Encyclopedia > Naveta

A naveta is a megalithic chamber tomb unique to the Balearic island of Minorca. It dates to the early Bronze Age. It has two vertical and two corbelled walls giving it the form of an unpturned boat which is where the name comes from.


The largest example is the Naveta dels Tudons which is around 4m high, 14m long and 6.4m wide.

In ciuda esecului folosirii celor 4,8 metrii ai antenei principale de comunicare, naveta spatiala Galileo s-a dovedit productiva din momentul intrarii pe orbita lui Jupiter in decembrie 1995.
Naveta spatiala Galileo si-a rezumat activitatea la doar cateva operatiuni normale, datorita unei opriri bruste in timp ce orbita planeta Jupiter si satelitul sau numit Io.
Lansat in 1989, naveta in valoare de 1.4 miliarde de dolari a descoperit un asteroid cu un satelit, o cometa care a lovit planeta Jupiter si numeroase cratere de pe satelitul Io, cel mai vulcanic corp din sistemul solar.
