It is the most powerful production car in the world. And it's electric Aspark Owl outpaces even the powerful 2000hp Lotus Evia. The Aspark company, whose main business is recruiting, showed at the showroom in Dubai the production version of the electric hyper car Owl. The first Japanese car in this class relies on a powertrain with more than 2000 hp. Power that guarantees acceleration from 0 to 97 km / h in 1.7 seconds, and the 300 km / h limit is reached in 10.6 seconds! The Sovata prototype was 1000hp, but the finished version already relies on the abnormal 2012hp. This made the Japanese model the most powerful production car in the world. Thus, it outpaced the Pininfarina Battista and Rimac C_Two (both with 1900hp at 2300 Nm), as did the recent leader Lotus Evija (2000 hp and 1700 Nm). The Aspark Owl power system consists of four electric motors and a 64 kWh battery. A larger battery version is also planned. This can be charged in 80 minutes on a 44 kilowatt charger. The system protects itself from overheating by company technology that analyzes the parameters of each cell. The top speed of the Owl is 400 km / h and the mileage is 450 km (NEDC). The car's weight is 1900 kg, mainly due to the battery. Otherwise the weight of the chassis with the deformable zones weighs 120 kg (carbon and steel), and the weight of the body (reinforced carbon polymer) is only 60 kg. The height of the Owl is only 99 cm. Aspark Owl is manufactured in Turin at the Manifattura Automobili Torino plant. A total of 50 copies will be made there, each costing 2,900,000 euros.

According to the study: The most difficult decisions are made on an empty stomach The survey was conducted among 30 volunteers divided into two groups The rooted belief that when we are hungry we only think about food is not true. In fact, we think much better on an empty stomach. According to a study published in PlosOne, hunger forces us to focus on big and complex things, to look at life more objectively, and thus to decide more rationally whether something is good for us or not. The survey was conducted among 30 volunteers divided into two groups. Their last meal was at 11pm and they had to abstain from eating until the next morning. One group had breakfast and the other did not. The test showed that hungry people had better decision-making abilities, easier risk taking and no problem in making more or less serious decisions.

An amateur astronomer has discovered a new comet in the solar system The discoverer is the Russian Gennady Borisov An amateur astronomer from the Crimean settlement Scientific and the discoverer of the first interstellar comet, Gennady Borisov, has discovered a new comet in the solar system, BTA reports. This is his ninth star object. In August, Borisov discovered an interstellar comet that was named after him. It is located at the boundary between the constellations Rhys and Cancer and travels at a speed of about 30 km / sec. The comet I saw days ago was called C2019V1 (Borisov). According to him, it is located on the border between the constellations Orion and Gemini and in a few days will enter the constellation Gemini. "This is a distant object flying among many stars in the Milky Way," Borisov explained.

The new Skoda Octavia can compete with luxury brands We visited the Czech National Gallery in Prague to witness the world premiere of the new Skoda Octavia. It is as impressive as the venue itself. The site is the National Gallery in Prague. 700 guests from all over the world have been invited and the occasion: the debut of the fourth generation Skoda Octavia. The model is the golden hen for Skoda in its 60-year history. And Skoda is the golden hen in the Czech economy, accounting for 10% of the country's GDP annually, a fact that was also respected by Prime Minister Andrei Babis. In front of a huge hall, Skoda CEO Bernhard Mayer has allayed my fears that the brand may be taking a different path from the one it is currently moving to: a total of 30 new models, modifications will be presented by 2022. , facelifts and derivatives of existing models. And with another production capacity, in the next decade, the brand can produce 2 million cars a year. This is just an overture to the nail of the evening. Under the sounds of the Czech Philharmonic and a solo rendition of Opus Octavia's violin, composed especially for the event by Jesse Miliner, the fourth generation of Octavia takes the stage. To continue the success story of its predecessors, which totaled over 6.5 million in sales, the new model has undergone a complete change. Outside, the design is evolutionary and expectedly eliminates discussion lights that have only remained on the market for three years. Now they are LED (optional also available in matrix), and the grid is an interpretation of what is already known by Scala. The stops were also scaled by Scala, but the real, cardinal and super surprising changes were made to the interior. The day after the debut on November 11th, I took a ride on the current Octavia and I have to assure you that the two have nothing in common. The new generation can now easily compete with the models in the upper segment in size and interior design - with luxury brands. As expected, the length (+19 mm) and width (+15 mm) have increased (with an identical wheelbase of 2866 mm), thus creating additional space in the foot area (+78 mm) for the occupants of the second row of seats. The boot is increased by 10 liters to 600 liters, and the combo is 30 liters larger (640 liters). But the interior design itself made me astonished. I can safely say that with it Skoda jumps one step up and can now compete with much more luxurious and expensive brands. The enhanced virtual cockpit comes with a 10.25-inch display and four different views. Octavia is the first model of the brand with Head-up display and Trizon climate control. The debut of the model also makes nine new driver assistance systems. The latest generation of infotainment system debuts with a 10-inch display. The configuration of the entire dashboard is brand new, modeler, luxurious. The materials are very pleasant to touch, and the inner door handles, which extend in metal slats along the door, are a work of art. The motor range is too rich. The base is a 1.0-liter gasoline with 110 hp, followed by a 1.5-liter with 150 hp. and a 2.0-liter with 190hp. (with 4x4 and 7 speed DSG transmission). The diesels will be 2.0 liters and 116, 150 and 200 hp. Each version will be available with automatic transmission, with 150 and 200 hp versions. can with 4x4. There is also a 130hp methane variant. There are two soft hybrid versions (1.0 TSI EVO e-TEC and 1.5 TSI EVO e-TEC), but far more interesting is the first plug-in hybrid. The Octavia iV relies on a 1.4-liter TSI gasoline engine with 150 hp and system output at 204 hp. and 350 Nm. The model will be able to travel up to 55 km over the WLTP cycle. The transmission is 6-speed automatic.

Why there are more hurricanes Destructive elements are becoming more commonplace New research shows that high-power hurricanes, causing the most devastation, occur about 3 times more frequently than 100 years ago. Experts have used a new method of measuring damage, which has found that global warming is a major cause of more serious damage. The scientists did not focus on economic damage, but focused on areas that were completely destroyed by more than 240 hurricanes between 1900 and 2018. Tropical cyclones, along with their hurricane-force winds and torrential rains, are one of the most devastating natural disasters. In 2005, Hurricane Katrina caused more than $ 125 billion in damage, and this year Hurricane Dorian claimed the lives of hundreds.

Germany increased the subsidy for electric vehicles to 6,000 euros The government of Chancellor Angela Merkel and German carmakers have agreed to increase aid for the purchase of new electric vehicles, writes Automotive Cluster Bulgaria. The aim is to facilitate the transition from combustion engines to electric vehicles. The so-called. An eco-bonus for battery-powered cars priced below € 40,000 will double to € 6,000 per car, with the car industry taking half of the amount. The subsidy means that a version of the new VW ID.3 equipped with some extras will cost around € 24-25 thousand, analysts at Evercore ISI said in a letter to investors. Germany is approaching Norway's leader in absolute numbers of new electric vehicles sold - 53,000 this year, according to the Federal Transport Service.

Massive thermonuclear explosion in space was detected The blast was detected by NASA A massive thermonuclear explosion was detected in space by NASA experts. The reason is a distant pulsar, representing the remains of a star that exploded into a supernova but did not form a black hole due to its small size. The blast sent an intense beam of light, which was captured by the NICER agency's orbital observatory, writes DarikNews.bg. The explosion happened in August and within 20 seconds it was able to release the same amount of energy it would take in the Sun for 10 days. "This blast was extraordinary," said Peter Bult, a NASA astrophysicist who leads the research, in a statement. "We see a two-step brightness change that we believe is caused by the discarding of separate layers from the surface of the pulsar and other features that will help us decode the physics of these powerful events," Bult added. Astronomers say the fusion is caused by helium, which sinks below the surface of the pulsar and merges into a ball of carbon.

New electric pickup and tractor unit against Tesla The Neuron EV startup showed the T / ONE transformer and a competitor to Tesla Semi. But for now, everything seems to be desirable. California-based startup Neuron EV unveiled two new models at the China International Import Expo in Shanghai: the modular T / ONE electric SUV and the TORQ tractor. Both models are designed on a modular platform, equipped with several power sources. Neuron T / ONE has been described as a "car for everything". Thanks to the removable exterior panels, the electric vehicle can be transformed from a chassis cab into a pickup truck, cargo truck or a five- or six-seat family bus. Interestingly, the cab configuration can be either centrally located or normally positioned. At the moment, there is a lack of specificity for both models. The length of the T / ONE is known to be 5.5 meters and the possible mileage is 480 km. In addition to the standard, nothing-to-say battery, T / ONE also relies on some (unknown at the moment) fast backup power source as well as rooftop solar panels. The driver's seat relies on a panoramic 360-degree view, guaranteed by a set of wireless cameras that transmit a picture on the screen to the driver. The intuitive automotive interface application gives full operational control and works with any portable personal device that, when connected to the car, replaces all physical buttons and switches. And if it's small, less is known about Neuron TORQ. Obviously, he positions himself as a competitor to Tesla Semi. The layout of the driver's seat is similar to that of the T / ONE, with a saloon with a bed in the back of a room. Nothing is said about a real market presence. In addition to TORQ and T / ONE, the Neuron EV portfolio also includes an electric bus, a MAP unmanned aerial platform and a HUB shuttle.

We will watch a rare celestial show next week The planet Mercury will stage a rare celestial show next week, passing as a parade before the sun and can be viewed in most places around the world, the Associated Press reports. The space phenomenon will take place on Monday and will last 5.5 hours. It will be visible in the eastern United States, Canada, Central and South America. The rest of the world - North America, Europe and Africa will witness part of the show while Asia and Australia will be excluded from it. Mercury gives us such transitions to the Sun about 13-14 times in a century. His next march is scheduled for 2032. Special eye protection will be required to monitor the phenomenon. Binoculars and telescopes with solar filters are recommended. The tiny Mercury will be difficult to see with the naked eye, given its diameter, 4,800 kilometers, and that of the Sun - 1,4 million kilometers. The small planet will cross diagonally on Monday in front of our star, left to right. Although its movement may seem slow, it will still fly at a speed of 241,000 kilometers per hour.

We are celebrating the 30th anniversary of the beginning of the Transition On that date Todor Zhivkov was removed from office November 10, 1989 marked the end of one age and the beginning of another. At the very date, a coup was made by the party leadership, BGNES reminds. Todor Zhivkov, who was an obstacle to the restructuring of Mikhail Gorbachev, was removed. There was Moscow's intervention through its most loyal people like Andrei Lukanov. The consequences of this coup are comparable to those of 9 September 1944. As a result of both coups, the system was changed. But after November 10, this change was slow and gradual, not as fast and sudden as after September 9. On November 10, a plenum of the Central Committee of the Bulgarian Communist Party was dismissed from the post of party secretary-general Todor Zhivkov, who has ruled solely for 33 years. The political changes in the country and the transition of Bulgaria to democracy and market economy begin. Changes in the former communist bloc began with the coming into power of the Soviet Union by Mikhail Gorbachev, which began a process of perestroika. The day before Zhivkov was overthrown in Germany, the Berlin Wall was demolished. Some members of the CC, such as Milko Balev and Dimitar Stoyanov, have not been informed. The news extends beyond the meeting. At the plenary session, the members of the Central Committee accepted Zhivkov's resignation without giving him a chance to conclude, and confirmed Peter Mladenov as his successor as general secretary of the Bulgarian Communist Party. The Plenum proposes that the National Assembly relieve Zhivkov from his post of Chairman of the State Council of the People's Republic of Bulgaria. On November 17, at the first sitting of the National Assembly after the plenary session broadcast live on television, Peter Mladenov was elected chairman of the State Council. Parliament removes from the Penal Code the texts that criminalize criticism of the government. The BCP abandons the one-party model of government a month later - on December 11-13, the Central Committee decides on a course for parliamentary democracy and proposes repealing Article 1 of the Constitution, which regulates the party's monopoly on power. The National Assembly voted for the cancellation only on January 15, 1990. In June 1990 the first multi-party parliamentary elections in Bulgaria were held. Todor Zhivkov died on August 5, 1998, without being convicted of crimes committed during his reign. After his death, all charges against him are dropped.

A mammoth trap of 15,000 years was discovered in Mexico The pits are about 1.70 meters deep and 25 meters in diameter Mexican anthropologists say they have discovered two man-made pits dug 15,000 years ago for trapping mammoths. Researchers at the Mexican National Institute of Anthropology and History said the pits were discovered during excavations of land that was to be used as a dump. Pits filled with bones of at least 14 mammoths were discovered in the Tultepec neighborhood north of Mexico City. Some of the animals were apparently slaughtered. The pits are about 1.70 meters deep and 25 meters in diameter. The institute said hunters may have chased mammoths into traps. Researchers believe they made the first ever human mammoth trap find. "This is the largest find of its kind ever made," a statement from the institute said. Researchers say at least five mammoth herds have lived in the area. Mexico has been the scene of mammoth surprise discoveries before. In the 1970s, workers building the subway in Mexico City discovered a skeleton of a mammoth while digging on the north side of the capital.

The supersonic car reached 806 km / h in the Kalahari Desert British supersonic Bloodhound LSR car reached 806 km / h on the seventh attempt on the dried up Hakskin-Pan high altitude lake in the Kalahari Desert, TASS reported. The car was run by military pilot Andy Green. In every attempt he has been speeding up, collecting data that will allow him to overcome the sound barrier and the land speed record, which is now nearly 1228 km / h. Green reached that speed in October 1997 in the Black Rock Desert, Nevada, with the Rustic Missile Car, the first to overcome the sound barrier. The creators of Bloodhound LSR hope to improve the world record in the summer when the car will be equipped with the rocket engines of the Norwegian company Namo. The pilot will again be Green. Now Bloodhound El Ar is powered by a Eurofighter-Typhoon jet engine. The Bloodhound LSR is 14 m long. It weighs 7 t. Its body is composite.

Cyprus strikes millionaires with "golden passports" The country began offering citizenship in return for investment after the island's economic crisis in 2013. Cyprus launches actions to withdraw 26 "golden passports" after investigating EU member state for possible breaches of investing citizenship scheme, AFP reported. Cyprus, an EU member since 2004, is one of three EU countries - along with Malta and Bulgaria - caught in a citizenship scheme. The main opposition communist party AKEL has called on the government to clean up its ranks over a passport scheme that, in its view, is damaging the country's reputation. The investigation has been launched following multiple media reports that family members and allies of Cambodia's strongman of the day, Prime Minister Hun Sen, have used the Cypriot citizenship program. Interior Minister Konstantinos Petridis said the cabinet would launch a "citizenship revocation" process for 26 people without mentioning their names. The Mediterranean island government has come under intense pressure after Reuters news agency reported that senior Cambodian officials received passports in 2016 and 2017. Those names include Cambodia's police chief, whose Reuters forces have been accused of "arresting Hong-based political opponents and forcibly suppressing anti-government protests." The agency also reported that the top cop, his wife - the prime minister's niece - and their three children are on the US 'blacklist for visas' for 'undermining democracy'. This week, the Cyprus daily Politis reported that a Malaysian businessman also received a Cyprus passport after buying a luxury villa in Agia Napa. He is accused of being a key player in the theft of billions of dollars from a Malaysian government investment fund. The businessman denied the wrongdoing and his whereabouts were unknown. The Cypriot government seized the "golden passports" of 9 Russians who obtained them illegally, RIA Novosti reported. Apart from Russians, Cambodians and Malaysians, passports will also be seized by wealthy Chinese, Kenyans and Iranians. Cyprus is facing pressure from Brussels to reform its citizenship scheme for investment purposes, which the European Commission has accused of helping organized crime groups penetrate the block. In February, Nicosia updated its criteria by imposing more stringent due diligence procedures. Petridis told reporters that the cabinet is determined to "strictly comply" with the criteria, which are now "much stricter". Cyprus began offering citizenship in return for investment after the island's economic crisis in 2013. According to recent rules, he issues a passport in return for an investment of 2.5 million euros ($ 2.8 million). The scheme, launched as a result of the rescue crisis in 2013, provided 1864 citizenships, bringing billions of euros. "This scheme has helped the country at a particularly difficult time," Petridis said. However, he acknowledged that "mistakes were made." All cases were processed prior to the introduction of stricter criteria. The government does not release the names of the passports provided through the scheme. Petridis said those whose passports were seized may appeal.
