Near infrared photo, James Webb Space Telescope

In the solar system infrared shot

The electromagnetic spectrum has a visible part to it. That part in the middle of the field or spectrum is 3500 MHz. This is about the broadcast range of 5G system that is used by radar at airports. On one side just below the visible part of the spectrum that we see in rainbows is the infrared, this can be seen on the brains of some creatures on Earth including snakes and it’s probably more of a shadow than an image. On the other side of the visible spectrum is ultraviolet and it can be seen by some birds that show a male and it’s feather markings in an enhanced coloration that is attractive to female birds making a connotation of a healthy mate.

So, by way of the national aeronautic and Space administration in the United States and the input of its partners in the development of the James Webb Space Telescope and other telescope technology here is a short of a near infrared picture of a planet in our solar system.

Love birds, 🎶

The ambient temperature has an effect on performance, (May be a good thing). The efficiency is not crtical to it’s viability to fly.

May result in pullback from Launch Pad causing week delays…read

Income range

Aggressive paid athletic performers such as Pro rodeo cowboys according to some sources may make upwards of a million dollars i per annum. The US average cowboy performers make under 40 thousand dollars a year and top out mid $70,000 a year.l

Injuries

Pro rodeos hire clowns to protect performers from excited livestock. However serious injury is a reasonable risk for some to take.

Trends

The romantic lifestyle of the Rodeo cowboy is always in jeopardy and for people to establish themselves on the pro circuit they risk injury and poverty on a long road up. The hundred performances a year is also a cumulative claim on a person’s life.

The local Rodeo Association in Merritt is hosting the local pro Rodeo Sept 3 and 4th “Rodeo is back” is trending.
