The Zarya control module, also known by the technical term Functional Cargo Block and the Russian acronym FGB, was the first component launched for the International Space Station and provides the station's initial propulsion and power.... The U. S.-funded and Russian-built Zarya, which means Sunrise when translated to English, is a U. S. component of the station although it was built and launched by Russia.... The Zarya module is 41. 2 feet long and 13. 5 feet wide at its widest point. It has an operational lifetime of at least 15 years. Its solar arrays and six nickel-cadmium batteries can provide an average of 3 kilowatts of electrical power. Using the Russian Kurs system, the Zarya will perform an automated and remotely piloted rendezvous and docking with the Service Module in orbit. Its docking power will accommodate Russian Soyuz piloted spacecraft and unpiloted Progress resupply spacecraft. Each of the two solar arrays is 35 feet long and 11 feet wide. The module's 16 fuel tanks combined can hold more than 6 tons of propellant. The attitude control system for the module includes 24 large steering jets and 12 small steering jets. Two large engines are available for reboosting the spacecraft and making major orbital changes. 6, record 1, English, - Zarya%20control%20module

The Zarya module now provides orientation control, communications and electrical power attached to the passive Unity module while the station awaits launch of the third component, a Russian-provided crew living quarters and early station core known as the Service Module ... The Service Module will enhance or replace many functions of the Zarya. Later in the station’s assembly sequence, the Zarya module will be used primarily for its storage capacity and external fuel tanks. 6, record 1, English, - Zarya%20control%20module

Although common sense(and two trade names) dictate the use of the term "crow repellent", this term is not widespread in the literature. Instead, discussions on crow control mention the more general "bird repellent", "chemical bird repellent", "avian repellent", or "avicide"(the latter term can be construed to repel as well as kill birds.) 2, record 2, English, - crow%20repellent

Using the term "rod marionette" helps differentiate this type of puppet from the all-string marionette, which is often referred to simply as a marionette. The rod marionette employs a metal rod attached to the centre of the puppet's head as its main control device. The arms and legs can be controlled by smaller rods, strings or a combination of the two. The rod marionette is considered to be the ancestor of the string marionette. 1, record 3, English, - rod%20marionette
