Unlike Cybertron however, the moons do not appear to have any detectable atmosphere, as Daniel Witwicky, a longtime ally of the Autobots, was required to wear a mechanical ' exo suit ' that presumably included its own air supply and means to keep organic life forms pressurized against the vacuum of space, something that is not required by humans on Cybetron.

Unlike Blackarachnia and Waspinator, Sari was not actually a Transformer to begin with was and started off more organic at first, both in biology ( possessing normal human biological functions ) and in outward appearance.

Unlike fullerene, sumanene has benzyl positions which are available for organic reactions.

Unlike Peter, she can shoot organic webbing from her fingertips.

Unlike membrane filters at this pore size, where particles as wide as the largest opening or distance between fibres cannot pass in between them at all, HEPA filters are designed to target much smaller pollutants and particles.

Unlike phytoextraction, phytostabilization focuses mainly on sequestering pollutants in soil near the roots but not in plant tissues.

Unlike the situation in France, the goal was support of industrialisation, and so heavy lines crisscrossed the Ruhr and other industrial districts, and provided good connections to the major ports of Hamburg and Bremen.

Unlike the APC ( which was intended merely to transport the infantry from place to place under armor ), the IFV possessed heavy firepower which could support the infantry in attack or defense.

Unlike the heavy plough, the Rotherham ( or Rotherham swing ) plough consisted entirely of the coulter, mouldboard and handles.

Unlike previous detectors, using heavy water would make the detector sensitive to two reactions, one sensitive to all neutrino flavours, which would allow a detector to measure neutrino oscillations directly.

Unlike iron ore mining with the Edison Ore-Milling Company, the heavy investment Edison made over ten years was repaid handsomely, and the storage battery eventually became Edison's most profitable product.

Unlike Athenian women who wore heavy, concealing clothes and were rarely seen outside the house, Spartan women wore dresses ( peplos ) slit up the side to allow freer movement and moved freely about the city, either walking or driving chariots.

Unlike more easterly parts of Pakistan, Quetta does not have a monsoon season of heavy rainfall.

Unlike Space Marines or Necron, who boast heavy armor, high toughness and some form of wound-resistance ; the Eldar do not.

Unlike earlier floods in the Wyoming Valley, most of which were caused by spring freshets, the 1972 flood was caused by bizarre and unusual weather patterns, including heavy rainfall that began in mid-April.

Unlike in previous years, with the advancement in troop transportation, re-locating heavy weaponry and large quantities of ammunition is less of a problem.

Unlike the Middle Eastern civilizations, India had developed very productive forms of agriculture, requiring heavy labor.

Unlike the lower elevations in the surrounding regions, heavy snows often fall from December to March, with accumulating in the Great Blizzard of 1993.

Unlike their lighter counterparts, the Polish hussars were used as a heavy cavalry for line-breaking charges against enemy infantry.

Unlike most hardcore bands, Boston's scene included heavy metal fans.

Unlike the Hs 293, which was deployed against merchant ships and light escorting warships, Fritz X was intended to be used against armoured ships such as heavy cruisers and battleships.

Unlike previous crises, Colebatch was not seen to have handled the crisis well, and he sustained heavy criticism during and after it.

Unlike progressive rock, heavy metal ( already a minority sub-culture ) was able to survive the rise of punk and electronic music intact.

Unlike the Langstroth stacked box hive, there is no heavy lifting involved ( unless the entire hive is to be relocated ).

Unlike the Space Shuttle orbiter, which had to be lifted and assembled together with several other heavy components ( a large external tank, plus two solid rocket boosters ), VentureStar was to be simply inspected in a hangar like an airplane.

Unlike usual heavy metal bassists, Webster is able to play his instrument without the use of a pick, while still retaining a clean clear tone, which helps maintain clarity in the complex and very fast lines he plays in conjunction with the heavily distorted guitars of Cannibal Corpse.

Unlike the heavy pinned barrels, which could only contain a few tunes of fixed length, that had been used on earlier instruments, book music enabled large repertoires to be built up.

Unlike Bolos, which were designed to be capable of solo operations, Melconian heavy mechanized units were focused on a single role.

Unlike the Sands of Time, where rounds of heavy combat are interspersed with rounds of exploration, enemies can be encountered anywhere along the way, alone and in packs ; some common enemies would respawn as the player revisits locations.

Unlike pure metals, most alloys do not have a single melting point, but a melting range in which the material is a mixture of solid and liquid phases.

Unlike precious metals such as gold or platinum, gem diamonds do not trade as a commodity: there is a substantial mark-up in the sale of diamonds, and there is not a very active market for resale of diamonds.

Unlike other metals, cadmium is resistant to corrosion and as a result it is used as a protective layer when deposited on other metals.

Unlike many other metals which form passivating oxide layers, iron oxides occupy more volume than iron metal, and thus iron oxides flake off and expose fresh surfaces for corrosion.

Unlike with differential hardening, there is no distinct boundary between the harder and softer metals, but the change form hard to soft is very gradual, forming a continuum, or " grade " ( gradient ), of hardness.

Unlike cymbals, some gongs are made from several different metals fused together.

Unlike other rare-earth metals, which show antiferromagnetic or / and ferromagnetic ordering at low temperatures, Pr is paramagnetic at any temperature above 1 K.

Unlike ferrous metals — which must be cooled slowly to anneal — copper can be cooled slowly in air or quickly by quenching in water.

Unlike other liquid metals used in this application, such as lithium and mercury, the nonreactivity makes Galinstan a safer material to use.

Unlike the other metals used for this process ( Co, Ni, Ru ), which remain in the metallic state during synthesis, iron catalysts tend to form a number of phases, including various oxides and carbides during the reaction.

Unlike oxy-fuel cutting, the PAC process can be applied to cutting metals which form refractory oxides such as stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum, and other non-ferrous alloys.

Unlike most other types of backsaws, razor saws are also frequently used to cut plastics and soft metals.

Unlike crystalline metals, there is no obvious melting point at which viscosity drops suddenly.

Unlike the metals which have a continuum of electronic states, semiconductors possess a void energy region where no energy levels are available to promote recombination of an electron and hole produced by photoactivation in the solid.

Unlike silver, gold is denser than almost all other metals, hence whether something is made of gold is extremely hard to fake.
