on the school river on a sunny day at the end of july in the competition nine teams from bush in unison one from monaco rode the waves and the solar powered boats in a race to the finish as well as demonstrating the capabilities of today's seoul attack events and most renewables comes on education and the business opportunities that come with. monaco's team synergy with the winner of its class in the two thousand and fourteen solo one monte carlo with his sleep because in hydrofoils good luck the favorites win the moscow regatta as well. as the race was organized by graduates from the skolkovo moscow school of management under the supervision of youth guinea cousin of the slick soul of boats which was made in europe for bush's symmetry sailing team was on site after his victory in monaco but the potential of solar vessels has implications everywhere such was the thinking behind the solar one championship which brought together teams from china usa and brazil it's monaco's prestigious yacht club here in moscow the founders of the solar got so
6:30 am
wanted to follow in their wake. we tried different competition formats and in the end came to the conclusion that this is indeed something that engineering students need it's good for us education and research it's very important for them to take part in projects like this because it helps to expand their practical knowledge which. i'm sure this was the last thing on everyone's mind when the green flag flew in a surprising turn of events synergies foyle's weren't quite as graceful around the coolness as they've proven to be along the straights and the boats lost precious seconds on each turn this gave it as with this classic boat design all the opportunity it needed to close the gap at the sailing neck in neck down the strait synergy was left dead in the water. while most people were enjoying the weather swimming all playing. volleyball making

the most of the song in a different way we caught up with the regatta team from the state radio technical university while many of the other competitors boats were built purely for speed this team went for practicality as well this solar boats has remained off a six people making it's ideal for a weekend fishing trips however at the flick of a switch the position of the reef can be adjusted turning the casual cruiser into a streamlined race. in this position the center of gravity is lowered and wind resistance reduced to my single post turning performance and maximizing its celebration and take it from me the power of the sun is definitely enough to set the wind running through your head. the solar sail a five point six meters one two point one meters wide propelled by five kilowatts outboard motor boats up to two lithium pulling a bunch of blocks together weighing one hundred sixty kilograms and they can move

around displacement the solar panels on the roof and from generates up to the plate . pretty transient fractures in about ten hours on a full charge the boat can run for up to eight hours it's allegedly seven kilometers an hour or one point five hours it's my speed of twenty five kilometers . the boat was built in only two months in the business incubator at the technical university. before it got anywhere near the open water the team of six current and former students made sure it was seen with the in the improvised. during this stage of testing the team streamlined the vessels weight distribution powered up the propeller and of course checked but given the short time frame the team used the soviet focus for at the base. of this boat has great performance going characteristics as well as a low planing speed. but this boat was originally developed for low power petrol engines. that seem completely overhauled to the rest of the vessel.

is made from an album in human frame strengthened with extruded phone palestine and covered in fiberglass fifty bus trees are mounted on sliders so the posts can be shifted on the go to suits whether load and race conditions close attention was also paid to that chantix to maximize the juice squeezed out of every drop of sunlight and shoulder but she's a charge even when. we built this boat for a competition and when the time came for us to take parts of the through the boat had been fully charged entirely by the sun bonnet which is to the upper solar panel outside while keeping it connected to the controllers. as we money toward the recharging process we saw that there is no need for any sort of external power source over. the world class solar panels were supplied locally by one of the team sponsors that is than metal ceramics instrumentation plants. the production process starts by cleaning and visually inspecting the external glass

pane the surface of the glass is slightly rough to chop as much light as possible reflected from the solar cells beneath once the inspection is complete the pain's a carefully put one side ready to be used in the final assembly later on. the millimeter thin wafers that make up the photovoltaic cells a soul together into rows before being mounted on the backing sheets. they then pass along to likely it's convey away any flaws or cracks in the semi metal cells would shine right through before being sold it together in series. to prevent any old grind getting into the finished product i think ethylene vinyl acetate film is placed on top. then the whole panel is sealed by what's basically a giant slum an a.t.m. machine. number which in which we were very happy to be part of this project years more than we supplied the solar panels for the boat. so it could compete and there
6:35 am
we go to. the project ahead someone usually. due to both waitressed fictions we had just made a story existing technologies and use a lighter flexible polymer base to produce the solar module more than. the finished panels that roll off the production line and into testing the solar panels the checks by blasting them with an artificial sunlight machine and measuring the amount of electricity that comes out the other end of the firm's products can transform the sun's light into usable electricity with an efficiency of up to seventeen percent despite only launching solar panel production in two thousand and eight the company's wares can be found in forty two countries around the world. has many business promotion centers which are ready to support these projects teams we told to the skolkovo foundation and russian venture company and all these organizations are ready to work with our students who already have viable ideas that can be developed into marketable products. meanwhile back in moscow the solar

regatta turned into a two horse race just some other trail. the nimble try and run through just too fast for the multi-purpose transformer and in a nail biting finish went on to win the race. with more teams expected to participate that promises to be even more drama in next year's event. the future of environmentally friendly private vehicles public transport has been going green for decades and times in metro are about to get a facelift. focal point. held the international industrial exhibition for the fifth time last month the events during around six hundred companies from seventy countries and also host to a number of world premieres. including the world's first sixteen meets a single section below floor produced by chung's mush holding. the city star was assembled into. tested on the streets of moscow and is now ready to roll into mass

a model right is up with the underground wasn't overlooked either with company urban transport solutions unveiling their metro carriage prototype as well it's both the largest passenger capacity easy access for disabled passing just climate control as well as a fight it takes and extinguishing system while the trains modular design makes it easier to repair and service the world's population is expected to meet eighty billion people by two thousand and twenty five and with those extra miles to feed scientists are looking for ways to maximize the yields of staple crops and then you check in tom's might just hold the key. on something a lot. that's homes gardens can trace its roots all the way back to eight hundred eighty when construction work was started in the grounds of the city state university. it's a big general glass roof and walls has over seven thousand types of tree plants in texas from all corners of the globe and cover a bloomin six thousand five hundred square me. the gardens carry out importance

a catalyst it's unlike anything used elsewhere. the average or the traditional elements used across the world are produced in the us germany and china. they just use large amounts of silver in a sort of sponge to produce. the catalyst element that we have developed has a number of significant advantages firstly it contains only five percent silver the rest of it basically consists of silica said that with the silver particles are evenly distributed throughout the material to boost its efficiency more one kilogram of this material can produce more than pure silver alone and. another advantage is its thermal stability because. having cracked the secrets of how to produce. the siberian company sets about manufacturing some of the many products derived from it including glycol or. the fertilizers made by mixing the clear liquid x.l. with white crystals. the mixture is then placed in
6:42 am
a chemical reacts and catalyzed by an acid mixture that the company is keeping a tight lid on. as it turns out like color really is also pretty versatile the compound and its derivatives can be used in paints chipboard resin cool disinfectant flame retardants and so on. demand on the domestic markets alone expected to reach sixty thousand tonnes a year the company definitely has its work cut out. in the next stage the crowd liquid is then filtered and the visit to dry producing the whites quite colorful powder. demand for the whole growing tech might be high but on the plus side one application of the first prize that goes a very long. while the main advantage is that it doesn't easily dissolve in water which means that it stays in the soil for a long time one application may last for several seasons up to two or three so you use it once and forget about fertilizer for the next three years you. go. color

rolls and long lasting effects farmers may soon be able to worry about things other than fertilizing. and maybe even take some time out for a stroll in the tomsk botanical gardens. that's just into the first off so stay tuned for most i cope after the break and. i. this is our. propaganda. that is the state sponsor of russia today program just words like sabean not right. and this. is

6:51 am
the computers in our office can be accessed by pretty much any artsy employee i install the parlous desktop clients and one of them the other day just to test out the program unfortunately our producer you get didn't know this when she sat at that computer and the opportunity to play a practical joke on a was just too good to miss. we had four cameras around the office while you was away but i was in constant contact with our director said again if you told me once a one zero zero once a buck all right surrogates just give me the go ahead and you use nits out of the room for a second so let's try connecting to a computer. sign in. carry even this to computers my home computer is on his you lose computer this is it. now we can see it looks like she's watching in order to sort of technology update so good for her right let's have some fun. by moving a mouse thing to just take starts off with. someone
6:52 am
let's move the mouse i hear. it weird you don't understand maybe you should delete the address that she's typing. on. this little. box wrong the wrong address. that. really has absolutely no idea we can see exactly what she's typing. bit of a typo it's move the mouse the old. punch him why have you got a mind of your own i didn't type that i didn't ask you tell you cannot what's going on. there's a message for me r.c. mostly. i don't know if you need to write this message your post should close or. near to you look what's happening
6:53 am
here it's almost taking control of my mouse so i wish. well. look you know this isn't the first time it's happened. i had a window open and then it just closed by self and then some other stuff pops up that's what the heck's going on well it could be a virus it's been happening all morning. she's going slightly mad just. amazing let's give a couple minutes or so she calms down. also non-work related social network close on where to wait a second or to second phones god sake come on suspect something maybe. ok believe it. i did it is ok alex say in the office this is my computer is acting like it's got a mind of its own seriously it's been moving the cursor by itself and closing

unfortunately being boasted. what is this didn't this computer is being used remotely by parallels who did this. not connecting i think we've been rumbled. we're moving toward a situation where we users don't care whether there are apps or data are stored on a cloud on a desktop or never will device they just want to have a convenient way of working with them. and that's exactly what we're trying to achieve with their parallels access mobile app. if you want of course we're going to painter a flower that's even fun golf would be proud of by way of apology remote access ops make us even more connected to the rest of the world which while making our lives easier also presents its own sense of privacy challenges so it's probably best not to say install it on
