Whenever plane accidents occur, the black box is searched. At the time of every accident we hear that a search is going on. As soon as this is known, the real reason for the accident will come to light. But what is this black box, is it really black in color? Why did it get this name, and how could it reveal the secrets of plane accidents? Let us know everything.
Almost a year ago on January 19, a plane accident took place in Nepal, in which more than 70 people were killed. Then it took several days to search the black box of the plane. He was examined. After all why is this such an important thing? Actually, it is called flight data recorder. A black box made of titanium is kept in the rear of the aircraft for security reasons. So that if it falls from a height into the sea or on land, the damage is minimal. It is being installed in planes since 1953-54. So that the situation before the accidents can be recorded and kept in a box whose chances of getting broken or destroyed are very less.
not black, this color
Now the answer to the original question. The color of the black box was red from the beginning. It was called ‘Red Egg’. Some people claim that its inner wall is kept black, that is why it was named black box. However, there is no scientific confirmation of this. Because its upper part is bright orange or red in color. There is a special reason behind this also. Due to its red color, it will be visible if it hides in bushes or somewhere in the dust.
What does the record do?
There are two parts inside the black box. In the first, flight direction, altitude, speed, fuel and movement etc. are recorded. Whereas in the second part the movement of the cockpit inside the aircraft is recorded. It is made in such a way that it can tolerate a temperature of 11000 degrees Celsius for one hour. If the temperature is 260 degrees Celsius then it can tolerate for 10 hours. It can work without electricity for a month. It keeps sending waves continuously, through which it can be identified.
