La Tour laboratoire scientifique

Mardi 3 décembre 2019

Modifié le : 03/12/19

La Tour à peine inaugurée en 1889, Gustave Eiffel pensait déjà à démontrer son utilité. Il avait en effet obtenu une concession de 20 ans de la Ville de Paris pour la disposition du terrain sur lequel elle s ‘élevait. Au-delà de 1909, son avenir restait incertain, dépendant du bon vouloir du Conseil de Paris. Par ailleurs, Eiffel se passionnait pour les progrès scientifiques de son époque. Il avait fait inscrire sur tout le pourtour du premier étage les noms de 72 hommes de science afin de leur rendre hommage et de placer sa Tour sous leur protection symbolique.

Expériences en altitude !

Grâce à sa hauteur, la Tour pouvait d’emblée se prêter à des expériences particulières. Un grand pendule de Foucault fut ainsi fixé sous le second étage. Les oscillations amplifiées par sa longueur pouvaient ainsi mettre en évidence les forces gouvernant la rotation de la terre. Un manomètre à mercure à l’air libre de 300 mètres hauteur permit de mesurer avec précision les hautes pressions et ainsi d’étalonner les manomètres métalliques ou à gaz utilisés dans l’industrie. Des expériences de physiologie furent aussi tentées pour tirer parti de l’altitude, mais sans vraiment convaincre. L’une des premières initiatives d’Eiffel fut aussi d’installer, avec le physicien Éleuthère Mascart, une station météo au sommet la Tour, comme il l’avait fait dans ses différentes propriétés. Les résultats des mesures quotidiennes de température, de pression, d’hygrométrie, de précipitations, de vitesse du vent furent publiés à mesure par Gustave Eiffel à ses frais, contribuant ainsi aux progrès de la météo balbutiante, en montrant l’intérêt de collecter systématiquement des données sur de longues périodes de temps.

Les effets du vent et la résistance à l’air

Eiffel avait eu du fil à retordre avec le vent lors de sa carrière de constructeur. Le viaduc de la Tardes avait été précipité dans le vide lors de sa construction en 1884 sous l’effet d’un ouragan. Bien que la structure ajourée de l’ouvrage semble laisser peu de prise au vent, celui-ci pouvait s’avérer dévastateur. Pour mieux analyser les effets du vent sur les structures, Eiffel fit d’abord faire des mesures pour évaluer directement la pression exercée par le vent en fonction de sa vitesse. Puis il fit installer de 1903 à 1905 un câble vertical tendu entre le deuxième étage et le sol le long duquel on pouvait laisser tomber des corps de formes et de tailles diverses. Un astucieux système de mesure fixé aux corps eux-mêmes permettait d’évaluer la résistance offerte par l’air aux corps en chute libre. 

Plus tard, en 1909, Eiffel fit construire au pied même de la Tour un laboratoire aérodynamique qui permettait de souffler de l’air autour de formes fixes au lieu de faire tomber celles-ci, facilitant ainsi notablement les mesures et la possibilité de faire varier la vitesse du vent. La tour et son laboratoire participèrent ainsi à l’essor de l’aérostation puis de l’aviation naissante. Cette soufflerie fut transférée en 1912 dans un bâtiment fixe dans le 16ème arrondissement voisin, rue Boileau, où elle est toujours en activité. 

Une antenne géante

Mais c’est bien la radio qui fit de la tour un laboratoire incontournable. Après l’invention à la fin du 19ème siècle de la transmission à distance sans fil de signaux, l’autorité militaire s’intéressait de près à ces technologies. La Tour offrait un site de choix pour les expérimenter. Car plus une antenne est haute, plus elle peut transmettre de messages à longue distance et sur une large zone. Un câble d’antenne fut tendu entre le sommet et le Champ de Mars. En 1898, Eugène Ducretet pouvait communiquer avec le Panthéon, distant de 4 kilomètres. Eiffel offrit alors en 1903 de mettre la tour à la disposition de l’Armée et même de financer en partie les installations nécessaires. Puis, en 1904 c’était avec les forts de l’Est et même avec la base navale de Bizerte en Algérie que l’on pouvait communiquer. Dès lors, la Tour était pourvue d’un intérêt stratégique militaire. Eiffel obtint ainsi une prolongation de la concession du terrain pour 70 années supplémentaires, ce qui assurait définitivement la pérennité de sa Tour. Depuis, la question ne se pose plus !

La vie de laboratoire La production des faits scientifiques

Bruno latour , steve woolgar.

Comment travaillent les scientifiques ? Comment parviennent-ils à produire des découvertes ? Pour répondre à ces questions, le sociologue Bruno Latour a partagé durant deux ans le quotidien des chercheurs du laboratoire de neuroendocrinologie du professeur Roger Guillemin, à l'Institut Salk de San Diego (Californie). Avec la méticulosité et la patience de l'anthropologue, il a suivi les tâtonnements de cette équipe dans une recherche dont le résultat vaudra le prix Nobel de médecine à Guillemin, en 1978. Cette enquête exceptionnelle, publiée pour la première fois en 1979 et désormais classique, a véritablement lancé le domaine des nouvelles études sur la science, et profondément renouvelé la philosophie des faits scientifiques. Soucieux de rompre avec les " visions exotiques ", voire magiques, de la science et de ses méthodes, Bruno Latour et son coauteur Steve Woolgar ont choisi la voie rigoureuse d'une analyse enfin réaliste de sa production : elle les conduit à rendre compte des actions et des hésitations des chercheurs, dans un ouvrage qui se lit comme une enquête policière.

C’est un chercheur curieux et savant qui vient de s’éteindre, mais surtout un esprit profondément contemporain. Comme peu d’autres philosophes, Bruno Latour, décédé le 9 octobre à 75 ans, avait pris la mesure des temps présents. Depuis l’aube des années 2000, il s’efforçait de penser les conséquences de la crise écologique dans notre manière de nous comprendre, invitant à une véritable métamorphose des savoirs.

Avec une vraie liberté, Bruno Latour menait ce travail au carrefour de la philosophie, de la sociologie, de l’anthropologie, des sciences, mais aussi de l’esthétique et de la théologie, ayant compris que seul le dialogue des disciplines permettait d’avancer.

Lecture critique de la modernité

Né en 1947, agrégé en philosophie, il avait réalisé ses premières recherches en anthropologie dans un laboratoire à Abidjan (Côte d’Ivoire) sur l’ivoirisation des cadres au sein des usines locales, tout en travaillant à une thèse en exégèse biblique sur les récits de la résurrection. Rapidement, son travail s’était orienté vers la sociologie des sciences, pour s’intéresser à la vie de laboratoire et à la construction du discours scientifique.

En sociologue autant qu’en philosophe, il avait détourné le regard de la « science faite » vers la science « en train de se faire », croisant les questions de l’objectivité et de la vérité. Ce premier chantier fut le soubassement de sa lecture critique de la modernité, dont il cherchait depuis à éclairer les angles morts.

Cette approche pluridisciplinaire devait lui être précieuse pour penser l’Anthropocène, cette nouvelle ère géologique liée aux transformations massives et négatives de l’homme sur le vivant. Au lieu de procéder à un simple « greenwashing » de la pensée, il avait remis progressivement sur l’établi toutes les notions classiques de la philosophie : la nature et la culture, la matière et l’esprit, le particulier et l’universel, le progrès et la tradition… Professeur à Sciences Po depuis 2006, il s’était particulièrement saisi de la question politique, levier indispensable pour mettre en œuvre le sauvetage de notre monde commun.

Un homme de conversations

Bruno Latour avait conscience de l’ampleur de la tâche et de son urgence. Homme avenant et malicieux, esprit créatif, il tentait d’atténuer le légitime vertige provoqué par la crise climatique en mettant en œuvre un travail collectif associant volontiers artistes et jeunes chercheurs. « Quand mon père et mon grand-père sont morts, ils savaient que leurs enfants vivraient à peu près dans le même monde qu’eux. Mais moi, entre ma naissance et ma mort, le monde s’est immensément transformé. Cette nouveauté, profondément angoissante, rend fou. Ma solution à moi a été de disperser mes angoisses sur d’autres personnes, à travers mes conférences, mes livres, le théâtre » , confiait-il à La Croix en 2020.

Au fil des décennies, ses livres avaient rejoint un large public, grâce à un style peu académique et une écriture enlevée. Ses essais soulevaient souvent plus de questions qu’ils n’apportaient de réponses. Ils n’élucidaient pas toujours les fulgurances qui les traversaient, mais se révélaient toujours inspirants.

Penser avec Gaïa

Bruno Latour avait pris la mesure, avant beaucoup d’autres penseurs, de l’intime solidarité de l’homme avec le monde naturel et du péril de la destruction de notre « environnement », qui justement à ses yeux n’en était pas un. « Cette idée d’environnement n’a guère de sens puisque vous ne pouvez jamais dessiner la limite qui distinguerait un organisme de ce qui l’entoure. Au sens propre, rien ne nous environne, tout conspire à notre respiration » , faisait-il remarquer.

Ami de la poésie et de la littérature, Bruno Latour avait alors exhumé une figure mythologique grecque, Gaïa, déesse de la Terre, pour dire la solidarité des humains avec tous les vivants, « qui ont un air de famille parce qu’ils ont une origine commune et qu’ils se sont étendus, répandus, mélangés, superposés, un peu partout, en transformant de fond en comble, en ravaudant incessamment leurs conditions initiales par leurs inventions successives » . Si le terme pouvait au premier abord surprendre, ou même susciter la méfiance, il avait l’efficacité de faire « atterrir » – comme il aimait le dire – l’humanité et de rendre impossible son maintien hors-sol. L’humanité vit non « sur » terre, mais « avec » Terre ou Gaïa.

Pour Bruno Latour, il était insensé de continuer à être « des humains à l’ancienne » , c’est-à-dire modernes, prétendument autonomes. « L’individu dans le monde moderne, c’est toujours un hapax littéraire, un cogito de théâtre, on le sait depuis Descartes. Et donc chaque fois qu’un individu qui se présente comme tel et revendique un droit de propriété exclusive sur quelque bien, cela devrait nous faire rire » . Il critiquait le comportement des « excavateurs » , ces individus prédateurs du vivant, qu’il opposait aux « terrestres » , conscients de leur lien de solidarité avec Gaïa. Il appelait de ses vœux la constitution d’une nouvelle « classe écologique », capable de redessiner la carte des conflits politiques.

Retour à l’essentiel

Dernièrement, l’expérience du confinement lui était apparue comme un moment de confirmation de la nécessaire bifurcation de nos sociétés. Avec la crise sanitaire, l’économie, « prise jusqu’ici pour le soubassement indiscutable de l’existence » , était « remontée vers le haut, à la manière d’une poutre de bois », décrivait-il de manière imagée dans Où Suis-je. leçons de confinement à l’égard des terrestres. « Sans coup férir, la célébrissime”infrastructure” de la vie moderne est apparue superficielle » , constatait-il. Avait alors pu apparaître l’essentiel que sont « les soucis d’engendrement et les questions de subsistance » .

Inspiré par la foi chrétienne, Bruno Latour voyait dans l’incarnation une autre raison de regarder vers « l’ici-bas » . Pour cela, il critiquait fermement la tentation spiritualiste qui s’était, selon lui, emparée du catholicisme depuis le XVII e siècle dans sa tentative de réponse à l’athéisme. Il voyait dans cette évasion des chrétiens hors du monde un contresens au regard de l’Évangile. « Quel sens (les croyants) pourraient-ils donner à l’incarnation d’un Dieu fait homme, s’il fallait s’échapper hors du monde ? » , avertissait-il. Il avait reçu l’encyclique du pape François Laudato si’ comme une excellente nouvelle, considérant ce texte comme « le lieu essentiel de la reprise de la prédication catholique » .

Sans se prétendre théologien, le philosophe invitait la foi chrétienne à une intime métamorphose. « La transcendance est devenue mensongère, pour ne pas dire diabolique, et c’est l’immanence, méprisée par des siècles de ’’spiritualité’’, qui devient désirable, morale et civique, confiait-il encore à La Croix . Pour moi, il est temps de se débarrasser de la question de la croyance et d’en poser une autre : c’est quoi l’incarnation ? Où est-ce que vous vous incarnez et avec qui ? Là-dessus, le christianisme a des choses à dire. »

Note de lecture, Bruno Latour : La vie de laboratoire

Related Papers

Sune Frølund

Arnaud Fossier

Bruno Latour s'est d’abord fait connaître en 1979, avec La vie de laboratoire, observation ethnographique d’un laboratoire californien d’endocrinologie. En 1987, il publie La science en action, qui revient sur l’importance fondamentale des techniques, mais aussi des « controverses », dans l’élaboration des « faits » scientifiques. En 1992, il reçoit le prix Roberval pour son livre Aramis ou l’amour des techniques. Dans ses Petites leçons de sociologie des sciences, il explicite son « relativisme » (1996). L’espoir de Pandore (2001) dresse un bilan provisoire des « science studies ». Il faudrait également citer son travail sur Pasteur (Les Microbes, Guerre et paix, 1984), Nous n’avons jamais été modernes. Essai d’anthropologie symétrique (1991), ou encore Politiques de la nature. Comment faire entrer les sciences en démocratie (1999). Récemment est paru La fabrique du droit. Une ethnographie du Conseil d’État (2002). B. Latour tente, qui plus est, de diversifier les vecteurs d’expression de son propos anthropologique, avec notamment l’organisation de deux expositions : Iconoclash (2004), et Making things public. Atmospheres of democracy (2005). Elles ont toutes deux donné lieu à des publications importantes.

The Fortune-Teller

Georges de La Tour French

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 622

Darting eyes and busy hands create a captivating narrative between otherwise staid figures, each of which is richly clothed in meticulously painted combinations of color and texture. La Tour took on a theme popularized in Northern Europe by prints and in Rome by Caravaggio: an old Roma (formerly identified with the derisive term "Gypsy") woman reads the young man’s fortune as her beautiful companions take the opportunity to rob him. This celebrated painting, which was only discovered in the mid-twentieth century, is inscribed with the name of the town where the artist lived in northeastern France, supporting the possibility that he developed such works independent of Caravaggio’s precedent.

Our Specialisation

General or routine chemistry – commonly ordered blood chemistries (e.g., liver and kidney function tests).

It involves treating diseases that affect the production of blood and its components, such as blood cells, hemoglobin, blood proteins,

Infectious diseases caused by microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and fungi, and also parasitic organisms, such as helminth worms.

Microbiology is the study of microscopic organisms, such as bacteria, viruses, archaea, fungi and protozoa.

Serology is a blood test to detect the presence of antibodies against a microorganism. Certain microorganisms stimulate the body to produce antibodies during an active infection.

In cytology, we go only for cellular level, but in histology, we mainly examine the tissue architecture of a particular tissue.

The endocrine system consists of several glands, all in different parts of the body, that secrete hormones directly into the blood rather than into a duct system. Hormones have many different functions and modes of action; one hormone may have several effects on different target organs, and, conversely, one target organ may be affected by more than one hormone.

When it is poorly taken up by the cells, glucose accumulates in the blood. An overly high blood sugar level, characteristic of diabetes, is detrimental to the functioning of various organs and blood vessels, the diameter of which shrinks with the formation of fatty deposits inside the arterial walls. While type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease, type 2 diabetes is known as adult-onset, in other words, it sets in progressively over time. At the start of the disease, the pancreas will adapt by producing more insulin and diabetes may go unnoticed for years. Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes (95% of cases). Lastly, there is a form of diabetes specific to pregnant women; it is called  gestational diabetes* Gestational diabetes occurs only during pregnancy and is characterized by a high blood sugar level. It appears in the third trimester of pregnancy and often disappears after giving birth. , which appears in the third trimester of pregnancy and often disappears after giving birth.

Symptoms of Diabetes

When they appear, the main symptoms of diabetes are:

• physical tiredness,
• an intense thirst due to a frequent need to urinate,
• difficulty concentrating with a reduction in performance,
• vision issues and in particular blurred vision,
• weight loss (without a feeling of hunger),
• an increased risk of infections.

The symptoms are the same for the different types of the disease, but as the onset of type 2 diabetes is delayed and gradual, diagnosis often takes a while. In the case of gestation diabetes, the clinical picture is often much less obvious, and it is symptoms such as more urine infections than normal and raised blood pressure that point to diabetes.

Causes of Diabetes

While type 1 diabetes is related to a lack of insulin due to the cells that produce it, type 2 diabetes is caused by the body being resistant to the action of insulin leading to issues absorbing sugar and increased sugar levels in the blood. Family history, age, and above all lifestyle (an unbalanced diet, eating too much which leads to significant weight gain, and insufficient exercise) are clearly linked to an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

Environmental factors (for example toxic chemicals) can also contribute to certain rarer forms of diabetes. In the case of gestation diabetes, age, being overweight, and a genetic component can all contribute.  

Risk Factors

There is a clear link between eating a diet that is too calorific and high in sugar, being overweight, and not doing enough exercise and the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Four out of every five patients with type II diabetes are estimated to be overweight. Heredity can also play a role however (presence of a family history of diabetes), which means that a healthy lifestyle is not an absolute guarantee of protection.

Diagnosing Diabetes

Tests to detect high fasting blood glucose levels and an abnormal level of  glycated hemoglobin* *Glycated hemoglobin is the glycated form of the hemoglobin molecule. A glycated hemoglobin test measures the concentration of glucose in the blood, glycaemia, over several months. are the most commonly used to diagnose diabetes.

Treating Diabetes

Everyone with diabetes should receive long-term medical support and nutritional advice to work out the diet that is best suited to their condition.

However, it is not always enough to correct an unhealthy lifestyle by trying to eat more fruit and vegetables, move more, and lose weight to slow the progression of the disease and reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications. When these measures are not enough to obtain a good glycemic balance in cases of type 2 diabetes, antidiabetic medication should be prescribed. Some people require insulin injections (in the form of a pen or pump).

In cases of type 1 diabetes, which is currently incurable, regular insulin injections must be administered for life (using a pen or pump). Insulin cannot be taken in tablet form, as it would be destroyed by the digestive enzymes.

Most cases of gestational diabetes can be controlled through dietary measures.

Progression and Possible Complications

In the long term, untreated diabetes can damage the blood vessels, including large vessels like the aorta or small capillaries that all our organs require to function. This can lead to cardiovascular, eye, kidney, and nervous system disorders. Vascular conditions can cause organ disorders and patients can suffer, for example, from loss of vision,  kidney failure* A disease characterized by a reduction in kidney function that leads to a buildup of urea and creatinine in the blood. , foot ulcers* A foot ulcer can occur after an injury that is not treated immediately and/or that doesn’t heal well. As diabetics often suffer from a loss of sensitivity in their extremities, these injuries might not be detected straightaway and can lead to significant complications, or even amputation. that can lead to amputation, ( strokes* Strokes occur when the blood supply to the brain is interrupted. They can be caused by an obstruction in the blood vessel supplying blood to the brain or by such a vessel rupturing. , and other cardiovascular problems ( heart attack* A heart attack occurs when there is a partial or complete obstruction of a coronary artery. The part of the heart connected to this artery stops receiving oxygen, and so can necrotize and die. Heart attacks are also known as myocardial infarctions. ).

When hyperglycemia is combined with being overweight, elevated blood lipid levels, and high blood pressure, this is referred to as a metabolic syndrome. This again increases the risk of complications related to diabetes.

Gestation diabetes potentially puts the health of the mother and child at risk if not treated.  

Preventing Diabetes

Many patients are able to keep their diabetes under control once they have made certain lifestyle changes and started suitable medical treatment. Doing an appropriate form of exercise helps to regulate the metabolism of glucides and therefore reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications (kidney failure, stroke, heart attack, etc.). Diabetic patients are advised to undertake around 150 minutes of physical activity per week alternating if possible between endurance activities (walking, Nordic walking, cycling, etc.) and exercises to strengthen the muscles.

When Should You Contact the Doctor?

Given that half of all people with type 2 diabetes do not know that they have it, it is advised that people over the age of 45 should get their blood sugar levels checked once a year.

Early screening is particularly important because once a diabetes diagnosis is finally received, one third of patients already have complications.

Pregnant women at risk of developing diabetes (who are overweight and/or have a family history of the disease) should be screened from their very first pregnancy appointments. As gestation diabetes can occur in a large number of pregnant women without any known risk factors, screening should be performed between the 24th and 28th week of pregnancy in any case.  

Care at Hôpital de La Tour

Due to its complexity, diversity, and chronic nature, diabetes requires comprehensive and interdisciplinary medical care with long-term monitoring and involvement of the patient in their care plan. The first step is to measure blood sugar levels (glycemia) and potentially perform urine tests. The results will be used to make a diagnosis and therefore determine whether insulin therapy is required. Insulin therapy in the form of injections is prescribed for most patients for whom antidiabetic medication is not the optimum form of treatment.

In Switzerland, between 450,000 and 500,000 people may suffer from diabetes, which is over 6% of the population. For 40,000 of them, it is type 2 diabetes, called adult-onset diabetes.

Did you know ?

Most cases of hyperglycemia go unnoticed. This silent evolution explains why type 2 diabetes is detected after seven years on average. For this reason, the number of diabetic patients, currently estimated to be around 425 million people, is expected to reach 629 million by 2045, according to an estimate by the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). Therefore, it seems even more important to check your blood sugar regularly.

Was happy to find out they opened! Went yesterday after my procedure I was anticipating great food. I ordered the Teriyaki Burger and garlic fries which I found to be so tasty I definitely will order that again!! My husband wanted to try the grilled cheese and tomato soup, I had to taste the soup too, wow so flavorful. I can see us going back time and time again, the staff was very friendly and helpful what an amazing dining experience .

Everything we wanted to try was sold out but was happy to have tried what was left - will get here earlier in the day next time!

Tenders w/ the best seasoned Garlic fries‍ Could we have more dipping sauce options?

Tamago Tartine

Soft opening now (the store is clean and nice): I got teriyaki smash burger and croissants. You can't believe the smash burger is vegan: tasty with lettuce, onions, tomato, and cheese. This made me full yet not greasy, so great! One thing you need to know is a waiting time: needed to wait for 10 minutes but just give them Aloha. A male employee was friendly. They gave me a mochi canele for tasting (limited time?). I chose matcha and it was good (enjoyed while waiting). The following morning, I had their croissant: it's not flaky, so it doesn't mess the dining room and it was good with fruit jam. I will sure to go back and try other menus.

Delicious vegan food and perfect for my niece who is allergic to eggs and dairy. I especially enjoyed the maple flavored mochi bites! Very excited to have Planted in the neighborhood. Welcome!

Super yummy smash burgers. Love having this vegan option in Kakaako. Staff was really friendly and despite it being a soft opening, service was really efficient and food came quickly. Can't wait to go back and try more.

The ‘Whatever, Whenever’ singer came out during Bizarrap’s set at the Sahara stage on April 12. The Argentine DJ brought out Shakira as a guest to perform their collab tracks ‘La Fuerte’ and ‘Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol 53’ at the music festival.

The ‘She Wolf’ singer took the time to announce that she will be going on a world tour later this year beginning with a show in California.

“Thank you for inviting me, Bizarrap. To be honest, it is amazing to be here with this crowd and with you, who’s my friend and colleague. Today, I cannot contain myself, I have to tell you something,” began Shakira.

She continued: “Biza, I am going on tour. I am finally going on tour! Starting here this November, this year in this city. I can’t wait. I couldn’t ask for more. Thank you.” At the time of writing, no dates or other information on the tour have been announced.

Shakira recently released her 12th studio LP ‘ La Mujeres Ya No Lloran ‘ last month. In a four-star review of the album , NME shared: “With a career that spans four decades, she continues to push the envelope for Latin pop music and make the genre a global event. All her previous records had at least one song in English, but this time, she opts to sing fully in Spanish. With this vulnerable yet versatile collection, Shakira shows there are no limits to the art of her catharsis through song.”

News | Students from San Fernando Valley schools get insider tour of Van Nuys Airport

Students from two San Fernando Valley high schools were treated to an aviation career exploration tour at Van Nuys Airport on Friday, April 12, sponsored by Clay Lacy Aviation and the North Valley Occupational Center.

Arleta High School and Polytechnic High School students got to see Clay Lacy Aviation’s hanger closeup as part of an aviation career tour at the airport. They delved into the world of aviation and learned about career opportunities not only as pilots or flight attendants but also as attorneys, mechanics and customer service professionals — to name a few.

“(Today) gave them a spark of curiosity,” said Van Nuys Airport Manager Paul Herrera.

Herrera believes this type of exposure to youth inspires the next generation of aviation professionals, by showcasing the industry’s opportunities.

Nicole Lillingston, a 17-year-old junior at Arleta High School, was one of two dozen students who saw firsthand the many facets of airport operations, from aircraft maintenance facilities to air traffic control towers.

“My future is in music,” Lillingston said. “But it was interesting to see the workshops and how they make engines and work on an actual plane.”

She admitted that becoming a pilot could be her plan B.

Her classmate, Monique De Nava, is set on becoming an ultrasound technician, but her plan B could also be to get a pilot license.

“I liked the energy (here),” De Nava said. “It was nice and welcoming. Aviation offers a lot of opportunities.”

Fewer than 10% of licensed pilots in the U.S. are women, and the percent of women in maintenance fields is in the single digits, according to a 2022 report by the Women in Aviation Advisory Board established by the U.S. Congress.

While participation of women in the overall U.S. workforce has increased dramatically in four decades, the percentage in aviation hasn’t appreciably changed, according to the report.

And as part of the day’s events, 19 students who graduated from the North Valley Occupational Center’s aircraft mechanic tech program, based at the airport, were given scholarships.

Mechanics and technicians require a Federal Aviation Administration license to work on airplanes, and the scholarships help them achieve that goal, according to Emilio Mendez, assistant principal of the program.

“We have received $80,000-plus in scholarships from Clay Lacy over the past eight years,” Mendez said.

Nabi Hemmatyar, a mechanic at a Van Nuys-based jet maintenance facility specializing in Gulfstream aircrafts, was among the recipients.

The 23-year-old, who has an affinity for World War II aircraft, cemented his dream in aviation after visiting a Camarillo airplane museum.

“On one of the slower days, they showed me the maintenance hangers where they work on airplanes and asked me if I wanted to take out some spark plugs of a (Grumman) F8F Bearcat,” Hemmatyar said. “How cool was that? I was hooked. I still volunteer there.”

Hemmatyar said his job requires heavy-duty maintenance.

“If a jet breaks down, it could be disastrous,” he added. “The work that we do is critical to the safety of the flight.”

Tom Watson hopes players ‘do something’ and mend the PGA Tour-LIV Golf split

• Show more sharing options

The professional golf world is bumping along down two separate paths, the PGA Tour and LIV Golf , and those have converged at the Masters .

This is the first time since last year’s U.S. Open that all of the game’s best players have convened to compete against each other.

Noticing that, two-time Masters winner Tom Watson felt the urge to say something about it this week at the annual Champions Dinner, which was honoring defending champion Jon Rahm , who since has defected to the LIV tour.

“We were sitting down and we were having great stories about [late Masters champion] Seve Ballesteros and people were laughing and talking,” Watson said Thursday, after opening tee times were pushed back an hour for inclement weather.

Five surprising things you should know about the Masters

A special tree, unique seats and rookie housing are among the surprising elements at Augusta National Golf Club, which hosts the Masters.

April 11, 2024

Watson and fellow legends Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player participated in the traditional start to the tournament, hitting their ceremonial tee shots on No. 1.

At the dinner on Tuesday night, Watson wanted to say a few words, so he asked Augusta National chairman Fred Ridley if that would be OK. Ridley said, “Please do.”

“I got up and said, ‘I’m looking around the room, and I’m seeing just a wonderful experience everyone is having,’” Watson said. “They are jovial. They are having a great time. They are laughing. I said, ‘Ain’t it good to be together again?’

“And there was kind of a pall from the joviality and it quieted down… In a sense, I hope that the players themselves took that to say, ‘You know, we do have to do something.’”

Watson said Thursday that golf has been “fractured” by the two competing tours fighting over the best players in the game.

There are 13 LIV players competing in this year’s Masters, including Rahm; Phil Mickelson and Brooks Koepka , who tied for second in last year’s tournament; and Patrick Reed , who finished fourth.

“We want to get together like we were at the Champions Dinner, happy, the best players playing against each other,” said Watson, flanked at a news conference by Nicklaus and Player. “The bottom line, that’s what we want in professional golf, and right now we don’t have it.”

Of the many issues that need to be resolved, sorting out who is invited to the Masters is a big one. Players who defect for LIV cannot play in PGA Tour events. They can compete in the Masters and the other three major championships if they qualify.

One of those ways to qualify involves their world ranking, but players don’t receive Official World Golf Ranking points for LIV events. So the field of LIV golfers in the Masters could dwindle by the year.

That means even fewer chances for the world’s best players to compete against each other.

“There’s a lot of people a lot smarter than me that could figure this out in a much more efficient way,” Rahm said. “But the obvious answer is that there’s got to be a way for certain players in whatever tour to be able to earn their way in.”

Can Rory McIlroy finally win the Masters to complete his elusive career grand slam?

Rory McIlroy needs to win the Masters to earn a career grand slam, but he’ll have to hold off LIV stars and his nerves to score a green jacket.

April 10, 2024

Ridley noted that because the Masters is an invitational event, the tournament has the leeway to invite players who might not otherwise qualify, as is the case with some up-and-coming international golfers.

“If we felt there were a player or players, whether they played on the LIV tour or any other tour, who were deserving of an invitation to the Masters,” he said, “we would exercise that discretion with regard to special invitations.”

By late Thursday afternoon, Bryson DeChambeau was leading the tournament at seven under par. He’s a LIV golfer. This isn’t going away.
