Description:
European scientists are turning an aircraft into a laboratory that simulates lunar gravity to prepare astronauts and technology for future moon landings as part of the NASA-led Artemis missions. <br/><br/>The moon is a strange little world. Only about 1.2% the mass of Earth, our planet's companion exerts a much weaker gravitational force on objects on its surface than the parent planet. As a result, an astronaut on the moon's surface feels as if he or she only weighs one sixth of their earthly weight. The same goes for all equipment the astronauts would use. It may sound like no big deal but this feeble gravitational pull creates all sorts of unforeseen problems that are difficult to prepare for in research labs on Earth. There is, however, one way to experience lunar gravity while still in the confines of Earth and explore these challenges before going to the moon: in a parabolic flight.<br/><br/>Credit: Space.com | footage courtesy: European Space Agency/Novespace/NASA<br/>A Future Studios Production

Since 10.000 years ago, the Tang Sect established a tradition of nurturing Blue Silver Grass soul masters, thanks to the fame of the founder Tang San. Many of them not being as successful as Tang San. The current sect master is Tang Ya with a Blue Silver Grass.<br/>One of the main reasons of the decline was due to the development of Soul Tools in the Sun Moon Empire, which made the hidden weapons that the Tang Sect produced to be ineffective against them in the war 4000 years ago, and the power of the hidden weapons was questioned. Because of the lack of income from then on the sect quickly declined.<br/><br/><br/>")
