The Instrument Landing System Up to now‚ your instrument approach experience has allowed you to land in weather conditions as adverse as an overcast ceiling of 400 ft. and visibility as low as one-half mile. NDB and VOR approaches‚ with their lateral guidance to the runway‚ greatly improve the reliability of flight schedules. But without the capability to provide vertical guidance to the runway they are limited in utility. No vertical guidance classes them as non-precision approaches. The

interesting theories that cannot be observed is the Moon’s magnetic field‚ and why there is not one anymore. Moon rocks Colwell 7 brought back from the Apollo age astronauts shows that at some point the moon did have a magnetic field as strong as the Earth’s at some point. From analyzing the way the rock formed‚ the scientists can determine how long the Moon had a magnetic field. From their research they have discovered that a magnetic field persisted for much longer than it should have and the only reason
