* Starfish ( A mix of starfish-and goldfish-shaped crackers )

Although these weapons were much smaller ( 300 kiloton or 1. 3 PJ ) than the Starfish Prime test, since those tests were done over a populated large land mass ( and also at a location where the Earth's magnetic field was greater ), the damage caused by the resulting EMP was reportedly much greater than in the Starfish Prime nuclear test.

Starfish are characterised by having saponins in their tissues and these are known as ' asterosaponins '.

Newer calculations showed that if the Starfish Prime warhead had been detonated over the northern continental United States, the magnitude of the EMP would have been much larger ( 22 to 30 kilovolts / metre ) because of the greater strength of the Earth's magnetic field over the United States, as well as the different orientation of the Earth's magnetic field at high latitudes.

Starfish have tube feet operated by a hydraulic system and a mouth at the centre of the oral or lower surface.

Starfish, such as the ochre sea star ( Pisaster ochraceus ) have become widely known as an example of the keystone species concept in ecology.

Starfish have rather complex nervous systems, with a distributed brain.

Starfish of the order Paxillosida ( Astropecten and Asterina ) have no brachiolaria stage, with the bipinnaria developing directly into an adult.

The Austin family books have three major crossover characters in common with the O ' Keefe books, two of whom are introduced in The Arm of the Starfish.

In July 1962, a 1. 44 megaton ( 6. 0 PJ ) United States nuclear test in space, above the mid-Pacific Ocean, called the Starfish Prime test, demonstrated to nuclear scientists that the magnitude and effects of a high altitude nuclear explosion were much larger than had been previously calculated.

The album title is intended to sound like a fictional band ; the phrase " Chocolate Starfish " referred to Durst himself, as he had frequently been called an asshole.

* The song has been covered by Chocolate Starfish, The Mountain Goats, David Axelrod, John Barrowman, Liza Minnelli, Jack Klugman and Tony Randall ( as " The Odd Couple "), Chimira, Venice, Jann Arden, Janet Jackson ( who sampled the song in " Son of a Gun ( I Betcha Think This Song Is About You )", with Simon providing featured vocals, Anna Waronker, Faster Pussycat, Romantic Guitar, Dres, Daryll-Ann, Smokie, Foo Fighters, Sally Seltmann, Asaro and Wolcott, Matthew Sweet & Susanna Hoffs and Marilyn Manson ( featuring Johnny Depp ).

No ship of the United States Navy has ever been named USS Starfish.

Having been betrayed by Kali Cutter in The Arm of the Starfish, Adam tries to keep his emotional distance from Vicky while enlisting her in his dolphin communication project.

This means that although a 10 kiloton weapon has only 0. 7 % of the total energy release of the 1. 44-megaton Starfish Prime test, the EMP will be at least 8 % as powerful.

Since the E1 component of nuclear EMP depends on the prompt gamma ray output, which was only 0. 1 % of yield in Starfish Prime but can be 0. 5 % of yield in pure fission weapons of low yield, a 10 kiloton bomb can easily be 5 x 8 % = 40 % as powerful as the 1. 44 megaton Starfish Prime at producing EMP.

Starfish Prime, a high altitude nuclear test, created an artificial radiation belt that damaged or destroyed as many as one third of the satellites in low earth orbit at the time.

Starfish Youth Music is based at Priory School and the young bands who take part regularly perform in local venues such as the Paddock and the All Saints ' Centre.

MTV aired a special in late 2000 where Limp Bizkit threw an album release party at the mansion to coincide with the release of their album Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water.

After Pseudo Echo disbanded in 1990, Canham moved into record production including Chocolate Starfish's 1994 debut album, Chocolate Starfish, which peaked at No. 2 on the ARIA Albums Chart.

Despite its low budget it won the 1996 Golden Starfish award and did well at the Sundance Film Festival.

She realized an early ambition, at age 19, when she launched her own fashion collection-“ Pinky Starfish .” Known for its dresses made from French vintage fabrics, the range was sold in Tracey Ross, Lisa Kline and Barney ’ s.

* Starfish Type: Mentioned at the end of episode 23 and appears at the very beginning of episode 24.

The Arm of the Starfish is Poly's first appearance, as such, but Meg Murry O ' Keefe was pregnant with her at the time of A Swiftly Tilting Planet.

On July 9, 1962, at 09: 00: 09 Coordinated Universal Time, ( which was July 8, Honolulu time, at nine seconds after 11 p. m .), the Starfish Prime test was successfully detonated at an altitude of.

Pages 19 – 21 of " A ' Quick Look ' at the Technical Results of Starfish Prime ", August 1962 states:

* Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water is the third album by the Nu metal band Limp Bizkit, released on October 15, 2000 through Interscope Records.

; Starfish / Sea stars: There are many starfish which are not reef safe like crown-of-thorns starfish and chocolate chip sea star.

* The Magical Wishing Starfish ( voiced by Tony Jay ) – A giant starfish with a beard and crown who only appears in the episode " Wish Upon A Starfish ".

* Human Starfish – A humanoid starfish with superhuman strength.

* 1962 – The Starfish Prime high-altitude nuclear test is conducted by the United States.

Hauer is a dedicated environmentalist and has founded an AIDS awareness organization, the Rutger Hauer Starfish Association.

Hauer has also established an AIDS awareness organization called the Rutger Hauer Starfish Association.

Proceeds of the book go to Hauer's Starfish Association.

Starfish Prime also made those effects known to the public by causing electrical damage in Hawaii, about away from the detonation point, knocking out about 300 streetlights, setting off numerous burglar alarms and damaging a telephone company microwave link.

Starfish Prime was the first successful test in the series of United States high-altitude nuclear tests in 1962 known as Operation Fishbowl.

The EMP damage of the Starfish Prime test was quickly repaired because of the ruggedness ( compared to today ) of the electrical and electronic infrastructure of Hawaii in 1962.

The relatively small magnitude of the Starfish Prime EMP in Hawaii ( about 5600 volts / metre ) and the relatively small amount of damage done ( for example, only 1 to 3 percent of streetlights extinguished ) led some scientists to believe, in the early days of EMP research, that the problem might not be as significant as was later realized.

The 1. 4 Mt total yield 1962 Starfish Prime test had a gamma output of 0. 1 %, hence 1. 4 kt of prompt gamma rays.

In the Starfish Prime nuclear test, most satellite damage was due to damage to the solar panels from satellites passing through radiation belts created by the high altitude nuclear explosion.
