Description:
On May 8, 1962, NASA's new Centaur rocket exploded in mid-air during its first test flight. <br/><br/>The Centaur was an upper stage specially designed to launch heavier payloads into orbit. For its first launch, it flew on an Atlas rocket booster. The liftoff from Cape Canaveral went well at first. Then 54 seconds later, the Centaur suddenly exploded. Both the Centaur and the Atlas disintegrated at an altitude of nearly 30,000 feet (9,000 meters). An investigation determined that the insulation panels around the liquid hydrogen fuel tank couldn't withstand the pressure during the flight, so the tank ruptured. This was the first rocket launch to use liquid hydrogen in its propulsion system. NASA redesigned the Centaur and launched its first successful test flight the following year. Different versions of the Centaur have since been used to launch missions throughout the solar system, and they've even flown on space shuttles to help boost payloads out of low Earth orbit.

_how-to-make-sure-you39re-getting-the-real-deal-with-botox-cosmetic.webp "Over the last two decades, BOTOX Cosmetic has become a household name--making it the number one selling product of its kind, the one approved to temporarily make moderate to severe forehead lines, crow's feet lines and frown lines look better in adults. But people may forget, it is a medical procedure. Many people are interested in learning more about getting treated and there is only one BOTOX Cosmetic, but how do you know you're getting the real BOTOX Cosmetic? This FDA approved one-of-a-kind formulation through its manufacturing process and scientific rigor can temporarily improve the look of three areas--moderate to severe frown lines, crow's feet lines, and forehead lines in adults. Board-certified dermatologist, Dr. Michelle Henry teamed up with Allergan Aesthetics, an AbbVie company-the makers of BOTOX Cosmetic, and the only authorized suppliers of BOTOX Cosmetic in the US-to show us how to ensure product safety, quality, and efficacy. What happens in many cases is people use the word 'Botox' ubiquitously, not specifically for BOTOX Cosmetic. The FDA has stated BOTOX Cosmetic is 'not interchangeable,' which means that its safety and effectiveness cannot be claimed by any other product. There are no substitutes for BOTOX Cosmetic. Potential flags to look out for: significantly discounted product may indicate it's not the real deal, supplier claims their product is 'equivalent to BOTOX Cosmetic' or 'approved in another country,' and lastly, if it feels too good to be true, it may be. It's extremely important to only go to medical professionals who are licensed and trained to provide aesthetic treatments both for safety and to help you achieve your desired outcomes.
