First time in the Universe: Spacewalk filmed in 360

<br />
<br />
<i>“The first-ever panoramic video from open space is a revolution both for VR technology and for the exploration of the universe,”</i> said Eduard Chizhikov, head of RT’s Space 360 project. <i>“Thanks
 to the project, any person on Earth can feel what it’s like to be in 
space from the comfort of their own home. Our video offers an 
opportunity to get closer to the infinite. Welcome to outer space!”</i><br />
<br />
RT’s
 Spacewalk 360 video immerses viewers in a walk through outer space 
outside the ISS alongside Russian pilot-cosmonaut Sergey Ryazansky and 
his colleague Fyodor Yurchikhin. The video—the world’s first-ever 
panoramic video filmed in open space—presents unprecedented views of the
 ISS, real-life cosmonauts at work, and our planet.<br />
<br />
<img alt="Photo published for ‘Nice try, Earth is flat’: Conspiracy theorists can’t handle first ever 360 space video — RT News" class="u-block" data-src="https://pbs.twimg.com/card_img/915596983326449664/Avy8fBDO?format=jpg&name=600x314" height="334" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/card_img/915596983326449664/Avy8fBDO?format=jpg&name=600x314" width="640" /> <br />
<br />
Back In November 2016, RT became the first network in history to <i>“send”</i> viewers to space, providing unparalleled <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAwf1zKFxf4" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">panoramic images of Earth</a><span style="margin-left: 5px; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></span> as seen from aboard the ISS. <a href="http://mashable.com/2016/11/21/360-degree-video-iss/#vxWXsODvLSq4">Mashable commented</a> that the video <i>“gets you as close as possible to the experience of actually being aboard the ISS and looking down on our home planet.”</i><br />
<br />
The
 video received enthusiasm and praise not just from internet users, but 
also from former NASA astronauts and well-known public figures. Former 
astronauts <a href="https://twitter.com/AstroTerry/status/800710376417533952" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Terry Virts</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/Astro_Clay/status/800721299010179072" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Clayton Anderson</a> said the RT360 video was <i>“one of the very best”</i>, and American director Oliver Stone <a href="https://www.rt.com/about-us/press-releases/space-journalism-360-stone/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">compared it to a videogame</a>. Chelsea Clinton, daughter of former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, posted the video on her <a href="https://twitter.com/chelseaclinton/status/800758339386875904" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Twitter</a> and <a href="https://www.facebook.com/chelseaclinton/posts/926511564115398" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a>, writing, <i>“Very cool. First panoramic view of Earth can be seen from this 360-degree video shot aboard the International Space Station."</i><br />

Whether you plan to

<br /><div class="mol-para-with-font">
<span id="ext-gen134" style="font-size: 1.2em;">‘Booze all contains the same molecule that messes with your mind,’ the video from the American Chemical Society explains.</span></div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font">
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">And this molecule – ethanol – is both ‘where the party gets started’ and where it ‘slows down.’</span></div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font">
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">According to the video, ethanol binds to the GABA and NMDA receptors.</span></div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font">
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">When it binds to the GABA receptor, it causes neural message firing to slow, making you feel calm.</span></div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font">
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">And, by blocking the NMDA receptors, it can cause you to feel tired, and even interfere with memory, the researchers explain.</span></div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font">
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">‘The more ethanol you have, the less you’ll remember, and this is what can cause blackouts,’ the video explains.</span></div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font">
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">While this is all happening, the ethanol also causes the brain to release stimulants: norepinephrine, adrenaline and cortisol.</span></div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font" id="ext-gen135">
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">According to the researchers, these work to ‘hype you up.’</span></div>

<br /></div>
</div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font">
<span id="ext-gen136" style="font-size: 1.2em;">As
 a result, your airways will open up and more oxygen reaches the brain, 
in turn enhancing your senses, including your perception of sound and 
light.</span></div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font">

<div class="mol-para-with-font">
<span style="font-size: 1.2em;">This is what impairs thought processes and can have a hand in making bad decisions, the video explains.</span></div>

LOS ANGELES , Nov. 15, 2016 /CNW/ -- DJI, the world leader in unmanned 
aerial technology, Tuesday introduced two new drones that raise the bar 
for professional imaging: Inspire 2, the best ready-to-fly platform for 
high-end film and video creators, and Phantom 4 Pro, the smartest and 
most creative flying camera of its size.<br />
<br />
"Professional filmmakers and photographers always push to create images 
that have never been seen before, and DJI never stops trying to give 
them the tools to achieve their vision," said DJI CEO and Founder Frank 
Wang . "Our newest flight platforms and stabilized aerial cameras are 
smarter, faster and more pow<i>er</i>ful than ever before. We can't wait to see how creators use Inspire 2 and Phantom 4 Pro to capture dazzling images."<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Inspire 2</b></span><br />
Advanced Imaging for Professional Results<br />
Inspire 2 offers powerful capabilities and is easy to operate. The 
nimble new magnesium-aluminum alloy body increases stiffness while 
lowering weight. It has a top speed of 67 mph and takes only 4 seconds 
to accelerate to 50 mph. With the new dual battery system, flight time 
is up to 27 minutes. A new forward-facing camera offers the pilot the 
best flight view for operating the master controller, while the camera 
operator receives a separate feed from the professional Zenmuse camera 
mounted on the main gimbal. The Inspire 2 supports the brand-new Zenmuse
 X4S and X5S cameras and will support additional cameras in the future.<br />
<br />
An entirely new image processing system, called CineCore 2.0, is 
embedded into the airframe, which allows processing large files faster 
than ever before. Inspire 2 captures 5.2K video at 4.2 Gbps for Adobe 
CinemaDNG RAW videos and leverages a newly-designed, fast CINESSD 
storage for a smooth work experience. A variety of video compression 
formats are supported by CineCore 2.0, including Adobe CinemaDNG, Apple 
ProRes 422 HQ (5.2K, 4K) and ProRes 4444 XQ (4K), H.264, and H.265. When
 recording 4K video in H.264 and H.265, the birate is up to 100Mbps.<br />
<br />
Inspire 2 offers professional capability and control suitable for many 
scenarios. With optional high-altitude propellers, Inspire 2 can reach a
 maximum service ceiling of 16,404 feet above sea level, and the 
self-heating dual battery redundancy system maintains good performance 
of the battery to -4 degrees Fahrenheit. Through an optimized mode, 
Inspire 2 streams smooth video at the widely used 1080i50/720p60 
broadcast standard. Enhanced Lightbridge video transmission makes 
smoother HDMI video possible.<br />
<br />
<b>High Performance and Professional Reliability</b><br />
The dual-battery system ensures that if one battery fails during a 
flight, the other will be able to provide power for a safe return to 
home. Stereo vision sensors have been included on the front and bottom 
of Inspire 2 for obstacle detection, and upward facing infrared sensors 
on top of the aircraft add protection when flying in enclosed spaces.<br />
<br />
The redesigned propulsion system can safely carry Inspire 2 through 
incredible vertical camera moves, climbing at almost 20 feet/second and 
descending at almost 30 feet/second. Redundant systems provide 
reliability for the IMU, barometer, electronic speed controller 
communication and satellite navigation modules. The master and slave 
controller range now extends to 328 feet and users can switch between 
2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz frequencies to cut through any noise for greater 
signal stability.<br />
<br />
<b>Creative Freedom</b><br />
Inspire 2's new intelligent flight modes expand DJI's computer vision 
technology to safely fly routes that give creators new ways to capture 
what they envision. Spotlight Pro Mode locks onto a subject during 
flight while the aircraft flies freely in another direction – and 
automatically rotates the aircraft to stay on the shot if the gimbal 
reaches its rotational limit. The forward-facing camera offers TapFly, 
which directs Inspire 2 to any point on the screen while avoiding 
obstacles along the way. ActiveTrack recognizes common subjects such as 
people, cars and animals, sending Inspire 2 to follow behind, lead in 
front, circle above or track alongside while always flying forward, 
ensuring the forward-facing obstacle sensing system keeps the aircraft 
safe.<br />
<br />
<b>New Zenmuse Cameras</b><br />
DJI is enhancing the imaging potential of the Inspire 2 by expanding its
 line of interchangeable Zenmuse cameras, which are designed for aerial 
imaging and communicate directly with the aircraft's gimbal and flight 
controllers. For situations that require a balance between weight and 
image quality, the new Zenmuse X4S has a 1-inch, 20-megapixel sensor 
with 11.6 stops of dynamic range and a 24 mm equivalent focal length. 
The Zenmuse X4S offers aperture control (f2.8-11) and a mechanical 
shutter that cancels rolling shutter distortion . The new Zenmuse X5S 
has a larger Micro Four Thirds sensor with 20.8 megapixels and an 
incredible 12.8 stops of dynamic range. The Zenmuse X5S camera now 
supports 8 lenses from wide angles to zooms. It shoots 20fps continuous 
burst DNG RAW (20.8 MP). In the future, a handheld mount will be 
available for the Zenmuse X4S and X5S cameras, bringing those cameras 
down to the ground for more flexible filmmaking.<br />
<br />
<b>Professional Accessories to Enhance Performance</b><br />
A series of powerful DJI accessories will meet the needs of operators 
under various filming conditions. DJI Focus, a battery charging station,
 DJI CINESSD, CINESSD station and other optional accessories are 
available.<br />
<br />
An optional DJI Crystalsky high-brightness IPS monitor features an 
ultra-bright screen that is clearly visible in direct sunlight and ideal
 for outdoor shooting. It comes in 5.5-inch and 7.85-inch sizes, with 
the highest brightness up to 1000 cd/m2 and 2000 cd/m2 respectively, and
 its dedicated system reduces video transmission latency. Dual Micro-SD 
Card slots within the screen make it easy to back up footage and can 
also be used to transfer and play back files. It operates in extreme 
temperature conditions from -4 degrees to 104 degrees Fahrenheit.<br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">Phantom 4 Pro</span><br />
<br />
<br />
The Chinese drone maker DJI already has a commanding position in the 
market for both consumer and commercial drones, but the company isn’t 
slowing down. In fact, it seems to be pushing out new product faster 
than ever, putting its foot on the throat of competitors already 
struggling to keep up.<br />
<br />
Today DJI released the Phantom 4 Pro, an update to the Phantom 4 unit 
which came out just eight months ago, in March of this year. The Pro 
boasts a better camera, more advanced obstacle avoidance, greater 
battery life, and additional intelligent flight modes. It puts some 
space between the top of the Phantom line and the new Mavic Pro — a 
cheaper, smaller drone DJI released in October which, at least on paper,
 was just as powerful as its larger cousin.<br />
<br />
<br />
The sensor package on the Phantom 4 Pro has also gotten a big upgrade. 
Prior to this, the DJI Phantom 4 and Mavic Pro had obstacle avoidance, 
but it only worked when you were flying forward. The Phantom 4 Pro has 
sensors on all four sides, meaning the drone can see and avoid obstacles
 while moving in any direction. This allows you to follow a subject 
autonomously while flying backwards or sideways. Thanks to the new 
sensors, top speed while in obstacle avoidance mode has been bumped from
 22 miles per hour to 31 mph.<br />
<br />
Another big change with the Phantom 4 Pro is that you can buy a remote 
with a built-in display. This was something competitors like 3D 
Robotics, Yuneec, and GoPro had all done, but DJI had always paired its 
drones with remotes that needed a mobile device for a screen. The new 
remote is much brighter than your average smartphone, and offers the 
perk of allowing you to fly without burning the battery on your primary 
communications device.<br />
  <br />
DJI says battery life on the Phantom 4 Pro has increased a touch, from 
25 minutes to 30. And it built in a bunch of new bells and whistles to 
its intelligent flight modes. The new drone will fly autonomously 
through much tighter spaces and more complex environments. And you can 
have it navigate to waypoints simply by drawing a line on your map with a
 finger.<br />
<div style="background-color: white; border: medium none; color: black; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
<b>Professional Imaging</b><br />
Phantom 4 Pro offers a powerful imaging system for professional photo 
and video creators as well as non-professionals who demand excellence 
from the camera and platform they use to pursue their creative visions. 
  The camera now packs a 1-inch 20-megapixel sensor, and almost 12 stops
 of dynamic range bring out levels of detail and low-light performance 
unprecedented in a flying camera of this size. Its mechanical shutter 
eliminates rolling shutter distortion in fast-moving scenes. Phantom 4 
Pro can capture slow-motion 4K video up to 60 fps at a maximum bitrate 
of 100 mbps . In addition, the Phantom 4 Pro offers H.265 video 
compression, which substantially improves video quality at the same 
bitrate.<br />
<br />
<b>Reliable with Enhanced FlightAutonomy System</b><br />
Phantom 4 Pro builds on DJI's original obstacle avoidance system with 
FlightAutonomy – three sets of visual systems that build a 3D map of 
obstacles in front, behind and below the aircraft, as well as infrared 
sensing systems on both sides. FlightAutonomy can position, navigate and
 plan routes for Phantom 4 Pro, enabling it to avoid obstacles in a 
sensing range up to 98 feet at front and rear, even in complex 3D 
environments. When returning to home and tapping to initiate auto 
takeoff or landing, the Landing Protection function is able to detect 
and help avoid landing on uneven ground or water. Phantom 4 Pro has 
high-performance battery technology that provides up to 30 minutes of 
flight time. The Phantom 4 Pro flies at 31 mph in P mode with obstacle 
avoidance in effect, and has a 45 mph top speed in sport mode.<br />
<br />
<b>Professional Control with New Remote Controller</b><br />
Phantom 4 Pro's revolutionary new compact remote controller comes with 
an optional high luminance display, providing a clear and vivid live HD 
view from the main camera as well as essential telemetry data, even in 
direct sunlight. The aircraft will automatically choose between 2.4GHz 
and 5.8GHz once powering on to gain a clear signal in areas with high 
radio interference. The new controller has a built-in GPS, compass, 
Micro-SD card slot and HDMI port.<br />
<br />
<b>Intelligent Flight </b><br />
New intelligent flight modes make Phantom 4 Pro the smartest flying 
camera of its size, opening new vistas for creators, such as the new 
Draw Mode that allows operators to draw lines on the controller display 
and direct the Phantom 4 Pro to fly that route.<br />
<br />
ActiveTrack recognizes common subjects such as people and bikes, then 
follows them from any angle while maintaining camera focus, and includes
 three new modes – New Circle, Profile and Spotlight.<br />
<br />
Narrow sensing enhances obstacle avoidance sensitivity so the aircraft 
can fly through complex environments like narrow doorways. TapFly now 
works backwards and comes with a new Free mode that allows a pilot to 
set the direction of flight, turn the Phantom 4 Pro or tilt the gimbal 
without changing the direction of flight. With the new AR Route feature,
 operators will be able to tell the flight route on the screen.<br />
<br />
As an additional safety feature, within a minute of losing GPS signal, 
the aircraft will automatically return to the last connected position 
and hover there precisely to wait for the pilot's command. With the 
enhanced return to home function, the aircraft knows where it should be 
going from up to 984 feet away and avoids obstacles along the route.<br />
<br />
<b>Price and Availability</b><br />
Phantom 4 Pro's U.S. retail price is $1,499 with a standard controller.

A hacker group claiming Islamic State affiliation has released a 
video threatening “<span style="color: black;"><a href="http://rt.com/news/258161-isis-threat-cyber-attacks/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=RSS" target="_blank">electronic war</a></span>” against the US, Europe, and 
Australia. They say they’ve already hacked sites belonging to “American 
leadership," an Australian airport, and “others.”<br />

<span style="background-color: initial;">The three-minute video,
  titled 'Message to America,' was uploaded by a group calling
  itself the 'Islamic State's Defenders in the Internet.'</span>
<br />
<span> </span></div>
The footage, accompanied by English subtitles, shows a hooded and
  anonymous figure speaking in a masked voice in Arabic.
<br />

<span style="background-color: initial;">The
  figure directs the video at the US and Europe, stating that an
  electronic war is coming. He warns that the group will carry out
  cyber attacks, claiming it is already monitoring the
  communications of residents in both locations.</span>
<br />

<span style="background-color: initial;">The
  video goes on to state that websites belonging to American
  leadership and an Australian airport have been hacked, among
  other sites.</span>
<br />

However, the group did not provide evidence of the hacking, or
  the names of any US officials.
<br />

The footage also reminds of previous internet security breaches,
  such as the Cyber Caliphate's <a href="http://rt.com/usa/221927-central-command-hackedcybercaliphate/" target="_blank">hack</a> of the US Central Command's (CENTCOM)
  Twitter and YouTube accounts in January.
<br />

<br />

<span style="background-color: initial;">But
  despite claiming to be aligned with the Islamic State (IS,
  formerly ISIS/ISIL), it remains unclear whether the 'Islamic
  State's Defenders in the Internet' is actually supported by the
  militant group, as it was not released by one of its official
  media outlets.</span>
<br />

The video comes just one month after US President Barack Obama
  signed an executive order allowing to sanction
  suspected cyber-criminals abroad with financial and travel
  restrictions.

Horrifying moment ‘ghost train picks up passenger’ and disappears into ‘parallel universe’

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<img alt="" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-107133" height="426" src="http://mysteriousuniverse.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/bend_creepy_curve_dark_fog_foggy_forest_mysterious-980867.jpgd_-570x380.jpg" width="640" /><br />
<br />
A recent <a href="http://mysteriousuniverse.org/2018/03/mysterious-hitchhiking-ghost-burns-holes-in-trucks-floor-mat/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">ghost story in Argentina</a>
 centered around a paranormal encounter that was once very common – the 
ghost hitchhiker. Thumbing for a ride has all but disappeared for a 
variety of reasons and with it, the scary tales of the dark stranger 
picked up on a lonely road.<br />
<br />
Another ghost story fading into obscurity, 
at least in the U.S., is the ghost train – a phantom locomotive that is 
often linked to a tragedy. Fortunately, trains still run in China and, 
as expected, so do the ghostly ones. A recent video appears to show a 
semi-transparent train passing through a station in China and has many 
wondering if it’s real, what caused it and what it might be a harbinger 
of.<br />
<br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="460" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/7BGIEo9LYmg" width="660"></iframe>

<br />
<br />
The video was uploaded to YouTube on March 14 by Hidden Underbelly 2.0 (see the video <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BGIEo9LYmg" rel="noopener" target="_blank">here</a><span style="margin-left: 5px; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></span>)
 and is said to have been recorded on March 10 by a closed-circuit 
security camera in the Baotou Railway Station in Baotou, Inner Mongolia.<br />
<br />
The station serves both the Jingbao Railway and Baolan Railway. The 
source claims it received the video from a security employee at the 
station. At first glance, it definitely looks like a transparent 
passenger train pulling in, stopping as if to unload and load 
passengers, and then leaving the station. There’s nothing to indicate 
with certainty the exact location (is it really the Baotou Railway 
Station and if so, where inside it?).<br />
There is no other motion in the 
video during the time the train is there.<br />

Is this a video of a ghost train?<br />
The comments run the gamut from 
definitely ghost train to an image from a parallel universe to a secret 
military cloaking train to a reflection in a window of a nearby train to
 a hoax.<br />
<br />
The <a href="https://www.express.co.uk/news/weird/933810/Ghost-train-caught-CCTV-rail-platform-proof-afterlife" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Daily Express online</a> says the last scenario is supported by <a href="https://www.ufoofinterest.org/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">debunker Scott Brando</a>,
 who claims it’s a merger of two videos and dates back at least to 2012 
to a railway station in not the Baotou Railway Station in Inner Mongolia
 but the Polezhaevskaya station in Moscow. Are those Russian hackers at 
it again?<br />
<br />
Ghost trains have been the subject of a 1923 play (The Ghost Train by
 English playwright Arnold Ridley), numerous movies (starting with the 
1927 comedy based on the play), a TV series and books such as <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Ghost-Train-American-Railroad-Legends/dp/188308976X" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Ghost Train: American Railroad Ghost Legends.</a><br />
<br />
Famous ghost train tales include the Silverpilen (or Silver Arrow, a 
Stockholm Metro ghost train), the St. Louis Light (which was duplicated 
and debunked by two students) and the phantom funeral train of Abraham 
Lincoln that is said to run between Washington, D.C. and Springfield, 
Illinois, around April 21st, the anniversary of the procession to his 
final resting place.<br />

Is there any event in Baotou that could be related to a phantom 
train?<br />
The area dates back to the Mongols, but they didn’t have any 
trains. On May 3rd, 1996, a 6.4 magnitude earthquake severely damaged 
the city, killing 26 and destroying the homes of nearly 200,000. Could 
there be a phantom train arriving to take the dead to the afterlife? 
Lesser events have created greater urban legends, not to mention ghost 
train stories.<br />
True or false, it’s nice to add a new one to the 
collection.<br />
As for now, the “What is it?” needle is pushing nearer to double-exposure … until the Baotou phantom express makes another stop.<br />
