The name "Quiet" associated with the name of F. Magellan, performed a world tour and passing through the Pacific ocean under favorable weather conditions. This ocean is really great: it takes up 1/3 of the surface of the planet and almost 1/2 of the World's oceans. The ocean has an oval shape, it is especially wide at the equator. The peoples inhabiting the Pacific coast and the Islands, have long been sailing on the ocean, explore its riches. Information about the ocean have been accumulated as a result of the voyages of Magellan, F., J. Cook. The beginning of a wide study was initiated in the XIX century the first Russian circumnavigation expedition of I. F. Kruzenshtern. Currently, there is a special international organization for the study of the Pacific ocean. In recent years new data on its nature, defined depth, study of currents, bottom topography, biological resources of the ocean. The southern part of the ocean from the coast of the Islands of the Tuamotus to the coast of South America is an area of calm, light winds and stable atmosphere. It is for this peace and quiet, Magellan and his companions called the Pacific ocean. But to the West of the Islands of Tuamotus, the picture changes dramatically. Calm weather is rare here, usually blow stormy winds, often developing into hurricanes. This so-called squalls South Australia, especially fierce in December. Less frequent but more intense tropical cyclones. They arrive in early fall from the Coral sea, near the Northern tip of New Zealand they move to the warm West winds. Так?

The national flag of the United States of America, often simply referred to as the American flag, consists of thirteen equal horizontal stripes of red (top and bottom) alternating with white, with a blue rectangle in the canton (referred to specifically as the "union") bearing fifty small, white, five-pointed stars arranged in nine offset horizontal rows of six stars (top and bottom) alternating with rows of five stars. The 50 stars on the flag represent the 50 states of the United States of America and the 13 stripes represent the thirteen British colonies that declared independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain and became the first states in the Union. Nicknames for the flag include the "Stars and Stripes", "Old Glory", and "The Star-Spangled Banner".The man credited with designing the current 50 star American flag is Robert G. Heft. He earned his place in history in 1958 while living with his grandparents in Ohio.
