March 14th...giornata della matematica, Pi Greco day. Perchè non utilizzare le cifre di π per costruire una spirale, la spirale di Archimede, da appendere in classe o nel corridoio? Se appesa sopra un termosifone o un'altra fonte di calore, diventa una divertente attività ed esperimento con cui scoprire alcune caratteristiche dell'aria: la spirale ruota e si muove perchè spostata dall'aria calda. L’aria calda è più leggera dell’aria fredda perché meno densa e sale verso l’alto. https://maestramonica.it/pi-greco-day-la-spirale-di-archimede-matematica/

2023 RORC Caribbean 600 & RORC Caribbean 600 Series. The RORC Caribbean 600 is a totally unique annual race and will celebrate its 14th year in 2023. The race is organized by the Royal Ocean Racing Club (RORC), a London and Cowes based club with a worldwide reputation for the management of offshore races. Since its inception in 2009 the RORC Caribbean 600 has earned recognition as one of the world’s classic offshore races and is a firm fixture on the international racing calendar and on the bucket list of any serious offshore sailor. Starting and finishing in Antigua, the unique 600-mile course uses 11 Eastern Caribbean islands as turning marks, providing an interesting challenge for both navigators and crew. With such a long racing course, the finishing times can vary by days. The RORC work with Falmouth-based Antigua Yacht Club and their army of local volunteers, supporting the management of this great event. Every yacht to finish the race is met with a welcoming cold beer – much appreciated after the 600 nautical mile challenge! For the first time in 2023 RORC introduces the RORC Caribbean Series aimed at providing a mix of competitive inshore and coastal racing before embarking on the challenges of the classic 600 mile offshore race. The series is expected to consist of: • Two days of inshore and short coastal races on Tuesday 14 and Wednesday 15 February 2023 • Layday on Thursday 16th February • The popular 360 Round Antigua Race on Friday 17 February • With prizegiving for the series joining the traditional opening party on Saturday 18 February • RORC Caribbean 600 starting Monday 20th February #Caribbean600 #RORCracing
