Parklife
''Parklife'' is the third studio album by the English rock band Blur, released on 25 April 1994 on Food Records. After disappointing sales for their previous album ''Modern Life Is Rubbish'' (1993), ''Parklife'' returned Blur to prominence in the UK, helped by its four hit singles: " Girls & Boys", "End of a Century", "Parklife" and " To the End". Certified four times platinum in the United Kingdom, in the year following its release the album came to define the emerging Britpop scene, along with the album ''Definitely Maybe'' by future rivals Oasis. Britpop in turn would form the backbone of the broader Cool Britannia movement. ''Parklife'' therefore has attained a cultural significance above and beyond its considerable sales and critical acclaim, cementing its status as a landmark in British rock music. In 2010, ''Parklife'' was one of ten classic album covers from British artists commemorated on a UK postage stamp issued by the Royal Mail. In 2015, ''Spin'' included the al ...

Danny Breaks (born Daniel Whiddett) is a British drum and bass DJ, record producer and record label owner. He is known for his experimental instrumental hip hop production, and early music career as the breakbeat hardcore artist Sonz of a Loop Da Loop Era.

In 1994, he established the imprint Droppin' Science and began releasing as Danny Breaks, moving with the evolution of hardcore into jungle, and then into contemporary drum and bass. The lab ...

Farout
is a distant trans-Neptunian object (TNO) that was discovered when it was away from the Sun, more than three times the average distance between the Sun and Pluto. It was discovered on 10 November 2018 by Scott Sheppard, David Tholen, and Chad Trujillo during their search for TNOs whose orbits might be gravitationally influenced by the hypothetical Planet Nine. They announced the discovery of on 17 December 2018 and nicknamed the object "Farout" to emphasize its distance from the Sun. is the second-most distant natural object ever observed in the Solar System, after (132 AU), which was also discovered by Sheppard's team in January 2018. , is away from the Sun and is moving farther away until it reaches aphelion in 2063. While is one of the most distant Solar System objects known, its orbit is nowhere near being the most distant since its average orbital distance from the Sun is 82 AU, which places it in the scattered disk and the 2:9 orbital resonance with Neptune ...

Far Out Corporation
Far Out Corporation were an Australian rock band formed in Brisbane, Queensland in November 1997. They were led by singer-guitarist Grant McLennan, formerly in The Go-Betweens. McLennan started the group with Ross MacLennan (no relation) on drums (ex-Turtlebox), bass player Adele Pickvance (from Davey Graney Band) and Powderfinger's guitarist Ian Haug. It was a side project for most of its members, other than Ross MacLennan, as they were in other bands which were in hiatus. The group's name is a reference to the rock supergroup, Far Corporation. In November 1997 McLennan was asked to provide an ambient audio track for a music-arts project, Occiput Hammerings, held at Brisbane's Metro Arts Theatre. Australian musicologist, Ian McFarlane, described them as a "conceptual art group with a pop orientation." Far Out Corporation was initially a one-off group to fulfil the commission and performed live at one of the six nights of the Occiput Hammerings display early in 1998. The gro ...

2018 AG37
is a distant trans-Neptunian object and centaur that was discovered from the Sun, farther than any other currently observable known object in the Solar System. Imaged in January 2018 during a search for the hypothetical Planet Nine, the confirmation of this object was announced in a press release in February 2021 by astronomers Scott Sheppard, David Tholen, and Chad Trujillo. The object was nicknamed "FarFarOut" to emphasize its distance from the Sun. At a very faint apparent magnitude of 25, only the largest telescopes in the world can observe it. Being so far from the Sun, moves very slowly among the background stars and has been observed only nine times in the first two years. It requires an observation arc of several years to refine the uncertainties in the approximately 700-year orbital period and determine whether it is currently near or at aphelion (farthest distance from the Sun). JPL Horizons computes an aphelion around the year 2005 at about 133 AU, whereas Pro ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
