A small technical collaboration group with literary sidelines
BACKGROUND
Tushino Ltd was originally just a device for keeping side-earnings separate and visible
so as to avoid any problems with the Inland Revenue - the UK's tax authority.
In the UK
no-one wants to get on the wrong side of the Inland Revenue.
CURRENTLY ...
Tushino Ltd evolved into a non-profit research hub and provides a micro-forum for recently
retired engineers and other scientists.
Tushino is never allowed to get big : Only one or two projects and only a few friends working on each one.
AVIAN NAVIGATION
We are trying to figure out how migrating birds navigate.
In an extreme example, in October 2022 a bar-tailed godwit, four months old, flew from
Alaska to Tasmania in 11 days. The distance would be just about 13,500 km.
How did it know the way ?
PHASE CHANGES
The academic theory of phase changes seems to have little connection with the realities of a chemical
manufacturing plant.
We are preparing data from a new idea.
LANGUAGE SUPPORT
We supply our "Small Pieces" which are short English language extracts which act as
elbow joggers for people who don't use a foreign language every day but still need to keep current. To see these services click on this link.
