ट्रेन से कनाडा के रॉकीज का रोमांच

January 20, 20212294 Views

रॉकी माउंटेनियर का सफर है दुनिया की सबसे आलीशान यात्राओं में से एक इस ट्रेन में न रॉयल या प्रेसिडेंशियल या महारानी स्वीट है, न आरामदेह बिस्तर है, न कमरे में प्लाज्मा टीवी, म्यूजिक सिस्टम या शानदार शीशे का बना बाथरूम क्यूबिकल- कुछ भी नहीं। दुनिया की राजसी ट्रेन यात्राओं में अभी तक हम जिन तमाम खूबियों का जिक्र किया करते थे, वे सारी इस ट्रेन में नदारद हैं। लेकिन ठाठ इसके भी कम नहीं। यह भी दुनिया की सबसे शानदार ट्रेन यात्राओं में गिनी जाती है, उन यात्राओं में जिनके बिना दुनिया देखने के अनुभव को अधूरा कहा जा सकता है। कनाडा की रॉकी माउंटेनियर की शोहरत में यकीनन उसके भीतर की सेवाओं का योगदान खासा है तो उन कुदरती नजारे का हिस्सा भी कम नहीं जिसकी सैर वो कराती है। दरअसल यह केवल दिन की ट्रेन है। सफर इसमें दो दिन या उससे ज्यादा के भी होते हैं लेकिन हर सफर में यह ट्रेन रात में किसी शहर में प...

With more than 1,000 breweries statewide, it’s safe to say that the craft beer movement in California is officially booming. From the state’s northernmost stands of coast redwoods, south to the sun-scorched Mojave Desert, the craft beer movement has reached every corner of the Golden State. The phenomenon didn’t happen overnight. Anchor Brewing (San Francisco) and Sierra Nevada (Chico) kicked things into gear in the 70s and 80s, and now you’ll find vibrant beer scenes in San Diego, Orange County, Sonoma County, Sacramento, and elsewhere. The sunny south becomes a magnet for craft beers The craft brewery explosion came pretty early to San Diego, and the San Diego Brewers Guild now has more than 130 breweries. The city was named the “Top Beer Town” in America by Men’s Journal, and...

Musk’s SpaceX to stage key high-altitude Starship test

December 9, 2020553 Views

Elon Musk’s SpaceX was set to launch a prototype of its Mars rocket Starship in its highest-altitude “hop” test from the space company’s Texas facilities on Tuesday, a key trial for a rocket system that Musk hopes will land humans on the moon and eventually Mars. Musk sought to tamp down expectations for Starship’s first suborbital flight using three of its new Raptor rocket engines, predicting a 30% chance of success in reaching an altitude of more than 40,000 feet. That would be vastly higher than the vehicle’s first two tests at altitudes of 500 feet. The sun sets as SpaceX prepares their super heavy-lift Starship SN8 rocket for a test launch this week at the company's facilities in Boca Chica, Texas, U.S. December 1, 2020.

For almost two decades the first week of December in Miami has been synonymous with artists, art fairs, champagne-soaked parties, pop up installations, an explosion of new graffiti, and traffic gridlock. But the Florida city looks far different this year. After the coronavirus pandemic forced Art Basel Miami Beach to announce in September that it was canceling this year’s fair, the galaxy of satellite fairs around the city followed suit. Art Basel is typically one of the busiest times for Miami, and the jolt could not have come at a worse time for this tourism-and-hospitality driven city hit hard by COVID-19.

ये बग्गी हमारी बग्गी जैसी नहीं है। टुंड्रा बग्गी पहियों पर ऐसी जगहों की सैर कराती है जहां जाने का कोई सड़क मार्ग नहीं। टुंड्रा बग्गी दुनिया की उन अजग-गजब चीजों में से है जो सैलानियों को लुभाती है। हम बात कर रहे हैं कनाडा के मनितोबा में हडसन खाड़ी के मुहाने पर स्थित चर्चिल की। इसे दुनिया की पोलर बीयर (ध्रुवीय भालू) राजधानी कहा जाता है। 2006 में चर्चिल शहर की आबादी महज 923 थी। लेकिन इस शहर में ट्रेन जाती है, यहां बंदरगाह है और रोजाना उड़ानें। नहीं है तो बस बाकी कनाडा के लिए कोई सड़क नहीं है। चर्चिल में तीन इकोसिस्टम आकर मिलते हैं- उत्तर में हडसन खाड़ी, उत्तर-पश्चिम में आर्टिक टुंड्रा और दक्षिण में घने जंगल। यह इलाका मई से अगस्त तक पक्षियों को देखने के लिए, जुलाई से अगस्त की गर्मियों में बेलुगा व्हेल मछलियों को देखने के लिए और अक्टूबर-नवंबर में पोलर बीयर देखने के लिए खासा लोकप्रिय है। टुं...
