  International Space Station The:...

  Much has been written about the Space Race, which is still taught across America today, but the story of human space exploration is mostly one of cooperation. Even in the summer of 1969, the Soviets had given the United States the flight plan for its Luna 15 mission, allowing Apollo 11 to avoid it.  
  	That was the first of many examples of cooperation in space between the United States and the Soviet Union during the Cold War, and ultimately, their research and cooperation helped lead to the construction of the International Space Station (ISS), a large space station assembled in Earth’s orbit that represents the most ambitious international space project in history.  
  	Thanks to the various components that have been put together, the International Space Station is bigger and brighter than all other artificial satellites. With relatively low power magnification, people can see the solar panels radiating outward from the numerous international modules which make up the ISS. The reality of that platform, at the edge of the ocean of space, is pretty astounding when looked at from the perspective of history. Only 120 years ago, mankind did not know if it was possible to fly in a heavier-than-air vehicle. Constructed with over 30 different modules and pieces that were carried into orbit by dozens of different launches, the ISS is already over 150 feet long, 300 feet wide and 60 feet tall. Astronauts from 10 nations have spent time on the space station as long-term crew. 
  	In addition, the International Space Station can truly be held as a sign that the Space Age is maturing quite nicely, at least on a social and personal level. A total of 34 women have visited the space station, eight tourists have paid for the privilege of taking the trip to the station, and there have been many who have made multiple trips to the ISS.

  Psychology is a subject with wide and partially unexplored horizons. The psychological well-being of an individual is in fact dependent on every single influence. Starting in the womb, continuing with education, hobbies, views, knowledge, feelings and learned values. These influences provide namely for positive development or also for negative development. These opposites of the positive and negative development describe thereby roughly seen finally the psychology. This tries to explain behaviors of an individual and offers the possibility to overcome fears, for example.To ensure a good introduction to the subject, it is important to mention that one groups the generic term of psychology into many detailed aspects and subtopics. In this context, new findings regularly contribute to the development and progress of psychology. For example, new methods and new therapies are developed through advanced brain research and behavioral observations by compiling statistics.

  Tuscany's Noble Treasures -...

  In the Middle Ages, the region of Tuscany and its surrounding area was, for around 150 years, home to a surprising number of holy women, from the birth of Margaret of Cortona in 1247 to the death of Catherine of Siena in 1380, with the fourteenth century seeing the greatest of them. While Catherine of Siena has received worldwide recognition, women like Agnes of Montepulciano and Angela of Foligno have received little attention outside their homeland. Yet they and others are important figures in what is a largely unrecognised movement of Tuscan mystics. Their individual stories are enhanced by the efforts of artists and writers which all help to create a recognisable type of religious woman.
  
  
   
  This study looks first at the underlying influences on Tuscan mysticism, from the legend of St Katherine of Alexandria through to the celebration of women in the secular literature of the High Middle Ages and the effect of the emerging monastic orders. It examines the life and work of Tuscan holy women and focuses in particular on how they were perceived in their largely patriarchal contexts and by the artists, biographers and "men of God" who brought their own cultural assumptions to bear on the telling of their story. In consequence, the power that stemmed from their godly lives was to varying degrees undermined by some of the people closest to them and eroded by the church itself.
  
   
  This story of women alternately constrained and encouraged by their social contexts is one of individual struggles and collective achievement. Although the movement in Italy began to fade away after the death of Catherine of Siena, the mystic tradition would live on in other parts of Europe, where the experiences of holy women such as Margery Kempe or, later, Teresa of Ávila will have much in common with their Tuscan predecessors.

  This book contains the following titles: 
  - The 2023 Inflation Surge: The year 2023 witnessed an unprecedented surge in inflation across multiple global economies, challenging both policymakers and citizens. This inflationary spike had far-reaching implications, reshaping how individuals and businesses approach spending, saving, and investment. For many, the cost of living soared, driven by rising prices on essential goods and services. The effects were not limited to any one region; they were felt in both developed and emerging economies, exacerbating the economic struggles that had already been heightened by the COVID-19 pandemic and supply chain disruptions. 
    
  - The Collapse of the Soviet Union: The Soviet Union, once the most powerful socialist state on the planet, dominated global politics and economics for much of the 20th century. From its establishment in 1922 until its disintegration in 1991, the USSR stood as a superpower, rivaling the United States in military strength, technological innovation, and ideological influence. The Soviet Union was not just a political entity; it was the manifestation of a grand vision of socialist governance that sought to reshape the world. Its rise to power was marked by revolution, war, and the forging of a unique socio-economic structure that stood in stark contrast to the capitalist world.
