rock music is a broad genre of popular music that originated as 'rock and roll' in the united states in the late 1940s and early 1950s, developing into a range of different styles from the mid-1960s, particularly in the united states and united kingdom.it has its roots in 1940s and 1950s rock and roll, a style that drew directly from the blues and rhythm and blues genres of african-american music and from country music.rock also drew strongly from genres such as electric blues and folk, and incorporated influences from jazz, classical, and other musical styles.for instrumentation, rock has centered on the electric guitar, usually as part of a rock group with electric bass guitar, drums, and one or more singers.usually, rock is song-based music with a 44 time signature using a verse–chorus form, but the genre has become extremely diverse.like pop music, lyrics often stress romantic love but also address a wide variety of other themes that are frequently social or political.rock was the most popular genre of music in the united states and much of the western world from the 1950s to the 2010s.rock musicians in the mid-1960s began to advance the album ahead of the single as the dominant form of recorded music expression and consumption, with the beatles at the forefront of this development.their contributions lent the genre a cultural legitimacy in the mainstream and initiated a rock-informed album era in the music industry for the next several decades.by the late 1960s 'classic rock' period, a number of distinct rock music subgenres had emerged, including hybrids like blues rock, folk rock, country rock, southern rock, raga rock, and jazz rock, many of which contributed to the development of psychedelic rock, which was influenced by the countercultural psychedelic and hippie scene.new genres that emerged included progressive rock, which extended the artistic elements, glam rock, which highlighted showmanship and visual style, and the diverse and enduring subgenre of heavy metal, which emphasized volume, power, and speed.in the second half of the 1970s, punk rock reacted by producing stripped-down, energetic social and political critiques.punk was an influence in the 1980s on new wave, post-punk and eventually alternative rock.from the 1990s, alternative rock began to dominate rock music and break into the mainstream in the form of grunge, britpop, and indie rock.further fusion subgenres have since emerged, including pop-punk, electronic rock, rap rock, and rap metal.some movements were conscious attempts to revisit rock's history, including the garage rock/post-punk revival in the 2000s.since the 2010s, rock has lost its position as the pre-eminent popular music genre in world culture, but remains commercially successful.the increased influence of hip-hop and electronic dance music can be seen in rock music, notably in the techno-pop scene of the early 2010s and the pop-punk-hip-hop revival of the 2020s.rock has also embodied and served as the vehicle for cultural and social movements, leading to major subcultures including mods and rockers in the united kingdom, the hippie movement and the wider western counterculture movement that spread out from san francisco in the us in the 1960s, the latter of which continues to this day.similarly, 1970s punk culture spawned the goth, punk, and emo subcultures.inheriting the folk tradition of the protest song, rock music has been associated with political activism as well as changes in social attitudes to race, sex, and drug use, and is often seen as an expression of youth revolt against adult consumerism and conformity.at the same time, it has been commercially highly successful, leading to charges of selling out.

rock music is a broad genre of popular music that originated as 'rock and roll' in the united states in the late 1940s and early 1950s, developing into a range of different styles from the mid-1960s, particularly in the united states and united kingdom.it has its roots in 1940s and 1950s rock and roll, a style that drew directly from the blues and rhythm and blues genres of african-american music and from country music.rock also drew strongly from genres such as electric blues and folk, and incorporated influences from jazz, classical, and other musical styles.for instrumentation, rock has centered on the electric guitar, usually as part of a rock group with electric bass guitar, drums, and one or more singers.usually, rock is song-based music with a 44 time signature using a verse–chorus form, but the genre has become extremely diverse.like pop music, lyrics often stress romantic love but also address a wide variety of other themes that are frequently social or political.rock was the most popular genre of music in the united states and much of the western world from the 1950s to the 2010s.rock musicians in the mid-1960s began to advance the album ahead of the single as the dominant form of recorded music expression and consumption, with the beatles at the forefront of this development.their contributions lent the genre a cultural legitimacy in the mainstream and initiated a rock-informed album era in the music industry for the next several decades.by the late 1960s 'classic rock' period, a number of distinct rock music subgenres had emerged, including hybrids like blues rock, folk rock, country rock, southern rock, raga rock, and jazz rock, many of which contributed to the development of psychedelic rock, which was influenced by the countercultural psychedelic and hippie scene.new genres that emerged included progressive rock, which extended the artistic elements, glam rock, which highlighted showmanship and visual style, and the diverse and enduring subgenre of heavy metal, which emphasized volume, power, and speed.in the second half of the 1970s, punk rock reacted by producing stripped-down, energetic social and political critiques.punk was an influence in the 1980s on new wave, post-punk and eventually alternative rock.from the 1990s, alternative rock began to dominate rock music and break into the mainstream in the form of grunge, britpop, and indie rock.further fusion subgenres have since emerged, including pop-punk, electronic rock, rap rock, and rap metal.some movements were conscious attempts to revisit rock's history, including the garage rock/post-punk revival in the 2000s.since the 2010s, rock has lost its position as the pre-eminent popular music genre in world culture, but remains commercially successful.the increased influence of hip-hop and electronic dance music can be seen in rock music, notably in the techno-pop scene of the early 2010s and the pop-punk-hip-hop revival of the 2020s.rock has also embodied and served as the vehicle for cultural and social movements, leading to major subcultures including mods and rockers in the united kingdom, the hippie movement and the wider western counterculture movement that spread out from san francisco in the us in the 1960s, the latter of which continues to this day.similarly, 1970s punk culture spawned the goth, punk, and emo subcultures.inheriting the folk tradition of the protest song, rock music has been associated with political activism as well as changes in social attitudes to race, sex, and drug use, and is often seen as an expression of youth revolt against adult consumerism and conformity.at the same time, it has been commercially highly successful, leading to charges of selling out.

rock music is a broad genre of popular music that originated as 'rock and roll' in the united states in the late 1940s and early 1950s, developing into a range of different styles from the mid-1960s, particularly in the united states and united kingdom.it has its roots in 1940s and 1950s rock and roll, a style that drew directly from the blues and rhythm and blues genres of african-american music and from country music.rock also drew strongly from genres such as electric blues and folk, and incorporated influences from jazz, classical, and other musical styles.for instrumentation, rock has centered on the electric guitar, usually as part of a rock group with electric bass guitar, drums, and one or more singers.usually, rock is song-based music with a 44 time signature using a verse–chorus form, but the genre has become extremely diverse.like pop music, lyrics often stress romantic love but also address a wide variety of other themes that are frequently social or political.rock was the most popular genre of music in the united states and much of the western world from the 1950s to the 2010s.rock musicians in the mid-1960s began to advance the album ahead of the single as the dominant form of recorded music expression and consumption, with the beatles at the forefront of this development.their contributions lent the genre a cultural legitimacy in the mainstream and initiated a rock-informed album era in the music industry for the next several decades.by the late 1960s 'classic rock' period, a number of distinct rock music subgenres had emerged, including hybrids like blues rock, folk rock, country rock, southern rock, raga rock, and jazz rock, many of which contributed to the development of psychedelic rock, which was influenced by the countercultural psychedelic and hippie scene.new genres that emerged included progressive rock, which extended the artistic elements, glam rock, which highlighted showmanship and visual style, and the diverse and enduring subgenre of heavy metal, which emphasized volume, power, and speed.in the second half of the 1970s, punk rock reacted by producing stripped-down, energetic social and political critiques.punk was an influence in the 1980s on new wave, post-punk and eventually alternative rock.from the 1990s, alternative rock began to dominate rock music and break into the mainstream in the form of grunge, britpop, and indie rock.further fusion subgenres have since emerged, including pop-punk, electronic rock, rap rock, and rap metal.some movements were conscious attempts to revisit rock's history, including the garage rock/post-punk revival in the 2000s.since the 2010s, rock has lost its position as the pre-eminent popular music genre in world culture, but remains commercially successful.the increased influence of hip-hop and electronic dance music can be seen in rock music, notably in the techno-pop scene of the early 2010s and the pop-punk-hip-hop revival of the 2020s.rock has also embodied and served as the vehicle for cultural and social movements, leading to major subcultures including mods and rockers in the united kingdom, the hippie movement and the wider western counterculture movement that spread out from san francisco in the us in the 1960s, the latter of which continues to this day.similarly, 1970s punk culture spawned the goth, punk, and emo subcultures.inheriting the folk tradition of the protest song, rock music has been associated with political activism as well as changes in social attitudes to race, sex, and drug use, and is often seen as an expression of youth revolt against adult consumerism and conformity.at the same time, it has been commercially highly successful, leading to charges of selling out.

ska punk (also spelled ska-punk) is a fusion genre that mixes ska music and punk rock music together.ska-core (sometimes spelled skacore) is a subgenre of ska punk that mixes ska with hardcore punk.early ska punk mixed both 2 tone and ska with hardcore punk.ska punk tends to feature brass instruments, especially horns such as trumpets, trombones and woodwind instruments like saxophones, making the genre distinct from other forms of punk rock.it is closely tied to third wave ska which reached its zenith in the mid-1990s.before ska punk began, many ska bands and punk rock bands performed on the same bills together and performed to the same audiences.some music groups from the late 1970s and early 1980s, such as the clash, the deadbeats, the specials, the beat, and madness fused characteristics of punk rock and ska, but many of these were either punk bands playing an occasional ska-flavored song, or are usually considered 2-tone ska bands who played faster songs with a punk attitude.during the late 1980s and early 1990s, ska-punk enjoyed its greatest success, heralded by bands such as fishbone, the mighty mighty bosstones, sublime, less than jake, and more.ska punk had significant mainstream success in the middle-to-late 1990s, with many bands topping pop and rock music charts.the best-selling ska punk record of the era was no doubt's tragic kingdom, which was certified diamond by the riaa in 1999 and was certified diamond by music canada in 1997.by the early 2000s, many of the bands in ska punk had broken up, and the genre lost mainstream appeal, though it continued to have underground popularity and featured a revival in the late 2010s with bands like the interrupters returning to chart success, when their song 'she's kerosene' reached the top 5 on alternative and rock music charts in canada and the us, as well as in the early 2020's with hyperpop duo 100 gecs album 10,000 gecs incorporating elements of ska punk to critical acclaim.ska-core is a subgenre of ska punk that blends ska with hardcore punk.early ska punk combined both 2 tone and ska with hardcore punk.ska punk often features wind instruments, especially horns such as saxophones, trombones and trumpets, making the genre distinct from other forms of punk rock.it is similar to traditional jamaican ska, but faster and heavier.a ska revival occurred simultaneously around the beginning of british punk rock and the near-simultaneous rebirth of the late 1970s british mod and skinhead movements.during the late 1970s and early 1980s in united kingdom, many punk rock bands mixed punk rock with ska influences.pioneering punk rock band the clash incorporated influences from ska alongside a range of other genres on their seminal 1979 post-punk album london calling.songs like 1978's 'kill the hippies' by the deadbeats prominently featured horns, although there are no ska elements.other british bands that were influenced by both punk rock and ska included the specials, the beat and madness.with both films like the 1981 documentary film dance craze and supportive radio stations like los angeles, california's kroq, ska crossed the atlantic.many early ska punk bands mixed 2 tone with hardcore punk.during the 1980s, ska punk was underground.however, fishbone, one of the earliest ska punk bands, achieved moderate success.other ska punk bands from the 1980s and early 1990s include operation ivy, culture shock, voodoo glow skulls, the porkers, sublime, citizen fish, the mighty mighty bosstones, the suicide machines, mu330 and dance hall crashers.sublime's song 'date rape' became a hit on major california alternative rock radio stations.

american motors corporation (amc; commonly referred to as american motors) was an american automobile manufacturing company formed by the merger of nash-kelvinator corporation and hudson motor car company on may 1, 1954.at the time, it was the largest corporate merger in u.s. history.american motors' most similar competitors were those automakers that held similar annual sales levels such as studebaker, packard, kaiser motors, and willys-overland.their largest competitors were the big three—ford, general motors, and chrysler.american motors' production line included small cars - the rambler american, which began as the nash rambler in 1950, hornet, gremlin, and pacer; intermediate and full-sized cars, including the ambassador, rambler classic, rebel, and matador; muscle cars, including the marlin, amx, and javelin; and early four-wheel drive variants of the eagle and the jeep wagoneer, the first true crossovers in the u.s. market.regarded as 'a small company deft enough to exploit special market segments left untended by the giants', american motors was widely known for the design work of chief stylist dick teague, who 'had to make do with a much tighter budget than his counterparts at detroit's big three', but 'had a knack for making the most of his employer's investment'.after periods of intermittent independent success, renault acquired a major interest in american motors in 1979, and the company was ultimately acquired by chrysler in 1987.the new corporation would be called the american motors corporation.an earlier corporation with the same name, co-founded by louis chevrolet, had existed in plainfield, new jersey from 1916 through 1922 before merging into the bessemer–american motors corporation.the nash-kelvinator/hudson deal was a straight stock transfer (three shares of hudson listed at 11⅛, for two shares of american motors and one share of nash-kelvinator listed at 17⅜, for one share of american motors) and finalized in the spring of 1954, forming the fourth-biggest auto company in the u.s. with assets of us$355 million and more than $100 million in working capital.the new company retained hudson ceo a.e.barit as a consultant and he took a seat on the board of directors.nash's george w. mason became president and ceo.mason, the architect of the merger, believed that the survival of the u.s.'s remaining independent automakers was dependent on their joining in one multiple-brand company capable of challenging the big three as an equal.the 'frantic 1953–54 ford/gm price war' had a devastating impact on the remaining 'independent' automakers.the reasons for the merger between nash and hudson included helping cut costs and strengthen their sales organizations to meet the intense competition expected from autos' big three.one quick result from the merger was the doubling up with nash on purchasing and production, allowing hudson to cut prices an average of $155 on the wasp line, and up to $204 on the more expensive hornet models.after the merger, amc had its first profitable quarter during the second three months of 1955, earning $1,592,307, compared to a loss of $3,848,667 during the same period in the previous year.mason also entered into informal discussions with james j. nance of packard to outline his strategic vision.interim plans were made for american motors to buy packard ultramatic automatic transmissions and packard v8 engines for certain american motors products.in july 1954, packard acquired studebaker.the new studebaker-packard corporation (s-p) made the new 320 cu in (5.2 l) packard v8 engine and packard's ultramatic automatic transmission available to american motors for its 1955 nash ambassador and hudson hornet models.when mason died in 1954, george w. romney succeeded him.ironically, romney had once been offered nance's job.in 1948, romney received offers from packard for the post of chief operating officer and from nash for the number two position in the company.

american motors corporation (amc; commonly referred to as american motors) was an american automobile manufacturing company formed by the merger of nash-kelvinator corporation and hudson motor car company on may 1, 1954.at the time, it was the largest corporate merger in u.s. history.american motors' most similar competitors were those automakers that held similar annual sales levels such as studebaker, packard, kaiser motors, and willys-overland.their largest competitors were the big three—ford, general motors, and chrysler.american motors' production line included small cars - the rambler american, which began as the nash rambler in 1950, hornet, gremlin, and pacer; intermediate and full-sized cars, including the ambassador, rambler classic, rebel, and matador; muscle cars, including the marlin, amx, and javelin; and early four-wheel drive variants of the eagle and the jeep wagoneer, the first true crossovers in the u.s. market.regarded as 'a small company deft enough to exploit special market segments left untended by the giants', american motors was widely known for the design work of chief stylist dick teague, who 'had to make do with a much tighter budget than his counterparts at detroit's big three', but 'had a knack for making the most of his employer's investment'.after periods of intermittent independent success, renault acquired a major interest in american motors in 1979, and the company was ultimately acquired by chrysler in 1987.the new corporation would be called the american motors corporation.an earlier corporation with the same name, co-founded by louis chevrolet, had existed in plainfield, new jersey from 1916 through 1922 before merging into the bessemer–american motors corporation.the nash-kelvinator/hudson deal was a straight stock transfer (three shares of hudson listed at 11⅛, for two shares of american motors and one share of nash-kelvinator listed at 17⅜, for one share of american motors) and finalized in the spring of 1954, forming the fourth-biggest auto company in the u.s. with assets of us$355 million and more than $100 million in working capital.the new company retained hudson ceo a.e.barit as a consultant and he took a seat on the board of directors.nash's george w. mason became president and ceo.mason, the architect of the merger, believed that the survival of the u.s.'s remaining independent automakers was dependent on their joining in one multiple-brand company capable of challenging the big three as an equal.the 'frantic 1953–54 ford/gm price war' had a devastating impact on the remaining 'independent' automakers.the reasons for the merger between nash and hudson included helping cut costs and strengthen their sales organizations to meet the intense competition expected from autos' big three.one quick result from the merger was the doubling up with nash on purchasing and production, allowing hudson to cut prices an average of $155 on the wasp line, and up to $204 on the more expensive hornet models.after the merger, amc had its first profitable quarter during the second three months of 1955, earning $1,592,307, compared to a loss of $3,848,667 during the same period in the previous year.mason also entered into informal discussions with james j. nance of packard to outline his strategic vision.interim plans were made for american motors to buy packard ultramatic automatic transmissions and packard v8 engines for certain american motors products.in july 1954, packard acquired studebaker.the new studebaker-packard corporation (s-p) made the new 320 cu in (5.2 l) packard v8 engine and packard's ultramatic automatic transmission available to american motors for its 1955 nash ambassador and hudson hornet models.when mason died in 1954, george w. romney succeeded him.ironically, romney had once been offered nance's job.in 1948, romney received offers from packard for the post of chief operating officer and from nash for the number two position in the company.

deep submergence vessel nr-1 was a unique united states navy (usn) nuclear-powered ocean engineering and research submarine, built by the electric boat division of general dynamics at groton, connecticut.nr-1 was launched on 25 january 1969, completed initial sea trials 19 august 1969, and was home-ported at naval submarine base new london.nr-1 was the smallest nuclear submarine ever put into operation.the vessel was casually known as 'nerwin' and was never officially named or commissioned.the u.s. navy is allocated a specific number of warships by the u.s. congress, but admiral hyman rickover avoided using one of those allocations for the construction of nr-1 in order to circumvent the oversight that a warship receives from various bureaus.nr-1 had the unique capability to remain at one site and completely map or search an area with a high degree of accuracy, and this was a valuable asset on several occasions.in the 1970s and 1980s, nr-1 conducted numerous classified missions involving recovery of objects from the floor of the deep sea.these missions remain classified and few details have been made public.one publicly acknowledged mission in 1976 was to recover parts of an f-14 that were lost from the deck of an aircraft carrier and sank with at least one aim-54a phoenix air-to-air missile.the secrecy typical of usn submarine operations was heightened by rickover's personal involvement, and he shared details of nr-1 operations only on a need-to-know basis.rickover envisioned building a small fleet of nr-1 type submarines, but only one was built due to budget restrictions.following the loss of the space shuttle challenger in 1986, nr-1 was used to search for, identify, and recover critical parts of the challenger craft.it could remain on the sea floor without resurfacing frequently, and was a major tool for searching deep waters.nr-1 remained submerged and on station even when heavy weather and rough seas hit the area and forced all other search and recovery ships into port.: 65 in october 1994, a survey was done by the nr-1 off the florida straits 65 km southwest of key west where it encountered and explored an uncharted sink hole.on 2 december 1998, an advisory committee approved the name 'nr-1' for the hole.in 1995, robert ballard used the nr-1 and its support ship mv carolyn chouest to explore the wreck of hmhs britannic, the sister ship of rms titanic, which sank off the coast of greece while serving as a hospital ship during world war i.on 25 february 2007, nr-1 arrived in galveston, texas, towed by carolyn chouest, in preparation for an expedition to survey the flower garden banks national marine sanctuary and other sites in the gulf of mexico.nr-1 was deactivated on 21 november 2008 at the u.s. navy submarine base at groton, connecticut, defuelled at portsmouth naval shipyard in kittery, maine, then sent to puget sound naval shipyard to be scrapped.on 13 november 2013, the u.s. navy announced that salvaged pieces of the sub would be put on display at the submarine force library and museum in groton.its features included extending bottoming wheels, three viewing ports, exterior lighting, television and still cameras for color photographic studies, an object recovery claw, a manipulator that could be fitted with various gripping and cutting tools, and a work basket that could be used in conjunction with the manipulator to deposit or recover items in the sea.surface vision was provided by a television periscope permanently installed on a fixed mast in her sail area.: 6 nr-1 had sophisticated electronics, computers, and sonar systems that aided in navigation, communications, and object location and identification.

the navy distinguished service medal is a military decoration of the united states navy and united states marine corps which was first created in 1919 and is presented to sailors and marines to recognize distinguished and exceptionally meritorious service to the united states while serving in a duty or position of great responsibility.navy distinguished service medal is equivalent to the army's distinguished service medal, air and space forces' air force distinguished service medal, and the coast guard distinguished service medal.the navy distinguished service medal was originally senior to the navy cross, until august 1942 when the precedence of the two decorations was reversed.currently, it is worn after the defense distinguished service medal and before the silver star medal.to recognize acts deserving recognition, but at a level below that required for the medal of honor, the navy distinguished service medal and the navy cross were created by public law 253 on 4 february 1919.the law made the award retroactive to 6 april 1917.the first award of the decoration was a posthumous presentation to brigadier general charles a. doyen, usmc, on 13 march 1919.originally senior in precedence to the navy cross, the navy distinguished service medal assumed its current place below the navy cross by congressional action on 7 august 1942.to justify this decoration, exceptional performance of duty must be clearly above that normally expected, and contributes to the success of a major command or project.generally, the distinguished service medal is awarded to officers in principal commands at sea, or in the field, whose service is of a manner to justify the award.however, this does not preclude the award of the navy distinguished service medal to any individual who meets the service requirements.the term 'great responsibility' implies senior military responsibility, and the decoration is normally only bestowed to senior navy flag officers and marine corps general officers, or extremely senior enlisted positions such as the master chief petty officer of the navy or the sergeant major of the marine corps.in rare instances, it has also been awarded to navy captains and marine corps colonels, typically those in positions of significant responsibility in direct support of senior flag and general officers, and then only by exception (usually at retirement).the obverse of the medal depicts an american bald eagle in the center displaying its wings.the eagle holds an olive branch in its right talon and arrows in its left talons.the eagle is surrounded by a blue enameled ring with the words, • united • states • of • america • at the top and • navy • at the bottom.surrounding the blue enamel ring is a gold border of scroll waves depicted moving in a clockwise direction.the medal is surmounted by a white five-pointed star, point up, the points of the star being tipped with gold balls.in the center of the star is a blue anchor, while gold rays radiate between the arms of the star.the reverse of the medal depicts a trident surrounded by a laurel wreath.the wreath is surrounded by a blue enamel ring containing the inscription for distinguished service.like the obverse, the blue enamel ring on the reverse is surrounded by scroll waves.the medal's suspension and service ribbon is navy blue with a single central stripe of yellow.additional awards of the navy distinguished service medal are denoted by gold and silver 5/16 inch stars worn on the medal's suspension and service ribbon.

amarillo ( am-ə-ril-oh; spanish for 'yellow') is a city in the u.s. state of texas and the seat of potter county.it is the 14th-most populous city in texas and the largest city in the texas panhandle.a portion of the city extends into randall county.the estimated population of amarillo was 200,393 as of april 1, 2020.the amarillo-pampa-borger combined statistical area had an estimated population of 308,297 as of 2020.the city of amarillo, originally named oneida, is situated in the llano estacado region.the availability of the railroad and freight service provided by the fort worth and denver city railroad contributed to the city's growth as a cattle-marketing center in the late 19th century.amarillo was once the self-proclaimed 'helium capital of the world' for having one of the country's most productive helium fields.the city is also known as 'the yellow rose of texas' (as the city takes its name from the spanish word for yellow), 'yellow city' for its name, and 'rotor city, usa' for its v-22 osprey hybrid aircraft assembly plant.amarillo operates one of the largest meat-packing areas in the united states.pantex, the only nuclear weapons assembly and disassembly facility in the country, is also a major employer.the location of this facility also gave rise to the nickname 'bomb city'.the attractions cadillac ranch, and big texan steak ranch are located adjacent to interstate 40.u.s. highway 66 also passed through the city.berry and colorado city, texas, merchants wanted to make their new town site the region's main trading center.on august 30, 1887, berry's town site won the county seat election and was established in potter county.availability of the railroad and freight service after the county seat election made the town a fast-growing cattle-marketing center.the settlement originally was called oneida; it later changed its name to amarillo, which probably derived from yellow wildflowers that were plentiful during the spring and summer or the nearby amarillo lake and amarillo creek, named in turn for the yellow soil along their banks and shores (amarillo is the spanish word for the color yellow).early residents originally pronounced the city's name more similar to the spanish pronunciation ah-mə-ree-yoh, which was later displaced by the current pronunciation.on june 19, 1888, henry b. sanborn, who is given credit as the 'father of amarillo', and his business partner joseph f. glidden began buying land to the east to move amarillo after arguing that berry's site was on low ground and would flood during rainstorms.sanborn also offered to trade lots in the new location to businesses in the original city's site and help with the expense of moving to new buildings.his incentives gradually won over people, who moved their businesses to polk street in the new commercial district.heavy rains almost flooded berry's part of the town in 1889, prompting more people to move to sanborn's location.this eventually led to another county seat election making sanborn's town the new county seat in 1893.by the late 1890s, amarillo had emerged as one of the world's busiest cattle-shipping points, and its population grew significantly.the city became a grain elevator, milling, and feed-manufacturing center after an increase in production of wheat and small grains during the early 1900s.discovery of natural gas in 1918 and oil three years later brought oil and gas companies to the amarillo area.the united states government bought the cliffside gas field with high helium content in 1927 and the federal bureau of mines began operating the amarillo helium plant two years later.the plant was the sole producer of commercial helium in the world for a number of years.

the navy distinguished service medal is a military decoration of the united states navy and united states marine corps which was first created in 1919 and is presented to sailors and marines to recognize distinguished and exceptionally meritorious service to the united states while serving in a duty or position of great responsibility.navy distinguished service medal is equivalent to the army's distinguished service medal, air and space forces' air force distinguished service medal, and the coast guard distinguished service medal.the navy distinguished service medal was originally senior to the navy cross, until august 1942 when the precedence of the two decorations was reversed.currently, it is worn after the defense distinguished service medal and before the silver star medal.to recognize acts deserving recognition, but at a level below that required for the medal of honor, the navy distinguished service medal and the navy cross were created by public law 253 on 4 february 1919.the law made the award retroactive to 6 april 1917.the first award of the decoration was a posthumous presentation to brigadier general charles a. doyen, usmc, on 13 march 1919.originally senior in precedence to the navy cross, the navy distinguished service medal assumed its current place below the navy cross by congressional action on 7 august 1942.to justify this decoration, exceptional performance of duty must be clearly above that normally expected, and contributes to the success of a major command or project.generally, the distinguished service medal is awarded to officers in principal commands at sea, or in the field, whose service is of a manner to justify the award.however, this does not preclude the award of the navy distinguished service medal to any individual who meets the service requirements.the term 'great responsibility' implies senior military responsibility, and the decoration is normally only bestowed to senior navy flag officers and marine corps general officers, or extremely senior enlisted positions such as the master chief petty officer of the navy or the sergeant major of the marine corps.in rare instances, it has also been awarded to navy captains and marine corps colonels, typically those in positions of significant responsibility in direct support of senior flag and general officers, and then only by exception (usually at retirement).the obverse of the medal depicts an american bald eagle in the center displaying its wings.the eagle holds an olive branch in its right talon and arrows in its left talons.the eagle is surrounded by a blue enameled ring with the words, • united • states • of • america • at the top and • navy • at the bottom.surrounding the blue enamel ring is a gold border of scroll waves depicted moving in a clockwise direction.the medal is surmounted by a white five-pointed star, point up, the points of the star being tipped with gold balls.in the center of the star is a blue anchor, while gold rays radiate between the arms of the star.the reverse of the medal depicts a trident surrounded by a laurel wreath.the wreath is surrounded by a blue enamel ring containing the inscription for distinguished service.like the obverse, the blue enamel ring on the reverse is surrounded by scroll waves.the medal's suspension and service ribbon is navy blue with a single central stripe of yellow.additional awards of the navy distinguished service medal are denoted by gold and silver 5/16 inch stars worn on the medal's suspension and service ribbon.

deep submergence vessel nr-1 was a unique united states navy (usn) nuclear-powered ocean engineering and research submarine, built by the electric boat division of general dynamics at groton, connecticut.nr-1 was launched on 25 january 1969, completed initial sea trials 19 august 1969, and was home-ported at naval submarine base new london.nr-1 was the smallest nuclear submarine ever put into operation.the vessel was casually known as 'nerwin' and was never officially named or commissioned.the u.s. navy is allocated a specific number of warships by the u.s. congress, but admiral hyman rickover avoided using one of those allocations for the construction of nr-1 in order to circumvent the oversight that a warship receives from various bureaus.nr-1 had the unique capability to remain at one site and completely map or search an area with a high degree of accuracy, and this was a valuable asset on several occasions.in the 1970s and 1980s, nr-1 conducted numerous classified missions involving recovery of objects from the floor of the deep sea.these missions remain classified and few details have been made public.one publicly acknowledged mission in 1976 was to recover parts of an f-14 that were lost from the deck of an aircraft carrier and sank with at least one aim-54a phoenix air-to-air missile.the secrecy typical of usn submarine operations was heightened by rickover's personal involvement, and he shared details of nr-1 operations only on a need-to-know basis.rickover envisioned building a small fleet of nr-1 type submarines, but only one was built due to budget restrictions.following the loss of the space shuttle challenger in 1986, nr-1 was used to search for, identify, and recover critical parts of the challenger craft.it could remain on the sea floor without resurfacing frequently, and was a major tool for searching deep waters.nr-1 remained submerged and on station even when heavy weather and rough seas hit the area and forced all other search and recovery ships into port.: 65 in october 1994, a survey was done by the nr-1 off the florida straits 65 km southwest of key west where it encountered and explored an uncharted sink hole.on 2 december 1998, an advisory committee approved the name 'nr-1' for the hole.in 1995, robert ballard used the nr-1 and its support ship mv carolyn chouest to explore the wreck of hmhs britannic, the sister ship of rms titanic, which sank off the coast of greece while serving as a hospital ship during world war i.on 25 february 2007, nr-1 arrived in galveston, texas, towed by carolyn chouest, in preparation for an expedition to survey the flower garden banks national marine sanctuary and other sites in the gulf of mexico.nr-1 was deactivated on 21 november 2008 at the u.s. navy submarine base at groton, connecticut, defuelled at portsmouth naval shipyard in kittery, maine, then sent to puget sound naval shipyard to be scrapped.on 13 november 2013, the u.s. navy announced that salvaged pieces of the sub would be put on display at the submarine force library and museum in groton.its features included extending bottoming wheels, three viewing ports, exterior lighting, television and still cameras for color photographic studies, an object recovery claw, a manipulator that could be fitted with various gripping and cutting tools, and a work basket that could be used in conjunction with the manipulator to deposit or recover items in the sea.surface vision was provided by a television periscope permanently installed on a fixed mast in her sail area.: 6 nr-1 had sophisticated electronics, computers, and sonar systems that aided in navigation, communications, and object location and identification.

deep submergence vessel nr-1 was a unique united states navy (usn) nuclear-powered ocean engineering and research submarine, built by the electric boat division of general dynamics at groton, connecticut.nr-1 was launched on 25 january 1969, completed initial sea trials 19 august 1969, and was home-ported at naval submarine base new london.nr-1 was the smallest nuclear submarine ever put into operation.the vessel was casually known as 'nerwin' and was never officially named or commissioned.the u.s. navy is allocated a specific number of warships by the u.s. congress, but admiral hyman rickover avoided using one of those allocations for the construction of nr-1 in order to circumvent the oversight that a warship receives from various bureaus.nr-1 had the unique capability to remain at one site and completely map or search an area with a high degree of accuracy, and this was a valuable asset on several occasions.in the 1970s and 1980s, nr-1 conducted numerous classified missions involving recovery of objects from the floor of the deep sea.these missions remain classified and few details have been made public.one publicly acknowledged mission in 1976 was to recover parts of an f-14 that were lost from the deck of an aircraft carrier and sank with at least one aim-54a phoenix air-to-air missile.the secrecy typical of usn submarine operations was heightened by rickover's personal involvement, and he shared details of nr-1 operations only on a need-to-know basis.rickover envisioned building a small fleet of nr-1 type submarines, but only one was built due to budget restrictions.following the loss of the space shuttle challenger in 1986, nr-1 was used to search for, identify, and recover critical parts of the challenger craft.it could remain on the sea floor without resurfacing frequently, and was a major tool for searching deep waters.nr-1 remained submerged and on station even when heavy weather and rough seas hit the area and forced all other search and recovery ships into port.: 65 in october 1994, a survey was done by the nr-1 off the florida straits 65 km southwest of key west where it encountered and explored an uncharted sink hole.on 2 december 1998, an advisory committee approved the name 'nr-1' for the hole.in 1995, robert ballard used the nr-1 and its support ship mv carolyn chouest to explore the wreck of hmhs britannic, the sister ship of rms titanic, which sank off the coast of greece while serving as a hospital ship during world war i.on 25 february 2007, nr-1 arrived in galveston, texas, towed by carolyn chouest, in preparation for an expedition to survey the flower garden banks national marine sanctuary and other sites in the gulf of mexico.nr-1 was deactivated on 21 november 2008 at the u.s. navy submarine base at groton, connecticut, defuelled at portsmouth naval shipyard in kittery, maine, then sent to puget sound naval shipyard to be scrapped.on 13 november 2013, the u.s. navy announced that salvaged pieces of the sub would be put on display at the submarine force library and museum in groton.its features included extending bottoming wheels, three viewing ports, exterior lighting, television and still cameras for color photographic studies, an object recovery claw, a manipulator that could be fitted with various gripping and cutting tools, and a work basket that could be used in conjunction with the manipulator to deposit or recover items in the sea.surface vision was provided by a television periscope permanently installed on a fixed mast in her sail area.: 6 nr-1 had sophisticated electronics, computers, and sonar systems that aided in navigation, communications, and object location and identification.

deep submergence vessel nr-1 was a unique united states navy (usn) nuclear-powered ocean engineering and research submarine, built by the electric boat division of general dynamics at groton, connecticut.nr-1 was launched on 25 january 1969, completed initial sea trials 19 august 1969, and was home-ported at naval submarine base new london.nr-1 was the smallest nuclear submarine ever put into operation.the vessel was casually known as 'nerwin' and was never officially named or commissioned.the u.s. navy is allocated a specific number of warships by the u.s. congress, but admiral hyman rickover avoided using one of those allocations for the construction of nr-1 in order to circumvent the oversight that a warship receives from various bureaus.nr-1 had the unique capability to remain at one site and completely map or search an area with a high degree of accuracy, and this was a valuable asset on several occasions.in the 1970s and 1980s, nr-1 conducted numerous classified missions involving recovery of objects from the floor of the deep sea.these missions remain classified and few details have been made public.one publicly acknowledged mission in 1976 was to recover parts of an f-14 that were lost from the deck of an aircraft carrier and sank with at least one aim-54a phoenix air-to-air missile.the secrecy typical of usn submarine operations was heightened by rickover's personal involvement, and he shared details of nr-1 operations only on a need-to-know basis.rickover envisioned building a small fleet of nr-1 type submarines, but only one was built due to budget restrictions.following the loss of the space shuttle challenger in 1986, nr-1 was used to search for, identify, and recover critical parts of the challenger craft.it could remain on the sea floor without resurfacing frequently, and was a major tool for searching deep waters.nr-1 remained submerged and on station even when heavy weather and rough seas hit the area and forced all other search and recovery ships into port.: 65 in october 1994, a survey was done by the nr-1 off the florida straits 65 km southwest of key west where it encountered and explored an uncharted sink hole.on 2 december 1998, an advisory committee approved the name 'nr-1' for the hole.in 1995, robert ballard used the nr-1 and its support ship mv carolyn chouest to explore the wreck of hmhs britannic, the sister ship of rms titanic, which sank off the coast of greece while serving as a hospital ship during world war i.on 25 february 2007, nr-1 arrived in galveston, texas, towed by carolyn chouest, in preparation for an expedition to survey the flower garden banks national marine sanctuary and other sites in the gulf of mexico.nr-1 was deactivated on 21 november 2008 at the u.s. navy submarine base at groton, connecticut, defuelled at portsmouth naval shipyard in kittery, maine, then sent to puget sound naval shipyard to be scrapped.on 13 november 2013, the u.s. navy announced that salvaged pieces of the sub would be put on display at the submarine force library and museum in groton.its features included extending bottoming wheels, three viewing ports, exterior lighting, television and still cameras for color photographic studies, an object recovery claw, a manipulator that could be fitted with various gripping and cutting tools, and a work basket that could be used in conjunction with the manipulator to deposit or recover items in the sea.surface vision was provided by a television periscope permanently installed on a fixed mast in her sail area.: 6 nr-1 had sophisticated electronics, computers, and sonar systems that aided in navigation, communications, and object location and identification.

antares (), known during early development as taurus ii, is an expendable launch system developed by orbital sciences corporation (now part of northrop grumman) and the pivdenne design bureau to launch the cygnus spacecraft to the international space station as part of nasa's cots and crs programs.able to launch payloads heavier than 8,000 kg (18,000 lb) into low earth orbit, antares is currently the largest rocket operated by northrop grumman.antares launches from the mid-atlantic regional spaceport and made its inaugural flight on april 21, 2013.nasa awarded orbital a commercial orbital transportation services (cots) space act agreement (saa) in 2008 to demonstrate delivery of cargo to the international space station.for these cots missions orbital intends to use antares to launch its cygnus spacecraft.in addition, antares will compete for small-to-medium missions.originally designated the taurus ii, orbital sciences renamed the vehicle antares, after the star of the same name, on december 12, 2011.out of 17 total launches, antares has suffered one failure.during the fifth launch on october 28, 2014, the rocket failed catastrophically, and the vehicle and payload were destroyed.the rocket's first-stage engines were identified as the cause for the failure.a different engine was chosen for subsequent launches, and the rocket had a successful return to flight on october 17, 2016.the antares has flown two major design iterations, the 100 series and 200 series.both series have used a castor 30xl as an upper stage but have differed on the first stage.the 100 series used two kerolox powered aj26 engine in the first stage and launched successfully four times.the 100 series was retired following a launch failure in 2014.the 200 series which first flew in 2016 also featured a kerolox first stage but instead used two rd-181 engine along with other minor upgrades.the 200 series future became uncertain following the russian invasion of ukraine.due to the first stage being produced in ukraine and the engines in russia, future production of the rocket was unable to be continued.as a result northrop grumman entered into an agreement with firefly aerospace to build the first stage of the antares 300 series.northrop also contracted with spacex for 3 falcon 9 launches.a commercial resupply service contract of $1.9 billion for eight flights was awarded in 2008.as of april 2012, development costs were estimated at $472 million.in june 2008, it was announced that the mid-atlantic regional spaceport, formerly part of the wallops flight facility, in virginia, would be the primary launch site for the rocket.launch pad 0a (lp-0a), previously used for the failed conestoga rocket, would be modified to handle antares.wallops allows launches which reach the international space station's orbit as effectively as those from cape canaveral, florida, while being less crowded.the first antares flight launched a cygnus mass simulator.on december 10, 2009, alliant techsystems inc. (atk) test-fired their castor 30 motor for use on the second stage of the antares rocket.in march 2010, orbital sciences and aerojet completed test firings of the aj-26 engines.on february 22, 2013, a hot fire test was successfully performed, the entire first stage being erected on the pad and held down while the engines fired for 29 seconds.as orbital had little experience with large liquid stages and lox propellant, the first stage core was designed and is manufactured in ukraine by kb pivdenne and pivdenmash and includes propellant tanks, pressurization tanks, valves, sensors, feed lines, tubing, wiring and other associated hardware.like the zenit—also manufactured by yuzhmash—the antares vehicle has a diameter of 3.9 m (150 in) with a matching 3.9 m payload fairing.

antares (), known during early development as taurus ii, is an expendable launch system developed by orbital sciences corporation (now part of northrop grumman) and the pivdenne design bureau to launch the cygnus spacecraft to the international space station as part of nasa's cots and crs programs.able to launch payloads heavier than 8,000 kg (18,000 lb) into low earth orbit, antares is currently the largest rocket operated by northrop grumman.antares launches from the mid-atlantic regional spaceport and made its inaugural flight on april 21, 2013.nasa awarded orbital a commercial orbital transportation services (cots) space act agreement (saa) in 2008 to demonstrate delivery of cargo to the international space station.for these cots missions orbital intends to use antares to launch its cygnus spacecraft.in addition, antares will compete for small-to-medium missions.originally designated the taurus ii, orbital sciences renamed the vehicle antares, after the star of the same name, on december 12, 2011.out of 17 total launches, antares has suffered one failure.during the fifth launch on october 28, 2014, the rocket failed catastrophically, and the vehicle and payload were destroyed.the rocket's first-stage engines were identified as the cause for the failure.a different engine was chosen for subsequent launches, and the rocket had a successful return to flight on october 17, 2016.the antares has flown two major design iterations, the 100 series and 200 series.both series have used a castor 30xl as an upper stage but have differed on the first stage.the 100 series used two kerolox powered aj26 engine in the first stage and launched successfully four times.the 100 series was retired following a launch failure in 2014.the 200 series which first flew in 2016 also featured a kerolox first stage but instead used two rd-181 engine along with other minor upgrades.the 200 series future became uncertain following the russian invasion of ukraine.due to the first stage being produced in ukraine and the engines in russia, future production of the rocket was unable to be continued.as a result northrop grumman entered into an agreement with firefly aerospace to build the first stage of the antares 300 series.northrop also contracted with spacex for 3 falcon 9 launches.a commercial resupply service contract of $1.9 billion for eight flights was awarded in 2008.as of april 2012, development costs were estimated at $472 million.in june 2008, it was announced that the mid-atlantic regional spaceport, formerly part of the wallops flight facility, in virginia, would be the primary launch site for the rocket.launch pad 0a (lp-0a), previously used for the failed conestoga rocket, would be modified to handle antares.wallops allows launches which reach the international space station's orbit as effectively as those from cape canaveral, florida, while being less crowded.the first antares flight launched a cygnus mass simulator.on december 10, 2009, alliant techsystems inc. (atk) test-fired their castor 30 motor for use on the second stage of the antares rocket.in march 2010, orbital sciences and aerojet completed test firings of the aj-26 engines.on february 22, 2013, a hot fire test was successfully performed, the entire first stage being erected on the pad and held down while the engines fired for 29 seconds.as orbital had little experience with large liquid stages and lox propellant, the first stage core was designed and is manufactured in ukraine by kb pivdenne and pivdenmash and includes propellant tanks, pressurization tanks, valves, sensors, feed lines, tubing, wiring and other associated hardware.like the zenit—also manufactured by yuzhmash—the antares vehicle has a diameter of 3.9 m (150 in) with a matching 3.9 m payload fairing.

antares (), known during early development as taurus ii, is an expendable launch system developed by orbital sciences corporation (now part of northrop grumman) and the pivdenne design bureau to launch the cygnus spacecraft to the international space station as part of nasa's cots and crs programs.able to launch payloads heavier than 8,000 kg (18,000 lb) into low earth orbit, antares is currently the largest rocket operated by northrop grumman.antares launches from the mid-atlantic regional spaceport and made its inaugural flight on april 21, 2013.nasa awarded orbital a commercial orbital transportation services (cots) space act agreement (saa) in 2008 to demonstrate delivery of cargo to the international space station.for these cots missions orbital intends to use antares to launch its cygnus spacecraft.in addition, antares will compete for small-to-medium missions.originally designated the taurus ii, orbital sciences renamed the vehicle antares, after the star of the same name, on december 12, 2011.out of 17 total launches, antares has suffered one failure.during the fifth launch on october 28, 2014, the rocket failed catastrophically, and the vehicle and payload were destroyed.the rocket's first-stage engines were identified as the cause for the failure.a different engine was chosen for subsequent launches, and the rocket had a successful return to flight on october 17, 2016.the antares has flown two major design iterations, the 100 series and 200 series.both series have used a castor 30xl as an upper stage but have differed on the first stage.the 100 series used two kerolox powered aj26 engine in the first stage and launched successfully four times.the 100 series was retired following a launch failure in 2014.the 200 series which first flew in 2016 also featured a kerolox first stage but instead used two rd-181 engine along with other minor upgrades.the 200 series future became uncertain following the russian invasion of ukraine.due to the first stage being produced in ukraine and the engines in russia, future production of the rocket was unable to be continued.as a result northrop grumman entered into an agreement with firefly aerospace to build the first stage of the antares 300 series.northrop also contracted with spacex for 3 falcon 9 launches.a commercial resupply service contract of $1.9 billion for eight flights was awarded in 2008.as of april 2012, development costs were estimated at $472 million.in june 2008, it was announced that the mid-atlantic regional spaceport, formerly part of the wallops flight facility, in virginia, would be the primary launch site for the rocket.launch pad 0a (lp-0a), previously used for the failed conestoga rocket, would be modified to handle antares.wallops allows launches which reach the international space station's orbit as effectively as those from cape canaveral, florida, while being less crowded.the first antares flight launched a cygnus mass simulator.on december 10, 2009, alliant techsystems inc. (atk) test-fired their castor 30 motor for use on the second stage of the antares rocket.in march 2010, orbital sciences and aerojet completed test firings of the aj-26 engines.on february 22, 2013, a hot fire test was successfully performed, the entire first stage being erected on the pad and held down while the engines fired for 29 seconds.as orbital had little experience with large liquid stages and lox propellant, the first stage core was designed and is manufactured in ukraine by kb pivdenne and pivdenmash and includes propellant tanks, pressurization tanks, valves, sensors, feed lines, tubing, wiring and other associated hardware.like the zenit—also manufactured by yuzhmash—the antares vehicle has a diameter of 3.9 m (150 in) with a matching 3.9 m payload fairing.
