"and the weather for today is for a cool change with increasing winds" HSS

This NASA Hubble Space Telescope photo reveals a cosmic kaleidoscope of a remote galaxy, which has been split into multiple images by an effect called gravitational lensing.

 

Gravitational lensing means that the foreground galaxy cluster is so massive that its gravity distorts the fabric of space-time, bending and magnifying the light from the more distant galaxy behind it. This “funhouse mirror” effect not only stretches the background galaxy image, but also creates multiple images of the same galaxy.

 

The lensing phenomenon produces at least 12 images of the background galaxy, distributed over four major arcs. Three of these arcs are visible in the top right of the image, while one counter arc is visible in the lower left — partially obscured by a bright foreground star within the Milky Way.

 

The galaxy, nicknamed the Sunburst Arc (officially designated PSZ1 G311.65-18.48), is almost 11 billion light-years from Earth and has been lensed into multiple images by a massive foreground cluster of galaxies 4.6 billion light-years away.

 

Hubble uses these cosmic magnifying glasses to study objects that would otherwise be too faint and too small for even its extraordinarily sensitive instruments. The Sunburst Arc is no exception, despite being one of the brightest gravitationally lensed galaxies known.

 

The lens makes images of the Sunburst Arc that are between 10 and 30 times brighter than the background galaxy would normally look. The magnification allows Hubble to view structures as small as 520 light-years across that would be too small to see without the turboboost from the lensing effect. The structures resemble star-forming regions in nearby galaxies in the local universe, allowing astronomers to make a detailed study of the remote galaxy and its environment.

 

Hubble’s observations show that the Sunburst Arc is similar to galaxies that existed at a much earlier time in the history of the universe, perhaps only 150 million years after the big bang.

Toa Volant rules the skies with wings and jet propulsion force of a new breed of Elder Dragon. Valstrax

Faster, Stronger and Overwhelmingly Better then the real beast's speed, strength and stamina

smaller thrusters at his lower back to maneuver him forward

in first gear with Turbo as his lowest yet still fast speed and acceleration, this powered up toa can reach amazing velocity.

  

Rogue Toa: Volant

Model: Advanced Phantoka

Alias: Volaris/Jetstorm

Kanohi: Kualsi Nuva

Corrupted Golden Kanohi

(+1 Sonic type move)

able to create a super sonic reflective wall

(+1 Speed type move)

able to be in many places at once

(+1 Fire/Speed type move)

flame element boosts kicks & shinesparks that strike that a asteroid

(Ultimate Rider Power. Rider Kick)

(Any rocks and debris caught in the users running cycle will be launched as burning hot projectiles)

Power Level: Legendary

Elements: Super Sonic, Fire & Wind

Powers: Speed & Flight

Mask power: Hyper-travel

Creates a force field of energy around the user, allowing them to run/fly at intense speed safely without blurring the users vision, able to see everything in front of him, ignoring any negative effects from moving forward at high speeds and automatically prevents the user from colliding into obstacles

Faction: Brotherhood of Makuta

Abducted and separated from Toa Kualus of the Toa Vira, his twin, now an enemy to them while under control and Corrupted by Miserix himself as his personal invincible Toa Warrior & Guardian. Granted with the most advanced Armor, Weapons & several new Powers. His Speed & Strength are greatly increased and reaching god hood levels due to his devastating elemental powers & cutting edge Toa Tools in his possession. Nothing can touch him, his unbelievable agility allows him to be ten steps ahead of his enemies, even his new master.

  

Miserix's new rouge toa is his greatest accomplishment, in-fact too perfect and frighteningly powerful with infinite potential. But Miserix will have to make sure he wont get dethroned from power again.

 

.:Silver painted thrusters:.

Small red cones - Turbo Boost

Red cones with Flames - Over Boost

Extra thruster boosters - Hyper Boost

 

Elemental powers

Fire, Flight, Super/Hyper Sonic with Time Skipping and ultimate wind force

Toa Volant has a special means of defense if he is ever grounded and slowed down, not likely but will serve its use when its user is in a dangerous situation

the plasma shoulder mounted shields can deflect and absorb laser fire and all kinds of projectiles, strong enough to withstand a full blast from from a battle station, flag ship and gun fire of the mobile suit gunman universe, cable of wiping out a colony in one major beam assault. weak shots get deflected but anything stronger will hit but will only charge his shields and his own power.

if his shields are at full power, any more attacks dissolve into particles

Faster, Stronger and Overwhelmingly Better then the real beast's speed, strength and stamina

smaller thrusters at his lower back to maneuver him forward

in 2nd gear his boosters charge up a high amount energy that launches him with a over boost, leaving behind trails of hot flames instead of smoke

burning everything it comes into contact: the sky, clouds and ground all perish when he soars by.

this powered up toa can reach a new blazing velocity.

I was hanging out of Thomas Hawk's SUV with a 14mm lens. I loved the patterns that this image captured. The light at the end of the tunnel? It's Yosemite Valley.

Toa Volant conquers the skies with wings and jet propulsion at greater force of a new breed of Elder Dragon. Valstrax

faster, Stronger and overwhelmingly better then the real beast's speed, strength and stamina

smaller boosters at his lower back to maneuver him forward

in 3rd gear his thrusters automatically transform with omega level additional boosters installed, allowing its user to ascend at ultimate speed and acceleration

soaring to the extremes, faster then light and and sound,

this powered up toa can reach a new law breaking velocity.

This is not a photo I took, it is a small portion of someone else's photo which I have cropped and processed to illustrate a feature on the Porsche 911 GT1, for model builders. I believe this is "fair use" of copyrighted material, but it isn't mine and I have no ownership of it.

 

The rounded front edge of the intake "log" and the intake vacuum accumulators mark this as a 1998 engine, for the narrow cockpit all-carbon-fibre car that won Le Mans overall.

 

The reference pressure that is half the control of the turbo waste gates on the 911 GT1 comes from a little box in front of the throttle bar and adjacent to the #4 cylinder intake manifold to the right of center in this photo. The box has two separate air pressure hoses which go to the top of the dome over the waste gate control diaphragm. Engine intake manifold pressure goes to the other side.

 

Whereas the 1970 turbo Porsche racing cars had a knob in the cockpit which regulated the boost reference pressure, I can't tell if the GT1 driver has directo control or indirect control or no control of boost pressure.

Home Mechanic Series:

 

Changing the oil on the rear differential.

 

Unlike Landrovers the differential plugs are not 1/2" drive size, hence you will need to use a drain plug kit with a suitable socket on the tool.

 

Always remove the fill plug first, in case you cannot get this out and have already drained the oil. It is quite difficult to turn the car upside down to fill from the drain hole!

 

Most drain plugs have tapered threads hence they will naturally tighen. I have come across a number of drain plugs that have been very tight, but the impact wrench removes these easily. Prior to having an air impact wrench I used to put a ring spanner on the tool and use a jack to put pressure on the spanner by jacking it up!

 

Fill the differential until the first signs of drips are seen out of the fill hole. Then quickly put the fill plug back in.

 

Go for a quick test drive and check there are no leaks. Unless you run a limited slip differential in the back straight 75w90 or 80 grade is fine. I used fully synthetic on this Impreza because I already had it in my garage stock.

Subaru Impreza Turbo engine and gearbox oil change.

 

Note the fully synthetic Mobil1 Motorsport oil and Blue Print filters.

Sometimes instructions have no purpose, particularly on Japanese cars. My WRX STi is covered with instructions and warnings, this is just one of them:

 

So the summary is there is nothing to adjust, except the spark plug gaps, oh and you can check the valve clearances.

 

Have you seen where the valves are located on an Impreza's flat four engine?

If you need to read these instructions prior to checking the valve gaps, then you are seriously misguided on what a lengthy exercise it will be!

 

Good luck to you...
