Butterfly shooting liquid

The puddlers forcefully excreting liquid from the business-ends of their abdomens. When puddling, it is quite obvious that butterflies take in copious amounts of mineral-enriched fluids that they require for various biological functions. The biological processing of these fluids within the bodies of the butterflies to extract the requisite minerals must be extremely efficient. Once the minerals are absorbed, the remaining fluids are ejected from the butterfly’s body, so that there is no superfluous build-up of the excess fluids that the butterfly does not need.

China’s Long March 5B carrier rocket

China’s Long March 5B 長征五號B carrier rocket, carrying a new generation of manned spacecraft test vessel and a flexible inflatable cargo return module test capsule, ignited at 6:00 p.m. today 5-5-20 at Wenchang 文昌Space Launch Complex, and after about 488 seconds, the carrier and rocket were successfully separated and entered the scheduled orbit. It was reported that the flight as the first mission for the space station was successful, which kicked off the “third step” of China’s manned space program. The Long March 5B carrier rocket is based on the Long March 5, and is mainly responsible for major launch missions such as the China Space Station module.
The Long March 5B carrier rocket is about 53.7 meters long, with a core diameter of 5 meters, four 3.35-meter diameter boosters bundled, a fairing length of 20.5 meters and a diameter of 5.2 meters, fueled with non-toxic and non-polluting liquid oxygen, liquid hydrogen and kerosene as propellants, a take-off mass of about 849 tons, and a NEO carrying capacity of more than 22 tons, making it the largest NEO carrier rocket in China.

China Manned Space Office said they have identified the reason of two recent launch failure which happened on March 16th and April 9th in 2020. Over the past month, model team and aerospace experts have carried out in-depth problem review, cause analysis, and test verification. The location and mechanism of the malfunction of the two failed missions have been determined.
At the same time, a comprehensive quality rectification and review across the entire spaceflight is organized. Appropriate adjustments have been made to the rocket launch plan initially scheduled to be implemented soon.

Poem

敦煌出土《将进酒》原版

敦煌出土《将进酒》原版,
君不见黄河之水天上来,奔流到海不复回。
君不见床头明镜悲白发,朝如青云暮成雪。
人生得意须尽欢,莫使金樽空对月。
天生吾徒有俊才,千金散尽还复来。
烹羊宰牛且为乐,会须一饮三百杯。
岑夫子,丹丘生,与君歌一曲,请君为我倾。
钟鼓玉帛岂足贵,但愿长醉不用醒。
古来圣贤皆死尽,唯有饮者留其名。
陈王昔时宴平乐,斗酒十千恣欢谑。
主人何为言少钱,径须沽取对君酌。
五花马,千金裘,呼儿将出换美酒,与尔同销万古愁。

犬守夜,雞司晨,苟不學,曷為人,

蠶吐絲,蜂釀蜜,人不學,不如物,

幼而學,壯而行,上致君,下澤民,

揚名聲,顯父母,光於前,裕於後,

人遺子,金滿籯,我教子,惟一經,

勤有功,戲無益,戒之哉,宜勉力。
