Hurricane Season Risks and Preparedness
Tumblr media
Florida’s hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30. Hurricane Milton is hitting just as the state braces for more potential storms. The danger doesn’t end when the hurricane passes. After a storm like Milton, communities are left vulnerable to future weather events. The risk of another hurricane striking Florida before Milton’s recovery remains high.
Weakening Infrastructure – After Milton, homes and businesses will be more susceptible to damage from weaker tropical storms or hurricanes. Unrepaired roofs and weakened structures could collapse or fail under minimal pressure.
Flooding Risks – Milton’s heavy rainfall and storm surge will saturate the ground and fill waterways. This will leave communities vulnerable to even small rain events, with the potential for additional flooding.
Power Restoration Delays – With Milton causing widespread outages, the power grid may remain unstable for weeks, making it difficult for residents to recover fully before the next storm hits.
Preparing for Future Storms – Residents must begin making plans now for the rest of hurricane season. Stock up on supplies, make sure your property is secure, and stay informed about future weather developments.
Additional Tips for Hurricane Preparedness
To ensure the safety of yourself and your loved ones, follow these guidelines when preparing for a Hurricane:
Evacuate if Ordered – Listen to local officials and immediately evacuate if you are in an evacuation zone. Delaying could put your life at risk.

B-2 Stealth Bomber Demoes QUICKSINK Low Cost Maritime Strike Capability During RIMPAC 2024
The U.S. Air Force B-2 Spirit carried out a QUICKSINK demonstration during the second SINKEX (Sinking Exercise) of RIMPAC 2024. This marks the very first time a B-2 Spirit has been publicly reported to test this anti-ship capability.
David Cenciotti

RIMPAC 2024, the 29th in the series since 1971, sees the involvement of 29 nations, 40 surface ships, three submarines, 14 national land forces, over 150 aircraft, and 25,000 personnel. During the drills, two long-planned live-fire sinking exercises (SINKEXs) led to the sinking of two decommissioned ships: USS Dubuque (LPD 8), sunk on July 11, 2024; and the USS Tarawa (LHA 1), sunk on July 19. Both were sunk in waters 15,000 feet deep, located over 50 nautical miles off the northern coast of Kauai, Hawaii.
SINKEXs are training exercises in which decommissioned naval vessels are used as targets. These exercises allow participating forces to practice and demonstrate their capabilities in live-fire scenarios providing a unique and realistic training environment that cannot be replicated through simulations or other training methods.
RIMPAC 2024’s SINKEXs allowed units from Australia, Malaysia, the Netherlands, South Korea, and various U.S. military branches, including the Air Force, Army, and Navy, to enhance their skills and tactics as well as validate targeting, and live firing capabilities against surface ships at sea. They also helped improve the ability of partner nations to plan, communicate, and execute complex maritime operations, including precision and long-range strikes.
LRASM
During the sinking of the ex-Tarawa, a U.S. Navy F/A-18F Super Hornet deployed a Long-Range Anti-Ship Missile (LRASM). This advanced, stealthy cruise missile offers multi-service, multi-platform, and multi-mission capabilities for offensive anti-surface warfare and is currently deployed from U.S. Navy F/A-18 and U.S. Air Force B-1B aircraft.
Tumblr media
The AGM-158C LRASM, based on the AGM-158B Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile – Extended Range (JASSM-ER), is the new low-observable anti-ship cruise missile developed by DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) for the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy. NAVAIR describes the weapon as a defined near-term solution for the Offensive Anti-Surface Warfare (OASuW) air-launch capability gap that will provide flexible, long-range, advanced, anti-surface capability against high-threat maritime targets.
QUICKSINK
Remarkably, in a collaborative effort with the U.S. Navy, a U.S. Air Force B-2 Spirit stealth bomber also took part in the second SINKEX, demonstrating a low-cost, air-delivered method for neutralizing surface vessels using the QUICKSINK. Funded by the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering, the QUICKSINK experiment aims to provide cost-effective solutions to quickly neutralize maritime threats over vast ocean areas, showcasing the flexibility of the joint force.
The Quicksink initiative, in collaboration with the U.S. Navy, is designed to offer innovative solutions for swiftly neutralizing stationary or moving maritime targets at a low cost, showcasing the adaptability of joint military operations for future combat scenarios. “Quicksink is distinctive as it brings new capabilities to both current and future Department of Defense weapon systems, offering combatant commanders and national leaders fresh methods to counter maritime threats,” explained Kirk Herzog, the program manager at the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL).
Traditionally, enemy ships are targeted using submarine-launched heavyweight torpedoes, which, while effective, come with high costs and limited deployment capabilities among naval assets. “Heavyweight torpedoes are efficient at sinking large ships but are expensive and deployed by a limited number of naval platforms,” stated Maj. Andrew Swanson, division chief of Advanced Programs at the 85th Test and Evaluation Squadron. “Quicksink provides a cost-effective and agile alternative that could be used by a majority of Air Force combat aircraft, thereby expanding the options available to combatant commanders and warfighters.”
Regarding weapon guidance, the QUICKSINK kit combines a GBU-31/B Joint Direct Attack Munition’s existing GPS-assisted inertial navigation system (INS) guidance in the tail with a new radar seeker installed on the nose combined with an IIR (Imaging Infra-Red) camera mounted in a fairing on the side. When released, the bomb uses the standard JDAM kit to glide to the target area and the seeker/camera to lock on the ship. Once lock on is achieved, the guidance system directs the bomb to detonate near the hull below the waterline.
Previous QUICKSINK demonstrations in 2021 and 2022 featured F-15E Strike Eagles deploying modified 2,000-pound GBU-31 JDAMs. This marks the very first time a B-2 Spirit has been publicly reported to test this anti-ship capability. Considering a B-2 can carry up to 16 GBU-31 JDAMs, this highlights the significant anti-surface firepower a single stealth bomber can bring to a maritime conflict scenario.

SINKEXs
“Sinking exercises allow us to hone our skills, learn from one another, and gain real-world experience,” stated U.S. Navy Vice Adm. John Wade, the RIMPAC 2024 Combined Task Force Commander in a public statement. “These drills demonstrate our commitment to maintaining a safe and open Indo-Pacific region.”
Ships used in SINKEXs, known as hulks, are prepared in strict compliance with Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations under a general permit the Navy holds pursuant to the Marine Protection, Research, and Sanctuaries Act. Each SINKEX requires the hulk to sink in water at least 6,000 feet deep and more than 50 nautical miles from land.
In line with EPA guidelines, before a SINKEX, the Navy thoroughly cleans the hulk, removing all materials that could harm the marine environment, including polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), petroleum, trash, and other hazardous materials. The cleaning process is documented and reported to the EPA before and after the SINKEX.

SINKEXs are conducted only after the area is surveyed to ensure no people, marine vessels, aircraft, or marine species are present. These exercises comply with the National Environmental Policy Act and are executed following permits and authorizations under the Marine Mammal Protection Act, Endangered Species Act, and Marine Protection, Research, and Sanctuaries Act.
The ex-Dubuque, an Austin-class amphibious transport dock, was commissioned on September 1, 1967, and served in Vietnam, Operation Desert Shield, and other missions before being decommissioned in June 2011. The ex-Tarawa, the lead amphibious assault ship of its class, was commissioned on May 29, 1976, participated in numerous operations including Desert Shield and Iraqi Freedom, and was decommissioned in March 2009.
This year marks the second time a Tarawa-class ship has been used for a SINKEX, following the sinking of the ex-USS Belleau Wood (LHA 3) during RIMPAC 2006.

NASA anticipates lunar findings from next-generation retroreflector
Apollo astronauts set up mirror arrays, or "retroreflectors," on the moon to accurately reflect laser light beamed at them from Earth with minimal scattering or diffusion. Retroreflectors are mirrors that reflect the incoming light back in the same incoming direction.
Calculating the time required for the beams to bounce back allowed scientists to precisely measure the moon's shape and distance from Earth, both of which are directly affected by Earth's gravitational pull. More than 50 years later, on the cusp of NASA's crewed Artemis missions to the moon, lunar research still leverages data from those Apollo-era retroreflectors.
As NASA prepares for the science and discoveries of the agency's Artemis campaign, state-of-the-art retroreflector technology is expected to significantly expand our knowledge about Earth's sole natural satellite, its geological processes, the properties of the lunar crust and the structure of lunar interior, and how the Earth-moon system is changing over time. This technology will also allow high-precision tests of Einstein's theory of gravity, or general relativity.
That's the anticipated objective of an innovative science instrument called NGLR (Next Generation Lunar Retroreflector), one of 10 NASA payloads set to fly aboard the next lunar delivery for the agency's CLPS (Commercial Lunar Payload Services) initiative. NGLR-1 will be carried to the surface by Firefly Aerospace's Blue Ghost 1 lunar lander.
Developed by researchers at the University of Maryland in College Park, NGLR-1 will be delivered to the lunar surface, located on the Blue Ghost lander, to reflect very short laser pulses from Earth-based lunar laser ranging observatories, which could greatly improve on Apollo-era results with sub-millimeter-precision range measurements.
If successful, its findings will expand humanity's understanding of the moon's inner structure and support new investigations of astrophysics, cosmology, and lunar physics—including shifts in the moon's liquid core as it orbits Earth, which may cause seismic activity on the lunar surface.
"NASA has more than half a century of experience with retroreflectors, but NGLR-1 promises to deliver findings an order of magnitude more accurate than Apollo-era reflectors," said Dennis Harris, who manages the NGLR payload for the CLPS initiative at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama.
Deployment of the NGLR payload is just the first step, Harris noted. A second NGLR retroreflector, called the Artemis Lunar Laser Retroreflector (ALLR), is currently a candidate payload for flight on NASA's Artemis III mission to the moon and could be set up near the lunar south pole. A third is expected to be manifested on a future CLPS delivery to a non-polar location.
"Once all three retroreflectors are operating, they are expected to deliver unprecedented opportunities to learn more about the moon and its relationship with Earth," Harris said.
Under the CLPS model, NASA is investing in commercial delivery services to the moon to enable industry growth and support long-term lunar exploration. As a primary customer for CLPS deliveries, NASA aims to be one of many customers on future flights. NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, manages the development of seven of the 10 CLPS payloads carried on Firefly's Blue Ghost lunar lander.

Using Docker for Full Stack Development and Deployment
Tumblr media
1. Introduction to Docker
What is Docker? Docker is an open-source platform that automates the deployment, scaling, and management of applications inside containers. A container packages your application and its dependencies, ensuring it runs consistently across different computing environments.
Containers vs Virtual Machines (VMs)
Containers are lightweight and use fewer resources than VMs because they share the host operating system’s kernel, while VMs simulate an entire operating system. Containers are more efficient and easier to deploy.
Docker containers provide faster startup times, less overhead, and portability across development, staging, and production environments.
Benefits of Docker in Full Stack Development
Portability: Docker ensures that your application runs the same way regardless of the environment (dev, test, or production).
Consistency: Developers can share Dockerfiles to create identical environments for different developers.
Scalability: Docker containers can be quickly replicated, allowing your application to scale horizontally without a lot of overhead.
Isolation: Docker containers provide isolated environments for each part of your application, ensuring that dependencies don’t conflict.
2. Setting Up Docker for Full Stack Applications
Installing Docker and Docker Compose
Docker can be installed on any system (Windows, macOS, Linux). Provide steps for installing Docker and Docker Compose (which simplifies multi-container management).
Commands:
docker --version to check the installed Docker version.
docker-compose --version to check the Docker Compose version.
Setting Up Project Structure
Organize your project into different directories (e.g., /frontend, /backend, /db).
Each service will have its own Dockerfile and configuration file for Docker Compose.
3. Creating Dockerfiles for Frontend and Backend
Dockerfile for the Frontend:
For a React/Angular app:
Dockerfile
FROM node:14 WORKDIR /app COPY package*.json ./ RUN npm install COPY . . EXPOSE 3000 CMD ["npm", "start"]
This Dockerfile installs Node.js dependencies, copies the application, exposes the appropriate port, and starts the server.
Dockerfile for the Backend:
For a Python Flask app
Dockerfile
FROM python:3.9 WORKDIR /app COPY requirements.txt . RUN pip install -r requirements.txt COPY . . EXPOSE 5000 CMD ["python", "app.py"]
For a Java Spring Boot app:
Dockerfile
FROM openjdk:11 WORKDIR /app COPY target/my-app.jar my-app.jar EXPOSE 8080 CMD ["java", "-jar", "my-app.jar"]
This Dockerfile installs the necessary dependencies, copies the code, exposes the necessary port, and runs the app.
4. Docker Compose for Multi-Container Applications
What is Docker Compose? Docker Compose is a tool for defining and running multi-container Docker applications. With a docker-compose.yml file, you can configure services, networks, and volumes.
docker-compose.yml Example:
yaml
version: "3" services: frontend: build: context: ./frontend ports: - "3000:3000" backend: build: context: ./backend ports: - "5000:5000" depends_on: - db db: image: postgres environment: POSTGRES_USER: user POSTGRES_PASSWORD: password POSTGRES_DB: mydb
This YAML file defines three services: frontend, backend, and a PostgreSQL database. It also sets up networking and environment variables.
5. Building and Running Docker Containers
Building Docker Images:
Use docker build -t <image_name> <path> to build images.
For example:
bash
docker build -t frontend ./frontend docker build -t backend ./backend
Running Containers:
You can run individual containers using docker run or use Docker Compose to start all services:
bash
docker-compose up
Use docker ps to list running containers, and docker logs <container_id> to check logs.
Stopping and Removing Containers:
Use docker stop <container_id> and docker rm <container_id> to stop and remove containers.
With Docker Compose: docker-compose down to stop and remove all services.
6. Dockerizing Databases
Running Databases in Docker:
You can easily run databases like PostgreSQL, MySQL, or MongoDB as Docker containers.
Example for PostgreSQL in docker-compose.yml:
yaml
db: image: postgres environment: POSTGRES_USER: user POSTGRES_PASSWORD: password POSTGRES_DB: mydb
Persistent Storage with Docker Volumes:
Use Docker volumes to persist database data even when containers are stopped or removed:
yaml
volumes: - db_data:/var/lib/postgresql/data
Define the volume at the bottom of the file:
yaml
volumes: db_data:
Connecting Backend to Databases:
Your backend services can access databases via Docker networking. In the backend service, refer to the database by its service name (e.g., db).
7. Continuous Integration and Deployment (CI/CD) with Docker
Setting Up a CI/CD Pipeline:
Use Docker in CI/CD pipelines to ensure consistency across environments.
Example: GitHub Actions or Jenkins pipeline using Docker to build and push images.
Example .github/workflows/docker.yml:
yaml
name: CI/CD Pipeline on: [push] jobs: build: runs-on: ubuntu-latest steps: - name: Checkout Code uses: actions/checkout@v2 - name: Build Docker Image run: docker build -t myapp . - name: Push Docker Image run: docker push myapp
Automating Deployment:
Once images are built and pushed to a Docker registry (e.g., Docker Hub, Amazon ECR), they can be pulled into your production or staging environment.
8. Scaling Applications with Docker
Docker Swarm for Orchestration:
Docker Swarm is a native clustering and orchestration tool for Docker. You can scale your services by specifying the number of replicas.
Example:
bash
docker service scale myapp=5
Kubernetes for Advanced Orchestration:
Kubernetes (K8s) is more complex but offers greater scalability and fault tolerance. It can manage Docker containers at scale.
Load Balancing and Service Discovery:
Use Docker Swarm or Kubernetes to automatically load balance traffic to different container replicas.
9. Best Practices
Optimizing Docker Images:
Use smaller base images (e.g., alpine images) to reduce image size.
Use multi-stage builds to avoid unnecessary dependencies in the final image.
Environment Variables and Secrets Management:
Store sensitive data like API keys or database credentials in Docker secrets or environment variables rather than hardcoding them.
Logging and Monitoring:
Use tools like Docker’s built-in logging drivers, or integrate with ELK stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana) for advanced logging.
For monitoring, tools like Prometheus and Grafana can be used to track Docker container metrics.
10. Conclusion
Why Use Docker in Full Stack Development? Docker simplifies the management of complex full-stack applications by ensuring consistent environments across all stages of development. It also offers significant performance benefits and scalability options.
Recommendations:
Encourage users to integrate Docker with CI/CD pipelines for automated builds and deployment.
Mention the use of Docker for microservices architecture, enabling easy scaling and management of individual services.

Saab delivers the first serial-produced Gripen E fighter to Sweden's Defense Material Administration
Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 10/20/2023 - 09:08am Military, Saab
On Friday, October 6, an important milestone was surpassed when Saab delivered the first serially produced Gripen E aircraft to the FMV (Sweden Defense Material Administration), which will now operate the aircraft before delivering it to the Swedish Armed Forces.
In the past, two JAS39 Gripen E were delivered to FMV for use in flight test operations, but under the Saab operating license.
"I am very happy and pleased that we have reached this important milestone towards the implementation of the hunt. It is an important milestone and more deliveries will take place soon," says Lars Tossman, head of Saab's aeronautical business area.
Tumblr media
Lars Helmrich accompanied the development of the Gripen system for almost 30 years, first as a fighter pilot and then as commander of the Skaraborg F7 air flotilla. As the current head of FMV's aviation and space equipment business area, he is impressed with the aircraft that are now being delivered.
"The delivery means that FMV has now received all parts of the weapon system to operate the Gripen E independently," said Mattias Fridh, Head of Delivery Management for the Gripen Program. "Its technicians have received training on the Gripen E and have initial capabilities for flight line operations and maintenance. The support and training systems have already been delivered, and parts of the support systems delivered in 2022 were updated in August to match the new configuration."
So far, three aircraft have been delivered to the Swedish state, used in testing operations. From 2025, the plan is for FMV to deliver the JAS 39E to the Swedish Air Force. However, Air Force personnel are already, and have been since 2012, involved in development activities with both pilots and other personnel. It is an important part of the Swedish model to ensure that what the user receives is really necessary.
Tumblr media
“This is a very important step for deployment in the Swedish Armed Forces in 2025 at F7 Satenäs, and FMV has now applied for its own flight test authorization from the Swedish Military Aviation Safety Inspection. This is the culmination of intensive work in both development and production, where many employees have done a fantastic job."
In addition to Sweden and Brazil, which have already placed orders for JAS 39 E/F, several countries show interest in the system. Today, Gripen is operated by Hungary, the Czech Republic and Thailand through agreements with the Swedish government and FMV. Brazil and South Africa have business directly with Saab.

Sentinel-1C captures first radar images of Earth
Less than a week after its launch, the Copernicus Sentinel-1C satellite has delivered its first radar images of Earth—offering a glimpse into its capabilities for environmental monitoring. These initial images feature regions of interest, including Svalbard in Norway, the Netherlands, and Brussels, Belgium.
Launched on 5 December from Europe's Spaceport in French Guiana aboard a Vega-C rocket, Sentinel-1C is equipped with a state-of-the-art C-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) instrument. This cutting-edge technology allows the satellite to deliver high-resolution imagery day and night, in all weather conditions, supporting critical applications such as environmental management, disaster response and climate change research.
Now, the new satellite has delivered its initial set of radar images over Europe, flawlessly processed by the Sentinel-1 Ground Segment. These images showcase an exceptional level of data quality for initial imagery, highlighting the outstanding efforts of the entire Sentinel-1 team over the past years.
The first image (see figure above), captured just 56 hours and 23 minutes after liftoff, features Svalbard, a remote Norwegian archipelago in the Arctic Ocean.
This image demonstrates Sentinel-1C's ability to monitor ice coverage and environmental changes in harsh and isolated regions. These capabilities are essential for understanding the effects of climate change on polar ecosystems and for enabling safer navigation in Arctic waters.
Moving to mainland Europe, the second image (below) showcases part of the Netherlands, including Amsterdam and the region of Flevoland, renowned for its extensive farmland and advanced water management systems.
Tumblr media
Sentinel-1C's advanced radar captures intricate details of this region, providing invaluable data for monitoring soil moisture and assessing crop health. These insights are essential for enhancing agricultural productivity and ensuring sustainable resource management in one of Europe's key farming areas.
This Sentinel-1C image of the Netherlands echoes the very first SAR image acquired by the legacy European Remote-Sensing (ERS) mission in 1991, which captured the Flevoland polder and the Ijsselmeer—marking the first European radar image ever taken from space.
Finally, the third image (below) highlights Brussels, Belgium, where Sentinel-1C's radar technology vividly depicts the dense urban landscape in bright white and yellow tones, contrasting with the surrounding vegetation. Waterways and low-reflective areas, such as airport runways, appear in darker hues.
