In astrodynamics a Δv or delta-v (literally “change in velocity”) is a measure of the amount of “effort” that is needed to change from one trajectory to another by making an orbital maneuver. It is a scalar that has the units of speed.
The rocket equation shows that the required amount of propellant dramatically increases, with increasing delta-v.
Therefore in modern spacecraft propulsion systems considerable study is put into reducing the total delta-v needed for a given spaceflight, as well as designing spacecraft that are capable of producing a large delta-v.

Hearing-impaired and mute, late artist Andrew Clemens created an amazing series of sand bottles that date back more than a hundred years ago.

With the global population expected to expand to over 8 billion people in the next 15 years, human hair is in many ways a perfect sustainable resource. It grows up to 16 times faster than many tropical hardwoods, and it’s incredibly strong as well.
Despite these advantages, there are currently very few ways in which hair is being put to good use in the west outside of putting it in wigs and, bizarrely, pizza.
A collection of beautifully polished vessels and small objects such as combs and boxes, Hair Highway is Studio Swine’s proof that human hair can be put to incredible use.
Mixed with resins and dye, each of the objects in the series looks as if it is carved from tropical wood, horn, and tortoise shell yet were produced at a fraction of the cost.
