Globular Cluster M71
Messier 71 (also known as M71 or NGC 6838) is a globular cluster in the small northern constellation Sagitta. It was discovered by Philippe Loys de Chéseaux in 1745 and included by Charles Messier in his catalog of non-comet-like objects in 1780. It was also noted by Koehler at Dresden around 1775. This star cluster is about 13,000 light years away from Earth and spans . The irregular variable star '' Z Sagittae'' is a member. M71 was for many decades thought (until the 1970s) to be a densely packed open cluster and was classified as such by leading astronomers in the field of star cluster research due to its lacking a dense central compression, and to its stars having more "metals" than is usual for an ancient globular cluster; furthermore, it lacks the RR Lyrae "cluster" variable stars that are common in most globulars. However, modern photometric photometry has detected a short "horizontal branch" in the H-R diagram (chart of temperature versus luminosity) which is character ...

M71 (Johannesburg)
M71 is a major metropolitan route in the City of Johannesburg, South Africa. Starting in the northern CBD, it connects the centre of Johannesburg with the northern suburbs before ending in the outer northern city of Midrand. Route The route begins at an intersection with the M11 Clarendon Place in Hillbrow. As Empire Road is a dual carriage way, the west/east road is signed as the M71 while the east/west route is cosigned with the M17. The route heads west in Parktown, passing Pieter Roos Park before crossing Victoria Avenue (M9) and then later passed Parktown Boys' High School. Here it crosses Jan Smuts Avenue (M27) for the first time, continuing to the first junction with the M1 motorway allowing the latter's south bound traffic to enter and exit. Passing under the M1, there is another exit for north bound traffic from the M1 to this route as well as access to Yale Road and Wits University. Continuing west, shortly before Owl Street (M7), a left exit to a bypass road to this ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
M-71 (Michigan Highway)
M-71 is a state trunkline highway in the Lower Peninsula of the US state of Michigan. It serves as a connector between M-21 in Owosso to Interstate 69 (I-69) near Durand. The highway runs along a rail line in a northwest-to-southeast direction in rural Shiawassee County connecting a few small towns along its path. The highway dates back to the start of the state highway system in 1919. There were some changes made to the routing in the 1930s which increased its length. Two adjacent highways have been rerouted which affected the locations of M-71's termini. The last such change was made in the 1960s when the M-78 freeway (now I-69) was completed near Durand. Route description M-71 starts in downtown Owosso at the corner of Main Street (M-21) and Water Street. It follows Water Street southeasterly until it reaches Washington Street. The highway follows Washington Street south and over the Shiawassee River and turns southeasterly on Corunna Avenue. M-71 runs parallel to, a ...

Macchi M
Aermacchi was an Italian aircraft manufacturer. Formerly known as Aeronautica Macchi, the company was founded in 1912 by Giulio Macchi at Varese in north-western Lombardy as Nieuport-Macchi, to build Nieuport monoplanes under licence for the Italian military. With a factory located on the shores of Lake Varese, the firm originally manufactured a series of Nieuport designs, as well as seaplanes. After World War II, the company began producing motorcycles as a way to fill the post-war need for cheap, efficient transportation. The company later specialised in civil and military pilot training aircraft. In July 2003, Aermacchi was integrated into the Finmeccanica Group (now Leonardo) as Alenia Aermacchi, which increased its shareholding to 99%. Military trainers Since the beginning, the design and production of military trainers have been the core business of Alenia Aermacchi. The products include: * SF-260, piston-engined or turboprop-powered screener/primary traine ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Miles M
The mile, sometimes the international mile or statute mile to distinguish it from other miles, is a British imperial unit and United States customary unit of distance; both are based on the older English unit of length equal to 5,280 English feet, or 1,760 yards. The statute mile was standardised between the British Commonwealth and the United States by an international agreement in 1959, when it was formally redefined with respect to SI units as exactly . With qualifiers, ''mile'' is also used to describe or translate a wide range of units derived from or roughly equivalent to the Roman mile, such as the nautical mile (now exactly), the Italian mile (roughly ), and the Chinese mile (now exactly). The Romans divided their mile into 5,000 Roman feet but the greater importance of furlongs in Elizabethan-era England meant that the statute mile was made equivalent to or in 1593. This form of the mile then spread across the British Empire, some successor states of which conti ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
PM M71 Floating Bridge
The PM M71 is a Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRJ) licence-built pontoon bridge of the Soviet PMP Floating Bridge designed after the WWII. The PM M71 deployment process is the same as for Soviet PMP and was primary designed and used by Yugoslav People's Army. Development of the PM M71 began at the end of the 1960s in the MTRZ Sava Kovačević plant in Tivat, with the designation "Project 382". Production began in 1971 and deliveries were made to the Yugoslav People's Army throughout the 1970s and 1980s. Similar to the Soviet PMP, the PM M71 initially used Yugoslav-made FAP 2220 BDS/A trucks for transporting and FAP 1314 S/AV for towing and removing the RPP M68 tugboat. During the 1980s, the set was modernized with newer FAP 2026 BDS/A and FAP 2026 BS/AVG trucks. The PM M71 bridging set includes: *32 floating sections (pontoons), *4 abutment sections, *2 road covers, *12 RPP M68 tugboats, *38 FAP 2026 BDS/A trucks for transportation of the sections, *12 FAP 2026 BDS/A ...

RK 71
The RK 71 (from Finnish , 'assault rifle 71'), commercially M71, is a Finnish assault rifle designed and manufactured by Valmet. It is based on the RK 62, which in turn is based on the Soviet AK-47. Finnish Defence Forces tested the 7.62 RK 71 between 1971 and 1973 as a possible replacement of the RK 62, but logistics issues prevented its larger adoption by FDF. The rifle was also exported to Qatar. History During the development of the Valmet RK 62 both the Valmet development team and Finnish Defence Forces HQ were contemplating on whether milling the receiver was the right choice or not, as well as whether the sights should be open sights or aperture sights. In 1962 FDF HQ and Valmet developed a prototype stamped receiver assault rifle, for possible quick and less labour and material intensive wartime production, called ''RK X''. The rifle had a different receiver layout, but the action was same as in the RK 62. In 1966 FDF and Valmet reached an agreement on the development o ...

Shvetsov M-71
The Shvetsov M-71 was a Soviet radial engine built in small numbers during World War II. It was derived from the Shvetsov M-25, which was a license-built copy of the American Wright R-1820-F3 Cyclone engine. Development The M-71 was developed from the Shvetsov M-70, a failed attempt at a two-row version of the single-row Wright R-1820 Cyclone. It used components from the Shvetsov M-63, which was an improved version of the M-25 with more horsepower than the original. Development began at the beginning of 1939 and it was bench tested that August, but did not pass its State acceptance tests until the autumn of 1942. It weighed and produced . It was flight-tested in a Polikarpov I-185 prototype fighter in March–April 1942. A boosted version, the M-71F, was built in small numbers. It was flown in the prototypes of the single-engined Sukhoi Su-6 and the twin-engined Sukhoi Su-8 ground-attack aircraft in 1943–44 as well as the Lavochkin La-7 fighter in 1944.
