Eight-thousander
The eight-thousanders are the 14 mountains recognized by the International Mountaineering and Climbing Federation (UIAA) as being more than in height above sea level, and sufficiently independent of neighbouring peaks. There is no precise definition of the criteria used to assess independence, and at times, the UIAA has considered whether the list should be expanded to 20 mountain peaks by including the major satellite peaks of eight-thousanders. All of the eight-thousanders are located in the Himalayas, Himalayan and Karakoram mountain ranges in Asia, and their summits lie in the altitude range known as the death zone. From 1950 to 1964, all 14 eight-thousanders were first summited by Expedition climbing, expedition climbers in the summer (the first to be summited was Annapurna I in 1950, and the last was Shishapangma in 1964), and from 1980 to 2021, all 14 were summited in the winter (the first to be summited in winter being Mount Everest in 1980, and the last being K2 in 2021 ...

Beretta 8000
The Beretta 8000 (Cougar) is a family of rotating barrel semi-automatic pistols that were designed and manufactured by Beretta of Italy. History They first appeared on the market in 1994 as a more compact alternative to the full-sized Beretta 92 service pistol in order to offer a compromise between concealability, ease of carry, accuracy and firepower. The 8000 series was originally developed around the .40 S&W cartridge, which was a new cartridge at the time. This allowed it to easily be converted to other calibers, such as .357 SIG and the less powerful 9x19mm. The Cougar series was later also manufactured in .45 ACP. These pistols are suitable for use by both police and for civilian self-defense. Description Cougar 8000 series pistols are recoil operation, recoil-operated, Breechblock, locked breech semi-automatic pistols. These pistols use a relatively rare rotating barrel locking system, in which the barrel rotates on recoil to unlock itself from the slide. The rotating mot ...

Enfield 8000
The Enfield 8000 is a two-seater battery-electric city car, introduced in 1973 and developed in the United Kingdom by Isle of Wight company Enfield Automotive, owned by Greek millionaire Giannis Goulandris. The car was designed by a group of Greek and British engineers headed by Constantine Adraktas (Chairman and Managing Technical Director of Enfield) with John Ackroyd as project designer, who later went on to the Thrust 2 project. The prototypes and initial production were built at the Somerton Works in Northwood, near Cowes. Immediately after its introduction, production was moved to the Greek island of Syros. 120 cars were built in total, of which 65 were used by the Electricity Council and electricity boards in the south of England. Powered by an electric motor and lead-acid batteries, the car has a top speed of around and a range of around . In ''Autocar'''s test in 1975 they found it had a usable range of . It could accelerate from 0 to in 1.6 seconds, in 4.7 se ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
IBM 8000
The IBM 8000 series was a proposed transistor-based successor to the IBM 7000 series. Important engineers on the project included Fred Brooks and Gerry Blaauw. The project plan for the 8000 series was presented by Fred Brooks in January 1961. Despite some technical successes, the project became a political football, amid IBM's search for a unified product line. The project was canceled in 1961 by Bob Evans, supplanted by the successful System/360 series. The 8000 project may have seen the first use of the term "architecture" in relation to computers. Problems Pugh cites a number of reasons for the cancellation of the 8000 line. * Because more integrated technology was not yet available the system was to have been built using ''discrete transistor'' (SMS) components. * The proposed systems would have been incompatible with IBM's existing successful 1400 series systems. * The proposed instruction set was too complex. * The systems offered inadequate floating point performance, ...

8000 (number)
8000 (eight thousand) is the natural number following 7999 and preceding 8001. 8000 is the cube of 20, as well as the sum of four consecutive integers cubed, 113 + 123 + 133 + 143. The fourteen tallest mountains on Earth, which exceed 8000 meters in height, are sometimes referred to as eight-thousanders. Selected numbers in the range 8001–8999 8001 to 8099 * 8001 – triangular number * 8002 – Mertens function zero * 8011 – Mertens function zero, super-prime * 8012 – Mertens function zero * 8017 – Mertens function zero * 8021 – Mertens function zero * 8039 – safe prime * 8059 – super-prime * 8069 – Sophie Germain prime * 8093 – Sophie Germain prime 8100 to 8199 * 8100 = 902 * 8101 – super-prime * 8111 – Sophie Germain prime * 8117 – super-prime, balanced prime * 8119 – octahedral number; 8119/5741 ≈ √2 * 8125 – pentagonal pyramidal number * 8128 – perfect number, harmonic divisor number, 127th triangular number, 64th hexagonal number, e ...

8000 Plus
''8000 Plus'' (renamed ''PCW Plus'' early in 1992) was a monthly British magazine dedicated to the Amstrad PCW range of microcomputers. It was one of the earliest magazines from Future plc, and ran for just over ten years, the first issue being dated October 1986 and the last (as ''PCW Plus'') being issue 124, dated Christmas 1996. Science fiction writer David Langford David Rowland Langford (born 10 April 1953) is a British author, editor, and Literary criticism, critic, largely active within the science fiction field.

8th Millennium BC
The 8th millennium BC spanned the years 8000 BC to 7001 BC (c. 10 ka to c. 9 ka). In chronological terms, it is the second full millennium of the current Holocene epoch and is entirely within the Pre-Pottery Neolithic B (PPNB) phase of the Early Neolithic. It is impossible to precisely date events that happened around the time of this millennium and all dates mentioned here are estimates mostly based on geological and anthropological analysis, or by radiometric dating. Global environment In the geologic time scale, the first stratigraphic stage of the Holocene epoch is the " Greenlandian" from about 9700 BC to the fixed date 6236 BC and so including the whole of the 8th millennium. The Greenlandian followed the Younger Dryas and essentially featured a climate shift from near-glacial to interglacial, causing glaciers to retreat and sea levels to rise. ''This proposal on behalf of the SQS has been approved by the International Commission on Stratigraphy (ICS) and for ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
9th Millennium BC
The 9th millennium BC spanned the years 9000 BC to 8001 BC (11 to 10 thousand years ago). In chronological terms, it is the first full millennium of the current Holocene epoch that is generally reckoned to have begun by 9700 BC (11.7 thousand years ago). It is impossible to precisely date events that happened around the time of this millennium and all dates mentioned here are estimates mostly based on geological and anthropological analysis, or by radiometric dating. In the Near East, especially in the Fertile Crescent, the transitory Epipalaeolithic age was gradually superseded by the Neolithic with evidence of agriculture across the Levant to the Zagros Mountains in modern-day Iran. The key characteristic of the Neolithic is agricultural settlement, albeit with wooden and stone tools and weapons still in use. It is believed that agriculture had begun in China by the end of the millennium. Elsewhere, especially in Europe, the Palaeolithic continued. Global environment In t ...

8th Millennium
While the future cannot be predicted with certainty, present understanding in various scientific fields allows for the prediction of some far-future events, if only in the broadest outline. These fields include astrophysics, which studies how planets and stars form, interact and die; particle physics, which has revealed how matter behaves at the smallest scales; evolutionary biology, which studies how life evolves over time; plate tectonics, which shows how continents shift over millennia; and sociology, which examines how human societies and cultures evolve. These timelines begin at the start of the 4th millennium in 3001 CE, and continue until the furthest and most remote reaches of future time. They include alternative future events that address unresolved scientific questions, such as whether Human extinction, humans will become extinct, whether the Earth survives when the Sun expands to become a red giant and whether proton decay will be the eventual end of all matter in ...
