The first blind Asian to climb Mount Everest. Photo: InHope Pictures “It doesn’t matter if you are disabled or normal, whether you are blind or have no arms or legs, as long as you have a strong will, you can always accomplish something that others cannot ,” Zhang told Reuters news agency. Zhang conquered the 8,849m high Himalayas on May 24 with three guides and returned to the camp on May 27. Born in Chongqing City, Zhang lost his sight at the age of 21 due to glaucoma. He was inspired by Erik Weihenmayer, an American blind climber who climbed Mount Everest in 2001. After that, Zhang started climbing with the guidance of a friend, Qiang Zi. Nepal reopened Mount Everest to foreigners in April after a period of closure due to the Covid-19 pandemic. “I was still scared because I couldn’t see where I was going and couldn’t find my center of gravity, so sometimes I would fall. However, I still think that even if it’s difficult, I still have to face it. It’s part of climbing. There is difficulty, there is danger, and this is what climbing means.”

A special point worth mentioning here is that most of the core technologies researched, developed and owned by Phenikaa Group are implemented by Vietnamese human resources who work for the Group, including the team. a team of talented and passionate young scientists and technicians who are “recruited” from Start-up, Spin-off companies. This represents the clear strategic direction that the Group is implementing – which is to conquer the pinnacle of science and technology in parallel with the reality of the aspiration to develop the young generation and raise the level of Vietnamese intelligence. BusMap application for public transport with 2 million users in Vietnam One of the technology start-ups invested by Phenikaa Group with the goal of giving wings to the young generation and realizing the Group’s strategic steps is a strategic investment of $1.5 million in the company. Vietnamese technology start-up owns the leading free public transport application in Vietnam – BusMap. This investment decision is both a desire to contribute to the development of a talented young Vietnamese generation, while creating a resonance of strength to perfect the Phenikaa ecosystem, contributing to accelerating the construction and development of a smart city. sustainability in Vietnam and the national digital transformation process, implementing the Government’s goals, orientations and policies. With the investment and patronage of Phenikaa in terms of people, systems and technology, BusMap Joint Stock Company officially became a member unit of Phenikaa Group and was renamed Phenikaa MaaS Technology Joint Stock Company (called Phenikaa MaaS Technology Joint Stock Company (called Phenikaa MaaS Technology JSC). for short, Phenikaa MaaS); step by step restructure, expand mission, vision and business development orientation, towards becoming a leading enterprise providing solutions, products and services to strongly promote digital transformation. comprehensive in the field of smart traffic, smart city in Vietnam. No longer an ordinary investment project, the fact that Phenikaa Group “pours money” into the young Vietnamese technology start-up BusMap is how the Group is “realizing its commitment” to developing the young Vietnamese generation and promoting the transformation of young Vietnamese people. digital transformation for smart traffic, smart city, contributing to the general development of society. A young Vietnamese technology start-up, when fully sponsored and officially a member of a large corporation, will be able to quickly transform and develop, bringing BusMap core technology into smart mobility applications and Comprehensive technology solutions. Since then, opening up great opportunities for thousands of businesses operating in the transportation sector as well as local governments to quickly access comprehensive digital transformation in the field of smart traffic and smart cities in Vietnam. . At the same time, this investment of Phenikaa Group continues to inspire the young Vietnamese generation to confidently and boldly explore and conquer knowledge, because surely, when young talents demonstrate their ability, bravery and passion, they will find “strong sponsors” who are willing to sponsor and develop, unleash their creativity to create high-class products, affirm Vietnamese talent and wisdom, open doors great door to the world.

These word-of-mouth statements are almost consistent with information from the US Senate hearing on a request to fund NASA with a figure of $ 585 million to invest in nuclear-powered propulsion technology in the fiscal year 2022. and other American efforts in this area. This means that Russia’s space nuclear energy program is not only for technical purposes, but also for geopolitical purposes. Russia’s current program has its roots in the Soviet era. The Soviet Union launched a total of 33 military satellites with the function of spying and targeting targets equipped with nuclear reactors into low orbit around the Earth from 1969 to 1988. Most of these satellites used reactors. Buk type nuclear power generation reactor, only 2 of them using advanced thermal electron furnace NPP Topaz with generating capacity from 4.5 to 5.5 kW, however, this project was suspended in 1986 . In the early 1990s, a Russian-American cooperation project aimed at continuing the development of the Topaz furnace, but this project was suspended in 1995. In the period 2000-2007, Russia also tried to find ways to cooperate with China. Nation in this field. Despite the economic decline for a long time, Moscow has been trying to continue its independent efforts in the field of the use of nuclear energy in space since 1998, and during the time of President Dmitry Medvedev in power, the This effort has been identified as a key priority for the Kremlin. The budget for this program of Russia for the period 2010-2018 is 17 billion rubles, divided between Roscosmos 9.8 billion rubles and Rosatom 7.2 billion rubles, equivalent to $560 million in 2010 exchange rates. However, the actual disbursement figure is much smaller. In 2010, only 500 million rubles ($16.5 million) were allocated for this purpose. Over the next decade, total disbursements reached nearly 10 billion rubles ($213 million), according to public information from Roscosmos and Rosatom. The results of these efforts have not been as successful as they initially suggested. For example, the technical requirements of the proposed product are an outer space nuclear reactor with a capacity of 1 MW of electricity and an ion thruster with a capacity of 50 kW. However, the reality shows that Russia is currently only developing nuclear power generation systems YaEU-25M, YaEU-25 and YaEU-50 with a generating capacity of 10-40 kW and propulsion using ionic force. 25 kW. At present, perhaps Russia is just stopping at the computational model run for more powerful reactors and engines. For comparison, NASA is still trying to design a 10 kW outer space nuclear reactor with a Stirling engine for the purpose of increasing efficiency, currently Russia is still revolving around the thermal electron model, and the problem of using Using engines or turbines in combination with reactors is still only a theory. It is hard to believe that Russia will design a nuclear reactor in space with a generating capacity of 1 MW or ion propulsion engines with a larger capacity in the near future. Anyway, Moscow is still trying to turn the results achieved into advanced applications in long-distance space travel or foreign politics. Due to a decline in space research activities in other sub-sectors, coupled with economic weakness, these problems have prompted the Kremlin to look for another trump card. While the development of nuclear reactors for space exploration is far from complete, the Russian government as well as industry is currently looking for the application of nuclear reactors to satellites. military. These satellites can be used for radar reconnaissance or electronic warfare (for example jamming) when they are deployed in low, mid or geostationary orbits. However, no tests of such satellites have yet been conducted, meaning Moscow is not ready to field such satellites in the near future. In addition, the promotion of nuclear-powered spacecraft could be used by Russian space and nuclear industry units as a tool to apply for funding, to promote a slow and risky research program. this. For its part, the Kremlin is still trying to blur its true purpose. They came up with the “Strategy for the development of nuclear energy in space by 2030 in 2019, and issued relevant policies for the first time in 1998. Even if Russian military satellites are used by Russian military satellites. Nuclear power appeared in 2030, it also did not bring about significant changes in the technical and military fields. However, Moscow is still trying to polish it as a tool to help shift political supremacy. First, Russia has consistently supported the ban on placing weapons in outer space. Second, Russia will not be able to stand in the forefront of space technology without cooperating with other countries in the field, so Russian leaders see nuclear technology in space as a way to develop. cooperation, even in times of growing hostility in the West. The Russian SPT-100 series Ion Thruster has been used on satellites since 1994.

Conquer the universe. Photo: Space News. The Korean Ministry of Science, Information Technology and Communication hopes that by becoming the 10th member country of the Agreement, Seoul will further expand cooperation in the field of space with Washington, participating in various fields. the Artemis space exploration program. Accordingly, about 10 years later, Korea will have development steps in space technology on par with the previous potential country. The impetus for Korea to accelerate in the space race Compared to the space powers, Korea has a late start, but the development has positive and rapid results. After the launch of Naro rocket weighing 140 tons and failed in 2013, in 2016 South Korea carried out a Project to develop a spacecraft to explore the Moon worth more than 197.8 billion won (more than 166 million USD). ). As planned, this probe will be equipped with a series of cameras, sensors and spectrometers to collect data on the Moon as well as conduct space connectivity tests. At the beginning of this year, South Korea decided to invest 615 billion won (about 549 million USD) in space projects this year, including plans to launch the first rocket built and developed by the country. new satellites. Accordingly, South Korea also plans to launch a new 200-ton Nuri rocket later this year while a second launch, carrying a satellite, is scheduled for May 2022. In addition, the country will invest 322.6 billion won in projects to develop technology and services for new satellites, and plan to launch a new generation of medium-sized observation satellites next March in Kazakhstan. and is developing a new geostationary communication satellite to put into Earth orbit. Along with participating in the common playing field, Korea’s first lunar orbiter (KPLO – Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter) scheduled to launch in August 2022 has also been developed in cooperation with NASA. In addition, ShadowCam, a device that can overcome visibility limitations to record images in dark areas on the Moon will be installed on this orbiter. ShadowCam is expected to return to the moon’s unlit areas to find potential landing points for the Artemis program. With this event, Korea has gradually developed domestic space technology, combined with the cooperation of other space powers in the world, will gradually occupy an important position in the field of space development. Generally speaking. With this participation, South Korea looks forward to setting a goal of sending its own spacecraft to the Moon by 2030. Accordingly, the country actively promotes challenging space exploration projects, by develop its own launch vehicle and by 2030 can achieve its dream of landing on the Moon. This first step will provide a solid foundation for Korea to conquer space. Korea wants to strengthen national security through this race? Over the centuries, we have witnessed many wars on land and at sea, and those wars have proved the strength of the victors and as well as the lesson of ensuring the safety of the nation, nation. And recently, we have heard and seen the so-called “ocean wars”, meaning the wars in the sea have also begun. As for outer space, decades ago, great powers in this field such as Russia and the United States developed it. And this same nation has also had competition in the conquest of space. The fact that Washington is conducting a manned lunar exploration program, a program to send astronauts to the Moon 50 years after the Apollo project in the 1970s is a sign that the US clearly has a great advantage in this field. race presence on Mars. However, experts say, so far, no country has been confident that it can send people to this planet located 225 million km from Earth. In the context of the race that has shown signs of heating in recent years, and with many worries that the Earth is becoming more and more crowded with humans, Russia and the US are both showing their ambition to soon bring humans to live. on the Red Planet and marks its sovereignty over space entities, including the Moon. From that perspective, the US wants to take action so that space activities can be transparent, preventing disputes over space activities. South Korea cannot stay out of this competition as an ally of the United States. South Korea has begun a feasibility study for a mission to discover the near-Earth asteroid – Apophis. This ensures competitiveness, but is also a first step to position the country on another planet with life in the future.

The 75 meter high eucalyptus tree includes 165 steps to challenge Australian adventurers Many visitors describe the experience of climbing the 75-meter ‘Dave Evans Bicentennial’ ancient eucalyptus tree as intimidating. Of course, the trip is not for those who are afraid of heights. Around the tall tree, people plug 165 ‘stairs’ which are iron stakes attached to the winding tree trunk. The Dave Evans Bicentennial eucalyptus tree, located inside Warren National Park, near Pemberton, West, is Australia’s highest fire observation site. The first time people inserted iron steps into a tree trunk was in 1988, marking 200 years since the arrival of British ships in Sydney in 1788. Now, this giant tree has become an attraction for adventurous tourists who want to conquer the towering tree and enjoy the panoramic view of the green national park. Adam Scott, a TikTok user shared a video of his recent conquest of a giant tree. According to Adam Scott, the only way to go up is to step on a series of iron bars hammered into the side of a tree more than 30 years ago. Adam Scott, who owns a TikTok account with more than 28,000 followers, said: “This is definitely Australia’s scariest attraction. This thing is so sketchy, how have they been around for so many years. “. In his first conquest, Adam Scott climbed to a height of about 25 meters above the ground. There are no seat belts or any instructions. On the way to climb the tree, there will be only you and the space seems to have no end under each iron stake. “If you fall, there won’t be anything to support you,” says Adam Scott. On the TripAdvisor page, many tourists who have joined the journey share that ‘if you are a thrill-seeker, you will love this adventurous tree climbing trip’, ‘Tree climbing is a great experience but sure. Not for the faint of heart’, ‘The distance between the stakes is very large so be careful’, ‘Although the distance is very large and 75 meters high, no one has actually died while climbing a tree’… To participate in this unique experience, you need to buy a Warren National Park pass, 12 USD, or about 276 thousand VND per vehicle, at the Pemberton Visitor Center. Then, traveling by car for about 15 minutes, you will see the old Dave Evans Bicentennial tree.

Accordingly, at noon on April 30, a group of 10 backpackers, with permanent residence in many provinces and cities across the country, came to register for temporary residence with the Pa Ve Su Commune Police and reported to the Border Guard Station. Pa Ve Su about the schedule to conquer the top of Pu Si Lung mountain. By this morning (May 2), there were 2 guides down the mountain reported that one person suddenly died and is currently at the location of the cave area, about 10 hours walk from the center of the commune. Right this morning, Muong Te district directed forces, including border guards, police and militiamen to cross the mountain to support the backpackers. By the end of this afternoon, a group of 5 people in the backpacking group had descended the mountain to the commune center. Initial information from the backpackers who went down the mountain first said that the cause of Mr. K’s death was likely due to the fact that the process of traveling was raining and sunny for many hours, leading to exhaustion and a cold. The stream area next to the rock cave, where it was determined that Mr. LM K had died. The commanding representative of Pa Ve Su Border Guard Station, Muong Te district, said that currently, the rescue force of more than 10 people, including 5 border guards and officers, has approached the scene and is on the way to bring the body. Mr. K and the rest of the backpackers went down the mountain. However, because it was dark, it was difficult to go, the way to the top of the mountain was mainly through the forest, so it is expected that about 11 o’clock tonight the group will be able to bring the victim down the mountain. Mr. Kieu Hai Nam, Vice Chairman of the People’s Committee of Muong Te district, Lai Chau province said that the peak of Pu Si Lung mountain is more than 3,000m above sea level, located in the border commune of Pa Ve Su. The road to the top of the mountain is very arduous, harsh in weather and takes more than 10 hours to arrive, so recently it has been very popular with adventurers from all over the country to explore. Pu Si Lung peak has not been recognized as a good tour or examination route. After the above incident, Muong Te district will direct the local authorities to organize warning signs and warn of dangers for backpackers before starting the discovery journey.

We have witnessed many young people’s solo trips, conquering roads throughout many provinces and cities across the country. Youth is the time when we have a great amount of time and health to realize the goal of discovery and experience, so as not to waste our youth. Therefore, it is not uncommon for young people to go on a trip. However, the fact that a solo “trip” lasting 7800km for 2 months through the Northwest mountainous roads made by a woman who is almost 60 years old really makes people “O-eyes, mouths”. letter A”. Ms. Nguyen Thi Bich Van (57 years old, from Gia Lai) with a passion for “traveling” by motorbike all over Vietnam has received the admiration of the “traveling” community. Although nearly 60 years old, Ms. Bich Van is still full of energy, “burning” with her passion for conquest and discovery. Although nearly 60 years old, her “fire” of passion for travel has never stopped burning, it urges her to make one trip after another. It started quite late because her youth was a series of days busy with work, family, and children, only when she turned middle age, Bich Van had the opportunity to realize her passion. “Passion for traveling came to life when my son said he wanted to pursue architecture and painting when he was in 10th grade. I supported him and decided that mother and daughter would travel, explore architectural works and beautiful landscapes across the country to open up their eyes, form artistic thinking and observation ability. The mother and daughter’s first motorbike trip marked my journey to discover the country,” shared Ms. Bich Van. The companion on the first trip, Ms. Van, is her son On the first trip, she and her son “traveled” from Gia Lai to Buon Ma Thuot and then down Phuong Hoang Pass to Tuy Hoa. Mother and daughter continue to move to Cam Ranh (Khanh Hoa), explore Binh Hung, Binh Ba and Diep Son islands. On the way back, mother and daughter visit Thap Cham, Stone Church in Nha Trang, Nhan Tower, Vung Ro, Mui Dien lighthouse, Ong Cop wooden bridge (Tuy Hoa),… and some other places. difference. Next, Ms. Bich Van also made the bold decision to make a solo trip by motorbike, traveling 7800km to conquer the Northwest within 60 days, from August 22, 2020 to October 20, 2020. Most recently, at the end of February 2021, Ms. Van and her son departed from An Khe – Gia Lai to Saigon along the coastal route, passing through Binh Dinh, Phu Yen, Nha Trang, Phan Rang, Binh Thuan, and Phan. Thiet, Vung Tau… Up to now, “photographer” U60 has set foot in 62 provinces and cities, climbing 26km of spectacular mountains. The remarkable achievement list makes many genuine young “experts” also admire. The “single” trip to the Northwest lasted 2 months with many “cold memories” Before making this memorable trip, Ms. Bich Van had prepared mentally, financially, physically and equipped with all the necessary elements during the previous 3 years. She has carefully prepared from personal belongings, car repair tools to “rescue” items for herself along the way in case of an accident with the full support and help from her husband, younger brother and children. . She also planned in detail each financial need to spend. On August 22, 2020, she started her solo journey from her hometown of Gia Lai to the Northwest by motorbike and conquered the four great peaks of the pass. With a passion for travel and a dream to explore all parts of Vietnam, at each location on her once-in-a-lifetime trip alone, Ms. Bich Van does not forget to keep memorable memories. The U60 woman shared that, until now, whenever she remembers going through tunnels, passes, conquering dangerous roads, she still can’t help but get chills. She affirmed, if anyone intends to travel the Northwest alone, they need to be fully prepared from will, health, to indispensable items such as: Medicines, cosmetics, phones, cameras. … Bich Van recalls: “The first trip in Ta Xua 3 days 2 nights was the first time I climbed the mountain. The next day, climbing to the dinosaur spine, I was about to give up because I was too tired than I imagined. But then I told myself that after overcoming many difficulties to come here, I had to persevere, so I continued the journey. Around 5 pm, it was already dark, my guide and my sister moved to an abandoned shack and lit a big fire to warm up the leftovers that the group left behind. That day, we slept outside, without blankets and curtains under the cold of the highlands. That night, it rained heavily, we had to sleep in the deserted tent. At 6 am, waiting for the sky to clear, I continued to move. After 9 hours, I reached Tram Tau, completing the route spectacularly.” After 26km of Ta Xua Palace, she continued to climb other palaces in Yen Bai and was completely impressed by the scenery of mountains and majestic natural scenery of the country. Conquering difficult and risky roads, Ms. Bich Van makes even young people admire and admire because of her will and desire to pursue her passion, dare to think, dare to do… regardless of age. his work. She joked: “When I get old, I will tell my grandson that in the past, my 57-year-old grandmother used to work hard to “live virtual” on Facebook to get every “like” she said.

Below is the 3-day 2-night schedule to conquer Nam Kang Ho Tao of readers Hai Le Cao. Choose the right route You can choose 2 routes to climb the top of Nam Kang Ho Tao. If you have good physical strength, experience and like to try difficult roads, you should choose to start in Lai Chau province and return to Lao Cai province. Choosing this route, you will encounter romantic stone streams and primeval ancient forests. The terrain of this direction is suitable for all subjects. Ideal timing Around February-March or September-November is the time for you to conquer this road. Dry weather, less fog will make it easier to determine the direction. You should not trek this route in the rainy season or after a long rain. The mossy cliffs are quite slippery, the streams will become dangerous rushing water. Schedule The first day: 7h: The group moves by car from Sa Pa to Thao A village. The distance is about 90 km. 11h: Delegation to the village, meet the porter, distribute food and drink before departure. Right after that, the group started the journey. The first 1-2 km I found the road easy to go. The terrain is not too steep, enough for us to warm up and catch up with the challenge behind. After 1-2 km, starting to come to the stream, the terrain is gradually complicated, slopes and big rocks appear. After climbing the slope, I encountered the first big rock with a beautiful view. You should check-in here to get the photos you like. Continue going, the main road is still streams and rocks. I met the 2nd and 3rd giant stones in turn. The Nam Kang Ho Tao road has a lot of repetition, but it is not easy to conquer. I am impressed with the 3rd stone because it is located in a high position, with water pouring down, creating a beautiful scene. After crossing 3 rocks, I immediately met a small waterfall with a cool blue lake. The delegation stopped here to swim, play and continue the journey. I see that those who are weak in this bow will have a hard time. Because the terrain is mainly streams and rocky slopes, it requires you to use your calves to jump continuously. You can overcome it by preparing yourself a support stick, which helps to take power from your hands to support your legs. After a long journey, the group finally reached the campsite. I ended the first day with a barbecue served by Mr. porter. Monday: 6h: The group wakes up quickly for personal hygiene and moves to camp 2. The road is mainly steep, but walking in the cool forest and fresh morning air, you will not feel tired. 8:30: Our group went to camp 2 to eat and rest. 10 am: The group continues to depart. The next road must continuously follow the stream. The boulders appear more often. You will have to jump continuously to go through this journey. After a long journey, we will come to the saddle area, which is an area divided on one side to Lai Chau, the other to Lao Cai. Because the place does not have a shack, if you leave your things, you should arrange them neatly to avoid passersby. Our group rested, had lunch here until 14:00 and continued the journey. I find the road to the top lighter because it has reduced the burden of the backpack. The rest of the road is less difficult, the slope is not too high. Near the top, you will pass through the bamboo forest. Gloves, hats or glasses will make you safer. 16h: The group reached the top of Nam Kang Ho Tao. From here, you can zoom out to see the majestic scenery of the mountains. After resting, taking pictures at the top, the group returned to the junction to leave their belongings at 17:30. The way down is always faster and easier. 18:30: Return to the camp, eat, rest, end day 2. The third day : During the trip, I was quite sad because Nam Kang Ho Tao was not as beautiful as I imagined. However, the last day when returning to Lao Cai was the highlight of this whole trip. 6h: The group wakes up, collects luggage. 7:00 am: The group begins to descend the mountain. This is the time when the sun begins to creep through the leaves, peeking at the stream bank. The scene that appeared before my eyes made me bewildered and tried to go slowly to take a closer look. On the journey down the mountain, you will encounter ancient trees of huge size or slopes like challenging conquerors. The sudden drop in altitude from 1,700 m to 1,400 m can take less than an hour for inexperienced people to conquer. 14h: I go to Den Thang board and move by motorbike to Sa Pa to rest and have dinner. 20h: Me and my companion get on the bus back to Hanoi in the night, ending the journey. Trip cost (2 people) – 2-way sleeper bus ticket / 2 people: 880,000 VND (recommended to book round trip ticket will get 40,000 VND discount) – Ticket to the forest: 500,000 VND/2 people (porter is free) – Food: 1,299 million VND/3 people (including porter) – Porter rental: 1.5 million dong/3 days – Rent a motel for porter to Sa Pa to wait for the delegation: 100,000 VND – Car fare from Den Thang village to Sa Pa: 900,000 VND/3 car – Total cost: about 5.2 million VND/2 people

Kami Rita and 11 other guides reached the summit of Everest around 6 p.m. after hours of climbing. Mira Acharya, an official with the Nepalese Ministry of Tourism, said that Kami Rita and his group were climbers of Everest this year. The climbing team fixed ropes on the icy route for hundreds of other climbers to climb to the top in late May. Last year, the routes to Mount Everest in the south, in Nepal, because of the epidemic. This year, 408 foreign climbers were issued with climbing permits. Admire the 51-year-old man who conquered Mount Everest 25 times. Kami Rita, 51 years old, first climbed Everest in 1994. Since then, he has conquered the roof of the world almost every year. He is considered as one of the Sherpa guides with expertise and good skills, contributing to the safety and success of hundreds of people to conquer the 8,848.86 meter high Everest. In addition to reaching Mount Everest 25 times, Kami Rita has conquered several other peaks among the highest in the world, including Mount K2, Cho-Oyu, Manaslu and Lhotse. He was also present at Everest base camp in 2015 when an avalanche swept through, killing 19 people. After that tragedy, he came under great pressure from his family to give up climbing. Good weather on Mount Everest only appears for a few days in May, favorable for climbers to conquer the world’s highest peak.

Due to the presence of minerals and other resources on the Red Planet, in the future, Mars could be an abundant source. All in all, the initiatives in this direction are impressive, but as always, there are nuances attached to them. Traveling to Mars on 1,000 rockets and creating land for 1 million earthlings as Elon Musk suggests is an extremely expensive and technologically difficult task. It is not necessary to list all the problems that arise when massive scientific works are devoted to this, just to mention the main “knots”. First, There is no technology that allows the creation of spacecraft with the ability to send people into distant space without having to receive a lethal dose of cosmic radiation. This problem could be solved by wrapping lead plates, but would lead to a proportional increase in the mass of the ship and a decrease in its carrying capacity. New engines were needed, but they are now beyond production. Monday, Solar radiation will remain a problem on the Martian surface. The Red Planet, unlike Earth, does not have a magnetic field that protects us from ionizing radiation. Astronauts will not have to walk on red sand dunes like in the movie “Total Recall”, but have to hide in bases hidden deep below the surface. Tuesday, Mars on Mars is cold and has practically no atmosphere, but the radiation background is 2.5 times higher than what astronauts on the ISS can tolerate. It is impossible to live in such conditions without a special space suit. There are also many other problems, but it is clear that expanding living space is an extremely important task for all of humanity, requiring accumulation and huge investments in technology. For this reason, scientists are seriously skeptical of Elon Musk’s initiative, especially when he proposes to carry out thermonuclear bombardments at both poles of the Red Planet. This will lead to higher temperatures, melting glaciers, the formation of liquid water and the release of greenhouse gases, which will create the atmosphere on Mars. After that, the settlers could walk on the surface without the spacesuit. But there is another way of looking at this “terrain” approach. Mathematician Robert Walker calculates that in order to carry out the first part of the plan, which would require at least 1 million nuclear bombs with a capacity of 100 megatons, they would have to be sent to Mars 3,500 a day for seven weeks to achieve. desired results. There are no such large numbers of nuclear weapons on Earth and the lack of means to deliver them to another planet. This is the first thing. Carbon dioxide reserves on Mars would not be enough to create a suitable atmosphere, even if the first problem were solved. Since the Red Planet has no magnetic field, solar radiation will gradually “suck” in the already formed magnetic field. This is the second thing. And finally, for some reason, Elon Musk doesn’t take into account that after so many nuclear explosions, the surface of the planet will be radioactive for a long time, you can’t walk there with a mask oxygen and plant trees. “Nuke Mars” is just a cover for the US to send nuclear weapons into space? In general, Elon Musk’s initiative is a nonsense and he himself cannot help but understand this. But why is this smart man promoting it? The head of Roscosmos – Mr. Dmitry Rogozin tried to answer the question: Anyone who calls for the “terrain” of Mars or other planets is well aware that this is just an excuse for launching nuclear weapons into space, which, if useful, is just to “terrain”. our “Earth. But it’s true, you can’t just send nuclear warheads to Mars. First, they will need to be put into orbit and accumulate somewhere along with the means to send them in large batches. Where is that? Suppose that a circular orbit station, which the United States and its allies are building, will be adapted for this case, with China and Russia as targets. But will the nuclear bomb then make its way to the Red Planet? It’s long been no secret that Elon Musk is working closely with the Pentagon on the space program and satellites. So why not try with the best cause, Mars exploration, to advocate for the idea of ​​​​putting a US nuclear arsenal in space, Mr. Rogozin concluded.

Although I have traveled to many places and conquered many mountain peaks with beautiful landscapes in the world, the journey to Nhiu Co San, Lung Cung and Lao Than is a trip that really leaves many memories with difficult impressions. forget. The trip is like reading a special book that each person usually only reads once. Photographer Hung Lekima and his friends have just had a trip to conquer the unique peaks in Lao Cai, where few people know about. He shares this journey with travel followers of Zing . Photographer Viet Hung Lekima atop Nhiu Co San. Cloud hunting season is usually from about October this year to April next year. We have three journeys to three different peaks in Lao Cai and Yen Bai from September to November 2020. Each time our group has from 15 to 20 members. The most memorable memory is the trip under the rain and mud, it took 8 hours to get to the shack at an altitude of 2,100 m, the rain showed no sign of stopping. The next day, we had to wait, watch, really wanted everyone to have more time to rest, so we started later than expected. When I finished climbing to the top, back to the shack, many of my companions left early, but there were also people who returned when it was already dark. Walking in the dark forest, slippery roads, raining… a heart-pounding experience… Lao Than – roof of Y Ty’s house It is said that it takes two stones to make fire, and it takes teamwork and cooperation to achieve great things. In times of fatigue when conquering the mountain peaks, I still see people around me sharing each other’s cakes, bottles of water, medicine and other drugs. Even unfortunately, someone got injured, walked slowly, someone stayed with the porter to help them… There was no shortage of words of encouragement to overcome difficulties together, especially when our group traveled a lot when it was raining, cold and muddy. When you face many difficulties while climbing, it is also a fertile ground to show the other world inside you, the world of compassion, helping people around, which are priceless things. Located at an altitude of 2,860 m, Lao Than peak is considered as the roof of Y Ty, in the territory of Phin Ho village, Bat Xat district, Lao Cai province. Lao Than with Nhiu Co San peak is a pair of mother and father mountains that the Hmong call it Hau Pong San. This is also an ideal place to hunt clouds. Lao Than – where the sun rises the earliest and goes to bed late in Y Ty. To set foot on the roof of Y Ty, we have to climb 8 km to the top, which takes at least 6 hours. If we want to hunt clouds on the top of Lao Than, we have to climb the mountain in the afternoon and stay overnight on the top to wake up early the next morning to catch the dawn, watching the white clouds fly. Nhiu Co San – steppe in the clouds Nhiu Co San is the 9th highest mountain in Vietnam with an altitude of 2,965 m, belonging to Nhiu Co San village, Sang Ma Sao commune, Bat Xat district, Lao Cai. This mountain is one of the unspoiled places with primeval forests and rich vegetation offering a variety of landscapes. This place has a very beautiful waterfall like a silk ribbon dropped from the sky. People are easily bewildered with the wooly path in the dense forest with mossy rock layers at the foot, wide view with majestic mountains. Nhiu Co San deserves to be one of the mountains in the north to conquer. Nhiu Co San is also known as Horn Trau mountain, because it also has another nearly equal mountain next to it. These two mountains standing side by side look like buffalo horns. Therefore, the world in the clouds here is different from other mountains. Standing here, you can see a huge waterfall of clouds flowing thanks to a buffalo horn next to it. From Sang Ma Sao, you have to go 7 km through the gravel and stone road to Nhiu Co San village to start the journey. To “touch” the buffalo horn, we had to climb 9 km, it took about 8 hours to get there. Usually, anyone who comes here also sleeps in a shack in the forest to conquer early the next day to see the sunrise and the sea of ​​clouds on the mountain top. Lung Cung – a beautiful picnic road in the clouds People often say “time heals all wounds” but I think it must be “nature heals all wounds”. Climb the mountain to see yourself not only living. After all, man is born from nature. When you return, put yourself in the heart of nature, whether unconsciously or not you feel so small and feel equal to all living things. It helps you to see things become lighter, regain inner optimism and bring fresh vitality after each trip. Located at an altitude of 2,913 m, Lung Cung peak is named after a village located deep in the rugged and beautiful mountains in Nam Co commune, Mu Cang Chai district, Yen Bai. To conquer this mountain, we had to sit behind a motorbike 15 km on a slippery road, our hearts wanted to jump out of our chests. Many sections can not sit in the car but have to walk in drizzly and blind weather. But after strenuously climbing to an altitude of more than 2,300 meters, a miracle happened. We were surprised: “This is the paradise of the heavens”. The sun is warm and welcoming. A whole river of white clouds played at my feet, like I didn’t know and thought a bit about how cold and wet the ground was… My heart seemed to burst. Even so, this is a relatively easy mountain to conquer. We climbed straight to the top in the day with 7 km and took 6 hours, to watch the sunset and then back to the shack. Early the next morning from the shack we continued climbing for about 1 hour to reach the top to watch the sunrise in the sea of ​​clouds. Nature has many miracles After countless hikes and flashbacks of the trips. I remember the early morning, the dark night, climbing the mountain in the cold mist, clouds and unknown winds… The hard work of “marching” just to watch the mountains coincide with thousands of mighty soldiers. “Mountains walk in the cold mist, mountains go in clouds, mountains go in the wind, mountains quietly watch themselves in the deep valleys, mountains are mysteriously herds of horses, mountains coincide with thousands of mighty soldiers.” Remembering the feeling of the night in the cold forest, it was hard to sleep. Remember the feeling of helplessness when your legs hurt too much, your back is tired but you still don’t know when you can get down the mountain. Remember the hikes in the pouring rain, cold, slippery roads and muddy feet. Remember the temporary lunches on the road that could not be lit because the wind was too strong. Remember how many times you were about to give up, or the most difficult and tiring times on the mountain, thinking that you would not climb any more mountains… Having appeared for a long time in the world, the sport of mountain climbing seems to be still quite new in Vietnam. Even many people think that it is simply another name for “phèo”. In fact, climbing is a form of adventure tourism, an outdoor sport where participants do not have any means of transportation other than their own feet. You climb mountains not so the world can see you, but so you can see the magical world of yourself. When we crossed the hills, mountains, plateaus and strange countryside by ourselves, we had to accept much more difficulties and hardships. And surely there will be no shortage of times when bored and tired, it seems that you can give up. But the feeling of approaching the magical world inside you, touching the very beautiful, wild and pure pieces of the forest and nature is truly worth a thousand times the hardship that we have experienced. by.

The contract will use the prototype spacecraft Starship, designed for a large crew with the necessary equipment for space exploration missions. Starship ships can land vertically on the surface of the Earth as well as other planets in the universe. So far, test flights have not been successful, but the group is working to build new test vehicles.

In early March 2021, the Russian Space Agency Roscosmos said that the country and China signed a memorandum of understanding to build a lunar space station together. The space station will be designed as a complex of experimental research facilities that operate on the surface or orbit of the Moon. Russian officials also announced that they will try new boosters to continue their lunar exploration program this year. Besides the US, Russia, China, some other countries such as Japan, European Union, India, Korea, Israel, South Africa … also announced ambitious Moon exploration programs in the coming time. Besides the Moon, conquering Mars is also becoming a target of fierce competition among countries. Just in February, the American Perseverance self-propelled vehicle, China’s Tianan-1 spacecraft, Hope of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) visited Mars one after another. According to space experts, the polls have different objectives but all show the interest of space powers to the Red planet. Not only is it intended for military and civilian purposes, the future space race is also related to economic benefits estimated to be worth trillions of dollars./.

From Antje Passenheim, ARD Studio New York How does the German discounter Lidl pronounce itself? The customers don’t care. “I only knew Aldi,” says one customer, “I think these are brothers who then broke up.” Well, something like that. No matter if it’s true: The New Yorker from Queens has lost her heart to the “German Supermarket”. She is completely obsessed with shopping in the bright new store that – apart from most US products – could be anywhere in Germany and has just opened in her Astoria neighborhood. The queue then moved around two blocks. “I am here for the third time this week,” says the customer. Fish and meat and German bread and vegetables – and in general: “The prices are great! Astoria has become so expensive. In this supermarket I can afford all the organic things.”

German chains put pressure on the competition

Lidl, Aldi and the Aldi-Nord subsidiary Trader Joe’s: They have become real competition for the large US markets. Lidl has only been around for three and a half years – with 145 stores now. After starting problems, the group now wants to conquer the east coast. Aldi has had over 2,000 branches since the 1970s – and the trend is growing, says US boss Jason Hart: “Our sales are better than the average of the US markets. And that encourages us to move into existing stores as well as new ones to invest. ” They are cheaper than the US competition. Whether with more own brands like Aldi or with more branded items like Lidl. Pallets in the aisles, cardboard boxes on the shelves – even in the glamorous city of New York, the economical German concept is popular, says Lidl spokesman William Harwood: “It’s the glamor of saving. Putting more into your basket. More about yours Bring family home. ”

Less is more?

Especially since even New Yorkers have been at the stove themselves more often since Corona and home office. And that without being constantly spoiled for choice, says Constantin Mellinghoff, who sells German groceries to retailers and markets in the USA: “If you go to an ordinary American supermarket, you will find at least ten different bottles of ketchup, for example.” Instead, Lidl or Trader Joe’s only offer one bottle – “and the quality is so good that you don’t need a second,” says Mellinghoff. This concept is well received in the tightly-timed New York gearbox, says Lidl spokesman Harwood: “You can do your shopping faster. You normally need 45 minutes, you have to go through 50 aisles with 50,000 items. With us you can get through in 20 minutes.”

German specialties, American special requests

Fresh pretzels, German sourdough bread, wheat beer and a DIY set in the special offer shopping basket: German discounters also score points with newcomers with seasonal items, for example with Aldi customer Tanja: “It’s nice to see a few German products. At Christmas, dominoes or gingerbread. Or Viennese sausages every now and then. ” Sometimes other customer requests get lost in the German representation: Wouldn’t the new Lidl in Queens also include kosher products? Wouldn’t the branch on the chic offshore island of Long Island also serve champagne? “German discounters” are acceptable everywhere, says Diana Smith from the market research institute Mintel. “The desire for a good price-performance ratio runs through all income groups. Markets like Aldi are also more often aimed at an audience that earns better.” The internal struggle of the German discounters for the east coast metropolis continues. Newcomer Lidl wants to come to Manhattan soon. Aldi is already there. In the customer ranking of the newspaper “USA Today”, however, Lidl is leading: In front of hundreds of US markets, the chain is in third place. Aldi followed closely in fifth place.

Our group of 10 people rented a private car from Hanoi to Tram Tau to stay one night, buried in warm blankets to sleep deeply, nourished the journey of climbing Ta Xua the next morning. Reuniting with the local guide at the motel, the medical group finished the medical report, the pickup truck escorted a bumpy red dirt road to the starting point, and began to conquer Ta Xua. From this position, for the next couple or three days, contact with the outside world will be interrupted because there are only seas of clouds, sun, wind, trees … Ta Xua sea of ​​clouds Through the small slope, zooming the view of the two giant terraces winding around the hillside, you will see the village of the H’Mong people, the people who are leading their buffalo to the field, the young group excitedly calculating the construction of the wooden house. , the children engrossed in playfulness, the tangerine dogs followed the stranger as if welcoming. On both sides of the road, plum trees, plum trees have just white spots and a few flowers, the scenery here is so romantic and peaceful. The end of the village opens up a slippery dirt road, perhaps because of the rain the night before, the grass and trees have the opportunity to wear a green moss-colored shirt with shimmering crystal beads so beautiful. The first day of the journey is just the warm-up step, the group only needs to get to Shack 1 to rest, the path is not difficult but the weather is not supportive. Pausing for lunch by the apple tree tree, the group excitedly climbed to the top of the turtle to take a photo, the sun was completely out, everyone had taken away the white clouds, leaving a sad, smog-colored background. Passing through the immense and endless bamboo forest, but the weather is not getting better, a rare golden sunshine shines down on the bushes and soon disappears. Coming to the shack, when the footsteps were a bit heavy, I suddenly saw white clouds peeping behind the tall trees, the mist was blown away, the sky was clear, the sun was bright yellow and bright, my feet suddenly lightened. like flying towards the sun, according to the call of a group of friends at the top of the mountain. I have come to the real “kingdom on clouds”, all around me are clouds, countless clouds, white and thick like a giant cotton mattress floating in the blue sky. In the distance, the road known as the legendary “dinosaur’s backbone” instantly appeared in the white clouds evoking a chilling look. The rays of sunlight gradually let go of the sky, and I lay down on the big rock with great satisfaction. It turns out, summer sunbathing at the beach really likes and winter to bathe in the sunset on the sea of ​​clouds even more wonderful. That evening, our group of 10 people from all three regions of the North – Central – South gathered by the flaming fire in the middle of the mountain, under the 17 full moonlight together watching the stars, joyfully singing. “Dinosaur backbone” on the way to conquer Ta Xua peak When they wake up tomorrow morning, the group has to cross the “dinosaur spine”, find the dense forest at the end of the way to touch the top of Ta Xua and return to the shack before late afternoon. “Dinosaur’s backbone” is a small, winding, undulating mountain trail running to infinity. The road has many long continuous slopes up and down, the difficult terrain without big trees to block the wind, many small rocks are easy to slip. Local people have added a cable rail to make the climb safer, but the feeling of playing with as if standing on the edge of the abyss still exists when we look back on the way we went. Passing the last slope of the “dinosaur’s backbone”, the path was easier, the scenery was like in another world, the trees were lush green, the large, long branched trunks covered with moss of shapes freak. Out of the mossy forest is Ta Xua peak. We took a few commemorative photos and took advantage of the shack. The last day of the journey is the most gentle and enjoyable. The days in the mountains were wonderful. Every morning, I am eager to welcome the dawn, waiting for the first rays of sunlight to cool my soul, and immerse myself in the sea of ​​clouds. In the afternoon, watching the gentle sunset, in the evening, you can lean your back on the ground together to count the stars … I had brilliant, sweet, sweet days in “emir on the clouds” like that. Thank you, Ta Xua!

Impressive export growth
Since the EVFTA officially took effect (August 1, 2020), Vietnam’s export turnover to the EU market has achieved impressive results. According to statistics of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, by the end of December 2020, Vietnam’s export turnover to the EU market reached 15.62 billion USD, up 3.8% over the same period in 2019; the average export value per month is about 3.12 billion USD / month. Loading and unloading area for export at Dinh Vu port, Hai Phong. Photo: Victory In the first 2 months of 2021, Vietnam’s exports to the EU reached US $ 6.3 billion, an increase of 22.7% over the same period last year. Although the EU is a difficult market, Vietnamese enterprises quickly approached and took advantage of EVFTA’s opportunities, resulting in a trade surplus in the first 2 months of the year with the EU market being 4 billion USD, up 36.3% over the same period. period 2020. The items with the highest export growth to the EU include: Rubber products; computers, electronic products and components; iron and Steel; seafood, vegetables, rice … For example, rice, after EVFTA officially came into effect, some rice exporting enterprises signed fragrant rice export orders with higher value to the EU, even having shipments for the first time. are exported for over 1,000 USD / ton. This has spread a positive signal to Vietnam’s rice export situation in both volume and price. Along with rice, a series of shipments exported to the EU market have enjoyed 0% tax rate as committed in EVFTA such as passion fruit, tiger shrimp, pomelo, dragon fruit, suitcase, bag, shoes … seafood products have recorded significant export growth to the EU thanks to the impact of EVFTA earlier this year. Seafood export value in the first 2 months of 2021 reached USD 1.01 billion, an increase of 0.7% over the same period in 2020.
The Director of the Export and Import Department (Ministry of Industry and Trade) Tran Thanh Hai said that the growth figures of exports to the EU are evidences for the efficient exploitation of markets under EVFTA by enterprises. This is also a remarkable result of the industry and trade in promoting propaganda about EVFTA and guiding businesses to take advantage of incentives through the following channels: Free Trade Agreement (FTA Portal), internet , Facebook… In addition, the foreign trade system has captured market information and arising issues affecting Vietnam’s exports such as changes in importing countries’ policies, technical barriers, timely timely information for ministries, branches, associations and businesses to respond promptly.
Adhere to high standards of “rules of the game”
Experts say that EVFTA’s challenges have been creating reasonable pressure for Vietnamese enterprises to adjust and change their production methods and improve their competitiveness. In fact, over the past time, many businesses have made efforts to change, have preparedness, invest in new equipment to process and produce products in accordance with the requirements of the EU market.
For agricultural products, up to now, Vietnam has 39 sets of geographical indications that are recognized for protection in the EU without going through registration procedures, providing great opportunities for businesses and farmers in Vietnam. . This not only ensures the benefits for Vietnamese agricultural products, which have been in this market for a long time, but also opens up opportunities for many new agricultural products to access the market. In addition, many Vietnamese enterprises have the capacity to meet the requirements of EU importers for agricultural products and foodstuffs when more than 6,335 hectares of fruit have been applied VietGAP / GlobalGAP and have been issued with regional codes. Planting meets export standards; more than 5,000 hectares of aquaculture farms were recognized to apply VietGAP / GlobalGAP; 100% of export basa fish farms were issued with a code of origin; 100% of fishing boats commit to say no to illegal fishing …
For the textile and garment industry, enterprises have focused on new investment in yarn production – fabric weaving accounts for a high rate of localization. Many raw material production areas have been opened with an exceptionally large scale, including domestic and foreign enterprises such as: Thien Nam Yarn, Yarn – Nam Dinh Fabrics, Phu Bai Yarn, Yarn – Textile 8/3, Yarn Texhong … Besides, businesses also gradually shifted to import raw materials to markets with trade agreements with the EU, meeting the requirements of cumulative rules of origin that EVFTA offers such as Korea or Japan.
In other industries, businesses are also actively exploring to meet the conditions of origin certification (C / O) to take advantage of incentives and are constantly improving the quality of products and designs. , label packaging as well as focus on information traceability to develop products in the EU market right after EVFTA comes into effect.
Quality is the decisive factor
According to a survey by the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI), in fact, not many businesses can catch up with the standards of this world’s most difficult market. Therefore, in the long term, businesses that want to access this market are forced to continue to change to meet the standards that the EU has specified. “Instead of trying to increase output and compete on prices, Vietnamese businesses need to improve their ability to meet market standards through technology investment, product quality control and improvement; upgrade the foundation of competitiveness in terms of business model, strategy, management, human resources, quality of goods and services according to EU standards ”- VCCI Chairman Vu Tien Loc recommended.
Offering recommendations for exporting enterprises, economist Nguyen Tri Hieu said that businesses must constantly improve product quality. Because European consumers do not care much about the price of the product, but focus on the quality of the product. In particular, the export consignments must ensure uniform quality, if not well maintained, enterprises will only step into the initial EU market, but it is difficult to compete and dominate this market in the long term. . “The tariff incentive is only an advantage for Vietnam to open the door to the EU, but it is difficult to keep market share in this difficult market if EU consumers do not see a quality advantage. Import tax reduction under EVFTA is not as important as whether Vietnamese products brought to the EU can be sold or not ”- Dr. Nguyen Tri Hieu emphasized.
Many experts and managers also believe that, to realize the great opportunities that EVFTA brings, businesses need to firmly, fully and accurately grasp the commitments in EVFTA related to the field and business activities. From that, they have the foundation, the basis for action, prepare resources, develop and implement business plans to exploit EVFTA’s advantages most effectively. According to the forecast of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, in 2021, Vietnam’s exports to the EU will grow positively in the context that the Covid-19 epidemic is expected to be better controlled, and measures to limit gradually. relax and EU economy is likely to gradually recover. This will be an important foundation for Vietnamese enterprises to take advantage of commitments in EVFTA more effectively and gradually dominate the EU market. “In order to protect Vietnam’s export industries from the risks of lawsuits against evasion of trade remedies, the Ministry of Industry and Trade continues to take measures against origin fraud. , enhancing post-inspection; proactively coordinating with competent agencies of the importing country in case verification of origin is required in order to detect and strictly handle cases of counterfeiting the origin of Vietnamese goods. ” – Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade Tran Quoc Khanh “In the coming time, Vietnamese enterprises must learn and grasp information about the EU market, from consumer tastes to regulations and standards of rules of origin, food safety and hygiene. … in order to improve the quality of goods, conquer the market. In addition, build sustainable chains from production to consumption to easily apply technology to production to speed up the quantity. , export product quality control. ” – Chairman of Vietnam Association of Small and Medium Enterprises (VINASME) Nguyen Van Than
