A shoe is an item of footwear evolved at first to protect the human foot and later, additionally, as an item of decoration in itself. The foot contains more bones than any other single part of the body, and has evolved over hundreds of thousands of years in relation to vastly varied terrain and climatic conditions. Together with the proprioceptive system, it is what makes balance and ambulation possible.
Until recent years, shoes were not worn by most of the world's population—largely because they could not afford them. Only with the advent of mass production, making available for the first time the cheap flip-flop-type sandal, for example, has shoe-wearing become predominant.
The design of shoes has varied enormously through time, and from culture to culture, with appearance originally being tied to function. Additionally fashion has often dictated whether shoes have, for example, very high heels or no heels at all. Contemporary footwear varies in style, complexity and cost, from the most basic sandal, via high fashion shoes for women sometimes costing thousands of dollars a pair, to complex boots specially designed for mountaineering or skiing. Shoes have traditionally been made from leather, wood or canvas, but are increasingly made from rubber, plastics, and other petrochemical-derived materials.
Luar angkasa atau angkasa luar atau antariksa (juga disebut sebagai angkasa), merujuk ke bagian yang relatif kosong dari Jagad Raya, di luar atmosfer dari benda "celestial". Istilah luar angkasa digunakan untuk membedakannya dengan ruang udara dan lokasi "terrestrial".
Karena atmosfer Bumi tidak memiliki batas yang jelas, namun terdiri dari lapisan yang secara bertahap semakin menipis dengan naiknya ketinggian, tidak ada batasan yang jelas antara atmosfer dan angkasa. Ketinggian 100 kilometer atau 62 mil ditetapkan oleh Federation Aeronautique Internationale merupakan definisi yang paling banyak diterima sebagai batasan antara atmosfer dan angkasa.
Di Amerika Serikat, seseorang yang berada di atas ketinggian 80 km ditetapkan sebagai astronot. 120 km (75 mil atau 400.000 kaki) menandai batasan di manaProses masuk-kembali dari orbit dimulai pada 122 km (400.000 ft).

Masuk dan lihatlah di rumah kediaman saya yang baru !! !!Badminton is a racquet sport played by either two opposing players (singles) or two opposing pairs (doubles), who take positions on opposite halves of a rectangular court that is divided by a net. Players score points by striking a shuttlecock with their racquet so that it passes over the net and lands in their opponents' half of the court. A rally ends once the shuttlecock has struck the ground, and each side may only strike the shuttlecock once before it passes over the net.
The shuttlecock (or shuttle) is a feathered projectile whose unique aerodynamic properties cause it to fly differently from the balls used in most racquet sports; in particular, the feathers create much higher drag, causing the shuttlecock to decelerate more rapidly than a ball. Shuttlecocks have a much higher top speed, when compared to other racquet sports. Because shuttlecock flight is affected by wind, competitive badminton is best played indoors. Badminton is also played outdoors as a casual recreational activity, often as a garden or beach game.
Since 1992, badminton has been an Olympic sport with five events: men's and women's singles, men's and women's doubles, and mixed doubles, in which each pair is a man and a woman. At high levels of play, the sport demands excellent fitness: players require aerobic stamina, agility, strength, speed and precision. It is also a technical sport, requiring good motor coordination and the development of sophisticated racquet movements.
