"ICPS RL10 engine fires to boost the spacecraft in a higher orbit around the Earth (from 16 miles to 100 miles). When Orion reaches the highest point of its trajectory, the Interim Cryogenic Propulsion Stage, or ICPS, upper stage will fire its engine to raise its perigee to a safe altitude of 100 miles. Once this burn is complete, Orion and the ICPS will be in a stable low-Earth orbit. A system check at 42 hours after the mission began to ensure the orbit was correct, ranging from (112 miles) 185 km at the closest point to Earth and 1,616 miles (2,600 km) at its highest point." "Dlatego właśnie silnik modułu ICPS wykona kontrolowane odpalenie, podnosząc ten minimalny pułap lotu, a czyli perygeum do bezpiecznej, stabilnej wysokości 180 km."

Transcript excerpt

Oryginał w języku Polskim Open on YouTube

W przypadku lotów kosmicznych, jeśli perygeum znajduje się zbyt nisko, statek kosmiczny wpadnie w gęste warstwy atmosfery ziemskiej. Tarcie powietrza drastycznie go potem spowolni, a to doprowadzi do niekontrolowanego, no i niestety przedwczesnego powrotu na ziemię, a w najgorszym scenariuszu do spłonięcia pojazdu w atmosferze. Dlatego właśnie silnik modułu ICPS wykona kontrolowane odpalenie, podnosząc ten minimalny pułap lotu, a czyli perygeum do bezpiecznej, stabilnej wysokości 180 km. Gdy ten manewr się powiedzie i Orion osiągnie ustalone pergeum, około godzinę później silnik modułu ICPS uruchomi się po raz drugi. To kolejne odpalenie będzie miało na celu dalsze podnoszenie orbity statku kosmicznego, przenosząc go na wysoką orbitę okołoziemską. Od tego momentu załoga uzyska około 23 godzin na przeprowadzenie niezwykle drobiazgo

True
"the results delighted everyone, because the material obtained in the laboratory showed a powerful drop in shear wave velocity and a Poisson's ratio perfectly consistent with actual seismic measurements of the Earth's exterior. So, undeniable experimental evidence confirming the superionic nature of the core appeared before us. "

! Misleading
"An international team of scientists working with the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument known as Desi has published the results of their monumental research on the evolution of the cosmos using baryonic acoustic oscillations. When these extremely accurate maps of cosmic structures were combined with those known from cosmic microwave background radiation and traditional supernovae, scientists obtained a clear and unambiguous signal. Dark energy is not a constant value. "

"We will not wait another six decades for confirmation of which candidate is the correct one. In March 2026, the Indian orbiter Chandrayaan 2 will fly directly over the selected area. This flight is part of an ongoing lunar surface mapping project, so that in the future we know where everything is. "
