 Such measurements have become increasingly important for providing information on the initial conditions from which the large-scale structure of the Universe has evolved. The detailed measurement phase promises quantitative answers to some of the fundamental questions of structure evolution in our Universe: How did matter first distribute itself to eventually form the bubbles, voids and galaxy clusters that we observe? What is the amplitude of the quantum fluctuations which existed before the Universe entered the `inflationary' epoch, approximately 10-35 seconds after the Big Bang? Is the bulk of the matter in the Universe composed of a new kind of non-baryonic, nonluminous matter, as proposed by Cold Dark Matter theories? These questions have guided us to formulate the following program of current and planned experiments."\\ Such measurements have become increasingly important for providing information on the initial conditions from which the large-scale structure of the Universe has evolved.

-British inventiveness stimulated an inflatable wing aircraft, produced by ML Aviation Ltd in the mid-1950s as the Utility. Twelve wings were tested and three aircraft were built (XK776, XK781 and XK784). Conceived at the Research and Development Establishment, RAF Cardington in 1953, its true potential was realised on the other side of the Atlantic.
