Japanese satellite lost in space
Recently, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency has launched a satellite called “Hitomi” which was designed to study black holes and some other mysteries. But since Saturday March 26th, communication between the Japanese space agency and the Hitomi has failed. Some astronomers suspect the satellite might have suffered an “energetic event” as a gas leak or a battery explosion, changing its position in space, due to that its antenna is probably pointing somewhere else instead of the expected direction.
The problem is that the satellite may not be able to draw solar energy and if it runs out of energy before communication is reestablished, Japan will have lost a satellite in space.
Legendary Dutch striker and coach Johan Cruyff dies at age 68
Last March 24, former Dutch international player and coach Hendrick Johannes Cruyff, or Johan Cruyff, passed away in Barcelona, Spain, after weeks battling against a lung cancer.
Cruyff is the most expressive Dutch in soccer history, due to his contributions not only as a player, being a protagonist of the change in Netherlands’ world soccer status - leading Ajax to win three European Cups in a row - and also playing a foundation role in the Total Football dogma that shaped the tactics that today are trending, which enchanted the world in the 1974 World Cup. As a coach, he commanded one of the best Barcelona squads ever, starting a supremacy with the then called Dream Team in the nineties. He won 35 titles and many individual prizes.
He also helped to implement many of the current concepts that influence the tactical thinking and player disposition on the field in Barcelona, all over Netherlands and in many reputed coaches around the globe, such as Josep Guardiola and Jorge Sampaoli
