  • How a lunar 'standstill' is shining new light on Stonehenge
    DUKAS_171597181_EYE
    How a lunar 'standstill' is shining new light on Stonehenge
    Experts say some of structure’s stones may have been set to mark an event that only happens every 18.6 years.

    This weekend, archaeologists, astronomers and archaeoastronomers (who study how prehistoric people responded to the sky) arrived at the time of the full moon to explore the theory that the Stonehenge creators may have set up some stones to mark the lunar standstill, when moonrise and moonset are farthest apart along the horizon.

    Archaeologists and astronomers use a total station to track a lunar event at Stonehenge in studying the Wiltshire site’s lesser understood connection to the moon (21 June 2024).

    Paratroopers have demonstrated the firepower that they could bring to bear during combat missions as the British Armyís global response force.

    As the culmination of a course in support weapons skills, paratroopers staged a firepower demonstration on Salisbury Plain.
    A fast-moving scenario saw an advancing force of enemy armoured vehicles engaged and defeated with Javelin and NLAW anti-tank missiles, 81mm mortar, Grenade Machine Guns,

    Heavy Machine Guns and General Purpose Machine Guns. Paratroopers opened fire from both ground positions and while moving in RWMIK patrol vehicles.
    The five-week-long Support Weapons Cadres trained soldiers from Colchester-based 2nd and 3rd Battalions The Parachute Regiment to serve in their unitís specialist Machine gun, Mortar and Anti-tanks platoons.

    Soldiers were taught the practical skills to fire and maintain weapons in the field, and how to use firepower in different tactical scenarios.© UK MOD Crown copyright / eyevine

    The 300-strong UK Task Group destined for Mali have completed their Mission Rehearsal Exercise ahead of their upcoming deployment to support the UN. There they will help to promote peace and counter instability in the region.

    Having completed integration training in July of this year, the soldiers of the UK Task Group donned the famous blue UN beret on Thetford and Salisbury Plain training areas in October as they underwent final assessment by the Mission Training and Mobilisation Centre. The troops were put through a range of realistic scenarios that they may encounter in Mali while supporting the UN, from engaging with locals in a complex social landscape to conducting patrols and dealing with suspected IED’s (Improvised Explosive Devices).
