Iridium Pillows

A pivotal Iridium design. Iridium is a chemical element with symbol Ir and atomic number 77. A very hard, brittle, silvery-white transition metal of the platinum group, iridium is generally credited with being the second densest element (after osmium). It is also the most corrosion-resistant metal, even at temperatures as high as 2000 C. Although only certain molten salts and halogens are corrosive to solid iridium, finely divided iridium dust is much more reactive and can be flammable. Brought to you by Periodic-Tees.com

Ir is the periodic table element symbol for the transition metal iridium.

This is a view of the SpaceX launch of 10 Iridium satellites on December 22, 2017, as seen from Arcadia, CA. The squiggle on the right is the pattern left by the Falcon 9 first stage cold gas attitude control thrusters, as it tumbled back toward earth. On the left, the second stage speeds on to deliver the satellites to their 485 mile high orbit.

In this view of the SpaceX launch of Iridium Flight 4 on December 22, 2017, two puffs of gas can be seen, having exited the 1st stage cold gas attitude control thrusters, as the 1st stage tumbled back toward earth.

This is a shot of a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket, shortly after the separation of the first and second stages, as the rocket appears to pass by Altair. The first stage, lit up like a sun dog, falls back to earth, through the cloud of kerosene and liquid oxygen in this view.

From 1889 to 2018, iridium was used with platinum to define the international standard kilogram. Iridium was derived from "Iris," Greek goddess of the rainbow, for its colored salts.

This is a 4 minute exposure of the Falcon9/Iridium7 launch from Vandenberg AFB CA, 25 July 2017. The Falcon 9 booster delivered 10 IridiumNext satellites to their intended orbit.
