Is it held tight just by the taper, or is there a keyway on the other side?

So, I am tracking down whether Cuauhtémoc has a controllable pitch propeller or a fixed blade propeller. The type of propeller will help in determining what caused the ship to back down under power and have the allision with the Brooklyn Bridge.

Gravity-defying robot! 🦎 VertiGo is a wall-climbing robot created by Disney Research and ETH Zürich that can transition between ground and wall. The robot can move on a wall quickly and with agility. VertiGo has four wheels, two tiltable propellers, and two tiltable propellers. One pair of wheels is steerable, and each propeller has two degrees of freedom for adjusting the direction of thrust. The choice of two propellers rather than one enables a floor-to-wall transition, thrust is applied both towards the wall using the rear propeller and in an upward direction using the front propeller, resulting in a flip onto the wall. P.S. Can you guess the year of development? 👀 ~~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

Operation of a Gate Rudder system. Unlike a traditional rudder arrangement, during transits the gate rudder foils can rotate their angular position, changing the hydrodynamic load on both the propeller and the foils. This is proven to have a positive effect on efficiency, particularly during varying sea conditions, weather or currents. For manoeuvring purposes, the function of the foils changes to a thrust-directing device.

A flapping-wing drone that actually handles its own vibrations. BionicBird’s X-Fly is not a propeller drone. It is an ornithopter with a six-axis gyro and precision G-sensors designed specifically to deal with the chaotic dynamics of wing flapping. • Sensor fusion tuned for flapping flight, not propeller stability • Ultra-light motors and custom kinematics • Biomimetic wings that alternate between flapping and gliding • No exposed propellers, lightweight and safe by design Instead of forcing nature into quadcopter physics, they designed the control system around how birds actually fly.

$Installing a Main Landing Gear (MLG) wheel on an Airbus A320 is a task where precision is non-negotiable. The wheel and brake assembly together weigh several hundred kilograms, requiring controlled handling and exact alignment on the axle. Every step follows strict Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM) procedures, including applying the correct torque to the axle nut within tightly defined limits. Even minor deviations in torque or alignment can lead to uneven wear, vibration, or critical safety risks during landing. Special attention is given to securing mechanisms that prevent the nut from loosening under extreme loads, as well as ensuring proper seating of bearings and components. Tolerances are often within fractions of a millimeter, and each step is verified through inspection protocols. In aviation maintenance, there’s no margin for error - every detail must be executed with absolute accuracy to ensure the aircraft performs safely under the immense forces of takeoff and landing.

Welcome to Dubai, where we are currently witnessing one of the most complex maneuvers in the maritime world: the drydocking of a massive LNG carrier. This isn't a simple parking job; it is a high-stakes industrial operation that requires weeks of preparation before the ship even touches the dock. The most critical step is ensuring the vessel is completely gas-free. Since we are dealing with Liquefied Natural Gas, every tank must be stripped, purged, and ventilated until the atmosphere is 100% safe for hot work like welding and grinding. In our industry, we don't move an inch until the sensors confirm there are zero explosive vapors left on board. Once the ship is safely positioned and the dock is pumped dry, the vessel begins a grueling 30-day transformation. For an entire month, the ship is a hive of 24/7 activity. We start by hydro-blasting the hull to remove years of biofouling, followed by several layers of specialized anti-fouling paint to ensure the ship remains fuel-efficient. Simultaneously, the engineering teams focus on the propulsion system, polishing the propeller to a mirror finish and inspecting the rudder and tail shaft for any signs of wear. Below the waterline, every sea chest and valve is opened and overhauled to ensure the ship’s cooling systems are in peak condition. This one-month stay in the yard is a marathon of precision and labor, but it is the only way to ensure a floating city of this scale can operate safely for the next five years. From the tip of the bulbous bow to the edge of the rudder, every square inch of the vessel is scrutinized. This isn't just routine maintenance; it is a total rebirth that ensures the backbone of global energy continues to move safely across the world's oceans.

🇷🇺 The deployment of Russia’s new high-precision loitering munition “will allow us to seal the enemy’s defensive line to a depth of 50 or perhaps even 70 km,” military expert Yuri Knutov tells Sputnik. The loitering munition, which has a destructive rate of “almost 100%,” per Rostec, will enable Russian forces to target enemy supplies and mobility, howitzers, radars, HIMARS, armored vehicles and command posts. The new system has a range of “tens of km,” and a warhead weighing several kg.

This is what engineering is about: Safety, Functionality and Efficiency in that order👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿 The sacred triad of engineering—safety first (because lawsuits and Darwin Awards are nobody's friend), functionality second (it has to work, or what's the point?), and efficiency last (polish it up once it's not going to explode). It's like building a rocket: if it doesn't kill the crew, and it gets to orbit, then we optimize for fuel sipping.

A Pratt & Whitney F100 turbofan is one of the most successful fighter jet engines ever built. First run was in 1972, it still powers the F-15 and F-16 more than 50 years later. Over 7,200 engines have been built, collectively logging 32+ million flight hours. At full afterburner, it produces up to 129 kN or 29,000 lb of thrust while burning roughly 800-900 litres of jet fuel every minute. The afterburner, it's a second combustion stage that ignites fuel in the exhaust stream to generate maximum combat thrust. This test cell isn't checking if the engine starts. It's measuring vibration, temperatures, pressures, fuel flow, and thrust while a machine producing 29,000 pounds of force is bolted to the ground. What here looks like a routine engine test is actually one of the most demanding demonstrations of precision engineering in aerospace, Each brand new F100 engine is worth roughly $5-8 million, reflecting five decades of continuous refinement in fighter propulsion. 🎥kaydenh0dge

This video shows a large marine rope or pipe covered with thousands of mussels and sea creatures attached to it. A worker on the ship is scraping them off using a metal tool. These sea organisms grow naturally in the ocean and can cover ships, ropes, and offshore equipment over time. Cleaning them is important because the extra weight and buildup can damage equipment and reduce efficiency

Biology is just nanotechnology that has had 4 billion years of R&D. What you are looking at is the Bacterial Flagellar Motor, arguably the most sophisticated machine in the known universe relative to its size. It is a true rotary engine, measuring only ~45 nanometers across, yet it is composed of over 40 distinct proteins that self assemble into a perfect mechanical structure. It features a rotor, a stator, a drive shaft, bushings, and even a "universal joint" (the hook) that transmits torque to the propeller; engineering concepts that humans "invented" eons after nature perfected them. The performance stats are mind bending. This biological nanomachine can spin at up to 100,000 RPM; faster than a Formula 1 engine or a jet turbine. Yet, unlike human engines that burn fuel, this runs on the "Proton Motive Force." It uses the electrochemical gradient of hydrogen ions (protons) flowing across the cell membrane to drive rotation, operating at nearly 100% quantum efficiency. It is literally a proton powered electric motor. The most exciting part isn't just that it exists, but that we are finally decoding how to build it. With the rise of AI tools like AlphaFold and generative protein design, we are moving from simply observing these structures to engineering them. We are on the cusp of an era where we don't just build machines out of metal; we grow them out of molecules.

Why do Christians think that when they die they go to Heaven or Hell? That is simply not true; there is a Judgment Day and the weighing of the soul at the end of the cycle. The Judgment Day occurs in the Age of Libra!

Ever seen 800-year-old stone pillars that look like they were made on a modern lathe machine? 😳 Deep inside the Hoysaleswara Temple in Halebidu, Karnataka, stand dozens of mirror-polished, perfectly cylindrical pillars; each weighing around 10–20 tons. Built around 1121 CE during the reign of King Vishnuvardhana of the Hoysala Empire, these pillars have baffled architects and engineers for decades. Their flawless curvature, concentric rings, and identical designs suggest that the artisans used some kind of rotating mechanism, similar to a lathe. The smooth circular marks found on their surface can only appear when a stone is spun while being shaped, something extremely rare in ancient construction. Whether or not true machines were used, what’s undeniable is the unmatched precision and artistry of Hoysala craftsmen. Over 800 years later, these pillars still gleam; a perfect fusion of engineering brilliance and spiritual devotion. Watch closely, the light reflecting off these grooves isn’t just shine; it’s history in motion.
