Description:
Launching next: PREFIRE<br/><br/>The twin satellites of this mission, launching on separate rockets, will help improve climate models by measuring the amount of heat lost to space from Earth’s polar regions.<br/><br/>The mission starts with Earth’s energy budget. The amount of heat energy the planet receives from the Sun should ideally be offset by the amount it radiates into space. The difference between incoming and outgoing energy determines Earth’s temperature and shapes our climate.<br/><br/>Polar regions play a key role in the process, acting like Earth’s radiator fins. The stirring of air and water, through weather and ocean currents, moves heat energy received in the tropics toward the poles, where it is emitted as thermal infrared radiation – the same type of energy you feel from a heat lamp. Some 60% of that energy flows out to space in far-infrared wavelengths that have never been systematically measured.<br/><br/>PREFIRE can help close that knowledge gap. The first of two launches is scheduled for no earlier than May 25 from New Zealand. Tune in to watch the live broadcast: https://www.rocketlabusa.com/live-stream

Cooke and Son quietly takes place.<br/>Cooke’s has the feeling of a living museum, one of the last vestiges of the city’s nautical past, but while the maritime fortunes of Hull may have changed greatly over<br/>years, there’s a feeling that somehow time stands still at Cooke’s.<br/>That’s Cooke with an ‘e’ - unlike the more famous explorer, Captain James Cook,<br/>also born in Yorkshire - but the name also comes with quite a story…<br/>Barnard Cooke – an optician by trade - clearly had an eye for opportunity. Back in<br/>the 1840s and 50s he’d learned his craft alongside his brother, the renowned clock<br/>maker Thomas Cooke of York. Thomas was a bit of a star – son of a Pocklington<br/>shoemaker, he was a self-taught mathematician and physicist who carved out a<br/>reputation building telescopes, later opening a shop in York, then a factory, as his<br/>reputation as a manufacturer of excellent optical instruments spread around the<br/>world.<br/>Thomas’s younger brother Barnard had been his right-hand man as the business<br/>grew, but by the early 1860s Barnard was ready to strike out on his own.<br/>The first rail links between York and Hull had been established in the 1840s, new<br/>fishing grounds had just been discovered, this is the peak of Victorian prosperity, Hull<br/>was a major trading port with Europe and the city was booming.<br/>Barnard set up shop bang in the centre of town, close to the busy Queens Dock,<br/>where he began to supply the nautical trade with compasses, sextants, barometers,<br/>clocks and telescopes.<br/>B Cooke and Son grew with the city’s fortunes. Solid and reliable, a Cooke compass<br/>became the captain’s choice, synonymous with quality.<br/>Over the years, the business changed hands and moved premises, finally coming to<br/>rest in the mid-1950s in its current location.<br/>Brian Walker is 71 - and still making compasses – but he was just 15 years old in<br/>1968 when he became an apprentice compass maker at Cooke’s.<br/>“Back then the docks were filled with boats.” remembers Brian, “We had a van that<br/>used to go there twice a day and each time he’d come back with a tea chest full of<br/><br/>gauges, sextants, compasses, chronometers, barometers for fixing – we had to sort<br/>them before the ship sailed.<br/>“We had 25 staff – you had the office staff, then the chart department, the gauge<br/>department, the sextant department, then on top of the building was the compass<br/>department.<br/>“You could walk out the door and get anything you needed to do the job – all the<br/>suppliers where there - Humber Rubber, Humber Electricals - there were ship’s<br/>agents, chandlers, shipyards that you were supplying, all that expertise – there was<br/>always somebody behind a counter that would help you.”")
