The Centre is located in the heart of the Eastern Townships, Quebec. It was founded in 1914 under the name of the "Lennoxville Experimental Station. "The Station became the "Lennoxville Experimental Farm" in the early 1950's, the name was changed to the "Lennoxville Research Station" in 1959, and changed again in 1994 to the present name, the "Dairy and Swine Research and Development Centre. "The "Dairy and Swine Research and Development Centre" in Lennoxville is committed to making the Canadian dairy and swine industry more competitive. The scientific expertise of the Centre is also available to work in collaboration with the sheep industry. Its dynamic and competent teams conduct innovative research with high biological and economic yield potential, in cooperation with their partners from the industry. 3, record 3, English, - Dairy%20and%20Swine%20Research%20and%20Development%20Centre

Le «Centre de recherche et de développement sur le bovin laitier et le porc» de Lennoxville contribue depuis longtemps au développement de l'agriculture canadienne. Le Centre est situé au cœur des Cantons de l'Est du Québec. Il fut créé en 1914 sous le nom de «Station expérimentale de Lennoxville». Au début des années cinquante, la «Station expérimentale de Lennoxville» est devenue la «Ferme expérimentale de Lennoxville», pour ensuite prendre en 1959 le nom de «Station de recherches de Lennoxville» et finalement, en 1994, le nom actuel de «Centre de recherche et de développement sur le bovin laitier et le porc». En collaboration avec les intervenants du milieu, le «Centre de recherche et de développement sur le bovin laitier et le porc» assure l'orientation, l'exécution et la valorisation de travaux de recherche visant à améliorer la compétitivité des industries laitière et porcine ou présentant un intérêt national ou stratégique pour le développement de la société canadienne et de l'industrie dans un contexte de production durable. 3, record 3, French, - Centre%20de%20recherche%20et%20de%20d%C3%A9veloppement%20sur%20le%20bovin%20laitier%20et%20le%20porc

The American Space Agency Nasa... is putting several million dollars into the project under its advanced concepts programme. At the heart of a space elevator would be a cable reaching up as far as 100, 000km from the surface of the Earth. The earthbound end would be tethered to a base station, probably somewhere in the middle of the Pacific ocean. The other end would be attached to an orbiting object in space acting as a counterweight, the momentum of which would keep the cable taut and allow vehicles to climb up and down it. A space elevator would make rockets redundant by granting cheaper access to space. At about a third of the way along the cable-36, 000 km from Earth-objects take a day to complete a full orbit. If the cable's centre of gravity remained at this height, the cable would remain vertical, as satellites placed at this height are geostationary, effectively hovering over the same spot on the ground. To build a space elevator such a geostationary satellite would be placed into orbit carrying the coiled-up cable. One weighted end of the cable would then be dropped back towards Earth, while the other would be unreeled off into space. Mechanical lifters could then climb up the cable from the ground, ferrying up satellites, space probes and eventually tourists. The biggest technical obstacle is finding a material strong but light enough to make the cable; this is where the carbon nanotubes come in. These are microscopically thin tubes of carbon that are as strong as diamonds but flexible enough to turn into fibre. In theory, a nanotube ribbon about one metre wide and as thin as paper could support a space elevator. 2, record 5, English, - space%20elevator

La NIAC (Institut des Concepts Avancées de la NASA) a publié une étude fin 2002 sur tous les aspects d'un système d'ascenseur spatial, de la construction aux opérations. Premièrement, l'ascenseur serait constitué d'un câble d'une longueur de 91 000 km et d'un diamètre variant de 1 micron à 11.5 cm. Ce filin serait mis en orbite à l'aide d'une navette spatiale aidée de quelques propulseurs supplémentaires, qui, une fois en orbite géostationnaire, serviraient de contrepoids. Les forces centripètes repousseraient alors la partie haute du filin vers l'espace tandis que la partie basse serait attirée par la Terre, mettant le tout en tension. Ce premier lien serait capable d'envoyer plus d'une tonne en orbite. Il suffira ensuite d'utiliser ce premier câble pour en mettre en orbite de nouveaux. Ces filins seront constitués de nanotubes de carbone. Le plus gros défi technologique serait de construire 91 000 km de nanotubes car aujourd'hui la technologie ne permet d'en construire que quelques centimètres. Le ratio actuel nanotube/résine epoxy est de 60/40. Il faudra réussir à descendre à 98/2. Les principaux risques liés au transport par ascenseur seront dus aux météorites, aux ouragans ou aux attaques terroristes. Le filin pourra être réparé in-situ. Ce système ne nécessiterait pas de maîtriser la fusion nucléaire. De simples batteries et panneaux solaires suffiront à alimenter l'ascenseur. La plupart des technologies nécessaires existent déjà ou existeront dans le court terme. Les prévisions actuelles prévoient un budget de 7 à 10 milliards sur 15 ans. 2, record 5, French, - ascenseur%20spatial
