Men Only is a British soft-core pornographic magazine published by Paul Raymond Publications since 1971. However, the title goes back to 1935 when it was founded by C. Arthur Pearson Ltd as a pocket magazine. It set out its editorial stall in the first issue: 'We don't want women readers.

To practice the SpaceX emergency crew capsule escape

America to be able to take a further step on Sunday towards send their own astronauts into orbit again.

the Californian company Spacex to practice what to do in The Event that one of its missiles to carry a human crew fails shortly after lift-off.

If The Test is successfully completed, it should start the way for regular astronaut later this year.

the US has not yet started from its own soil since the retirement of the Space Shuttle nine years ago.

It was riding the Russian Soyuz system.

The U.S. Space Agency (Nasa) has contracted with both Spacex and aerospace giant Boeing to come up with " home-grown alternatives.

Spacex with its Falcon Rocket and the Dragon capsule is now in The Final stages of development.

on Sunday, in-Flight abort maneuver, The Last major obstacle The Company faces prior to the receipt of the complete certification, the it takes is really operational as an astronaut taxi services.

(The Test was to take place due to the on Saturday, but delayed until Sunday because of the weather concerns. )

The Dragon capsule is equipped with four parachutes slow its return to earth

The Test , carried out by Florida's Kennedy Space Center, is a Falcon 9 Rocket climbing over The Atlantic ocean, and accelerate to supersonic speed.

Then, at a little over 80 seconds into The Flight , when The Vehicle is switched off on the way to almost double the speed, the sound, the engines.

the Software solves the Dragon capsule, riding on The Falcon fire its powerful super Draco engines on The Ship to slide to a safe distance.

the engineers expect the dragon to reach further to the above, a height of about 40 km (25 miles) before dropping its lower service-module structure, or in the trunk, and the release of the descent parachutes.

This will bring the capsule to a gentle splashdown about 30km outside of Cape Canaveral , where a rescue team waiting to get it back.

Lift-off to touch, the water should take about 10 Minutes .

As for The Rocket - it will be destroyed in the course of The Demonstration .

"We expect to break that the hawks start," said Benji Reed, Director of the mission crew management at Spacex .

"the Two phases (The Falcon ) are loaded with fuel, because we want to have The Right mass and do all the tests The Right way. So with the two stages loaded with fuel, we expect that there is probably a certain amount of ignition. Flame. We can see something. "

Spacex has a program of its Rocket and capsule solution under the Nasa Commercial Crew.

Kathy Lueders, who heads this project, said that the in-Flight abort to be an exciting spectacle - promised the kind of "exciting" to see that your Agency prefer to never.

"But this is a big test for us," she told reporters. "This is a test of a system, the payments are allegedly for the protection of our crews. a very important step for us to make progress in The Crew Transport to The International space station (ISS). "

" No people on Board for this test to capture just a couple of anthropomorphic test devices ("dummies") on-board conditions. But if The Demonstration is to move without a hitch, Spacex should be able to with Crew operations pretty quickly.

The Company has already proved, and is even carried out, in which a dummy took The Place of Real People .

Last year, Nasa has Behnken selected space-shuttle-veteran Doug Hurley and Bob as The Astronauts want to go on The First Spacex manned space Flight .

The importance of an effective abort capability was underlined, that in the year 2018, the experience of the Russian cosmonauts Alexei Ovchinin and Nasa Flight engineer Nick Haag.

they were in the middle of a routine trip to the ISS when their Soyuz Rocket damaged himself two minutes in The Ascent . The Men , the only escape death, because your capsule is also a need had to to pull system, The Crew compartment security.

It had died and noted that The Challenger Space Shuttle in 1986, had no such escape skills, and all seven members of The Crew to break as the orbiter began, up to 72 seconds into its mission.

Both Spacex and Boeing have been scheduled, with Crew-service in 2017, but was struggling with - and overcoming Some tricky technical challenges.

Spacex saw in April of last year. And it had to work hard, recently, to kite-parachute-run system, to the specifications.

Similarly, for Boeing. Just last month on the ISS.

The Ship experienced an anomaly immediately after the Start, it led to a waste of fuel reserves, turn, so that there is achieved just before the propellant charge, the orbiting Outpost.

All That said, it seems likely both Spacex and Boeing get the on debut manned flights in the coming months.
