Yes, you can apply to the academy until you are 22. The rule is you have to graduate before you are 27.

The US Air Force Academy is known as a public institution, rather than private. This school was founded in the year 1954 as a National Liberal Arts college.
The first telecast of the Academy Awards show was in 1953 on NBC.

The main athletic rival of the United States Air Force Academy is The United States Military Academy, also known as West Point, or simply Army. This is due to the closely intertwined histories of the two branches of the military in which the Air Force separated from the Army to become an independent branch of the military in 1947. The Air Force continued to be supplied with officers from West Point until The Air Force Academy graduated its first class in 1959. Another close rival is the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, MD. The Big Three Service Academies: Air Force, Army, and Navy all compete against each other in almost every NCAA sport regardless of conferences and in NCAA Division 1 Football play each other every year for the Commander in Chief's Trophy.
yes
Well depending on the year of the appointees school or basic training will usually start in the end of June.
Douglas Fairbanks and William C. deMille co-hosted the first Academy Awards in 1929. deMille hosted by himself the following year.
The 38th Academy Awards Ceremony in 1966 was the first to be televised in color.
Some college grants ask you to reapply every year, while some let you go with only applying once. I would talk to the company that is giving me the grant to know for certain.
Basic Military Training is initial accession training for Enlisted Air Force Personnel. The Air Force Academy is a school for commissioned officers, and as such, after first getting accepted to the Air Force Academy, you must still go through Basic Cadet Training. If you plan on attending the Academy and have the ability to get accepted, I strongly recommend not entering enlisted basic training, as I have heard some graduates joke about how they went through 5 different Basic Trainings: Enlisted Basic, Academy Preparatory School (Where almost all prior enlisted cadets must spend a year before even beginning their 4 years at the Academy) Basic, Air Force Academy Basic, and then twice through the Academy Basic as cadre/instructors. The Air Force Academy application is a long process which includes writing samples, academic resumes, interviews, as well as medical examinations and physical fitness testing. The process of interviews, essays, and resumes is also repeated to acquire a Congressional Nomination to attend. For more specific information on this process, contact an Admission Liaison Officer.
