Sonic The Hedgehog (film)
''Sonic the Hedgehog'' is a 2020 action adventure film, action-adventure comedy film based on the Sonic the Hedgehog, ''Sonic'' video game series. The first in the Sonic the Hedgehog (film series), ''Sonic'' film series, it was directed by Jeff Fowler (in his List of directorial debuts#2020, feature film directorial debut), written by Patrick Casey (writer), Pat Casey and Josh Miller (filmmaker), Josh Miller, and stars James Marsden and Jim Carrey. Ben Schwartz voices Sonic the Hedgehog (character), Sonic, a blue Anthropomorphism, anthropomorphic hedgehog who can run at supersonic speeds and teams up with small town sheriff Tom Wachowski to stop the mad scientist Doctor Eggman, Dr. Robotnik from taking over the world.

Sonic The Hedgehog (TV Series)
''Sonic the Hedgehog'' is an List of animated television series of 1993, animated television series that aired from 1993 to 1994 based on Sega's ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' video game franchise. It was produced by DIC Entertainment, DIC Productions, Sega, Sega of America, and the Italy, Italian studio MediaForEurope, Reteitalia in association with Telecinco, and is the second of DIC's List of Sonic the Hedgehog features#Animated series, ''Sonic'' cartoons, following ''Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog''. To distinguish it from other ''Sonic'' media, fans commonly refer to the series as "Sonic SatAM", in reference to its Saturday-morning cartoon, Saturday morning timeslot. The show features a darker and more dramatic story than the lighter ''Adventures'', depicting Sonic and a band of freedom fighters battling to overthrow Doctor Eggman, Dr. Robotnik, now a despotic dictator who conquered their home planet Mobius years ago, and rules it as a polluted industrial dystopia. The program ai ...

Sonic Screwdriver
The sonic screwdriver is a fictional multifunctional tool in the British science fiction television programme ''Doctor Who'' and its spin-offs, used by the Doctor. Like the TARDIS, it has become one of the icons of the programme, and spin-off media such as '' The Sarah Jane Adventures'' and ''Torchwood'' have replicated its functions in devices such as the sonic lipstick, sonic blaster, sonic probe, sonic modulator and sonic cane. The sonic screwdriver was introduced in 1968 in the story ''Fury from the Deep'', and used twice more ('' The Dominators'' and ''The War Games'') during the Second Doctor's tenure. It became a popular tool for the Third Doctor and Fourth Doctor. It was written out of the series in 1982 due to the limitations it caused when writing for the show. It then featured briefly in the 1996 ''Doctor Who'' television movie, before making a full return in the 2005 continuation of the series. Throughout the programme, there have been many different versions of ...

Sonic The Hedgehog (2006 Video Game)
commonly referred to as ''Sonic '06'', is a 2006 platform game developed by Sonic Team and published by Sega. Intended as a soft reboot to the ''Sonic'' franchise for seventh-generation video game consoles, players control Sonic, Shadow, and the new character Silver, alongside several supporting characters, across three intertwining storylines as they individually piece together the mystery behind an ancient evil pursued by Doctor Eggman in the city Soleanna. Each of the three main playable characters has his own campaign and abilities, and must complete levels, explore hub worlds and fight bosses to advance the story. In multiplayer modes, players can work cooperatively to collect Chaos Emeralds or race to the end of a level. The development began in early 2005, led by ''Sonic'' co-creator Yuji Naka. Sonic Team sought to create an appealing game in the vein of superhero films such as ''Batman Begins'' (2005), hoping it would advance the series with a realistic tone an ...

Hypersonic
In aerodynamics, a hypersonic speed is one that exceeds five times the speed of sound, often stated as starting at speeds of Mach 5 and above. The precise Mach number at which a craft can be said to be flying at hypersonic speed varies, since individual physical changes in the airflow (like molecular dissociation and ionization) occur at different speeds; these effects collectively become important around Mach 5–10. The hypersonic regime can also be alternatively defined as speeds where specific heat capacity changes with the temperature of the flow as kinetic energy of the moving object is converted into heat. Characteristics of flow While the definition of hypersonic flow can be quite vague and is generally debatable (especially because of the absence of discontinuity between supersonic and hypersonic flows), a hypersonic flow may be characterized by certain physical phenomena that can no longer be analytically discounted as in supersonic flow. The peculiarities in hyperso ...

Sonic Hedgehog
Sonic hedgehog protein (SHH) is a major signaling molecule of embryonic development in humans and animals, encoded by the ''SHH'' gene. This signaling molecule is key in regulating embryonic morphogenesis in all animals. SHH controls organogenesis and the organization of the central nervous system, limbs, digits and many other parts of the body. Sonic hedgehog is a morphogen that patterns the developing embryo using a concentration gradient characterized by the French flag model. This model has a non-uniform distribution of SHH molecules which governs different cell fates according to concentration. Mutations in this gene can cause holoprosencephaly, a failure of splitting in the cerebral hemispheres, as demonstrated in an experiment using SHH knock-out mice in which the forebrain midline failed to develop and instead only a single fused telencephalic vesicle resulted. Sonic hedgehog still plays a role in differentiation, proliferation, and maintenance of adult tissues. Abno ...

CHDI-FM
CHDI-FM (102.9 MHz, ''Sonic 102.9'') is a radio station in Edmonton, Alberta. Owned by Rogers Radio, a division of Rogers Sports & Media, it broadcasts a modern rock format. Its studios are co-located with its sister stations on Gateway Boulevard. As of February 28, 2021, CHDI is the 8th-most-listened-to radio station in the Edmonton market according to a PPM data report released by Numeris. History The OK Radio Group Ltd. was granted this license in 2005 as one of three new FM stations in Edmonton. The station spent its first year broadcasting from a run down oil-field trailer on the property of the Airways Country Inn in Nisku, Alberta. The station founders wanted to get the station on the air as quickly as possible so it was decided they would broadcast from the trailer until their Gateway Boulevard studios were complete. Local media latched on to their "pirate" story, giving them a huge shot in the arm in their first year. In November 2006, Rogers Media acquired CHDI, ...

Supersonic
Supersonic speed is the speed of an object that exceeds the speed of sound (Mach 1). For objects traveling in dry air of a temperature of 20 °C (68 °F) at sea level, this speed is approximately . Speeds greater than five times the speed of sound (Mach 5) are often referred to as hypersonic. Flights during which only some parts of the air surrounding an object, such as the ends of rotor blades, reach supersonic speeds are called transonic. This occurs typically somewhere between Mach 0.8 and Mach 1.2. Sounds are traveling vibrations in the form of pressure waves in an elastic medium. Objects move at supersonic speed when the objects move faster than the speed at which sound propagates through the medium. In gases, sound travels longitudinally at different speeds, mostly depending on the molecular mass and temperature of the gas, and pressure has little effect. Since air temperature and composition varies significantly with altitude, the speed of s ...
