Maneuvering Loads and the V-n Diagram. The V-n, velocity-versus-load diagram, Figure 1, describes the relationship between an aircraftâs. speed, its longitudinal (pitch axis) maneuvering. capability, and its structural strength. The. positive-g, maximum lift line indicates how. aggressively, at any airspeed, we can apply aft.
Fairbanks, Alaska. During the early 19th century, some of the best scientific minds of the period believed that the aurora was caused by the reflection of sunlight from tiny ice crystals suspended high in the atmosphere.
The auroras, both surrounding the north magnetic pole (aurora borealis) and south magnetic pole (aurora australis) occur when highly charged electrons from the solar wind interact with elements in the earth's atmosphere. Solar winds stream away from the sun at speeds of about 1 million miles per hour.The aurora borealis (the Northern Lights) and the aurora australis (the Southern Lights) have always fascinated mankind, and people even travel thousands of miles just to see the brilliant light shows in the earth's atmosphere.
