EADS Herschel Space Telescope
The European Space Agency's Herschel Space Observatory (formerly called Far Infrared and Sub-millimetre Telescope or FIRST) has the largest mirror ever built for a space telescope. At 3.5-metres in diameter the mirror will collect long-wavelength radiation from some of the coldest and most distant objects in the Universe. In addition, Herschel will be the only space observatory to cover a spectral range from the far infrared to sub-millimetre. |

Sound, Vision & Nanoscience
Scientists at the University of Bristol are turning to nature in their attempts to further their research into Nano-science. Nano-science is the study of structures and properties at the nano-metre scale - a millionth of a millimetre - and the principle research tool is the Atomic Force Microscope. By looking at the ways in which insects "hear" very faint vibrations, the researchers at Bristol have been able to apply these techniques to Atomic Force Microscopes, significantly improving the sensitivity of these instruments, making it possible to record molecular structure with increased accuracy. And at the nearby University of Bath they're applying Nano-science to investigate new lighting technology which could recreate natural sunlight in offices and homes, potentially saving billions on energy bills. Known as Solid State Lighting, researchers now estimate that in the next 20 years 90 per cent of the world's lighting will be provided by this technology. Nano-science may be about the smallest things but its impact on our future will be very great indeed. |

Construction in Womb {Isn't it "TOO" Perfect?}
Read All Please; The human body is the most complicated machine in the world. We see with it, hear with it, breathe with it, walk and run with it, and sense pleasure with it. Its bones, muscles, arteries, veins and internal organs are organized with marvellous design, and when we examine this design in detail we find even more amazing facts. Every part of the body, though each may seem to be so different from another, is made up of the same material: cells. Cells, each of which is one thousandth of a millimetre, are the structural units that form our body and everything in it. Some of these cells unite to form bones, others to form nerves, the liver, the inner layer of the stomach, the skin or the cornea of the eyeball. Each has the size and shape that exactly meet the requirement of that part of the body. How and when did cells, which have such varied functions, come into being? The answer to this question will take us into a process whose every moment is filled with mystery. All the approximately 100 trillion cells that make up your body today came from the division of one single cell. That single cell which had the same structure as all the cells in your body now, came from the union of your mother's egg cell and your father's sperm cell. In the Qur'an, God sometimes refers to the wonders of the earth and the sky, and sometimes to the mysteries of the creation of living things as various signs of His existence. One of the most important of these signs is His wondrous creation of human beings. In many verses, as a lesson to human beings, God advises them to turn and look at their own creation. He explains in detail how human beings come to be and what stages they pass through. In Sura 56, He tells of human creation: We created you, so why do you not confirm the truth? Have you thought about the sperm that you ejaculate? Is it you who create it or are We the Creator? (Qur'an, 56: 57-59) The essence of a human being composed of 60-70 kilos of flesh and a mass of bones was originally contained in a drop of fluid. It is certainly a wonder that an intelligent, feeling human being with the faculties of speech and hearing and with a remarkably complex physical structure could come into existence from a drop of fluid. This development was certainly not the result of a random process or the operation of chance, but rather of a conscious process of Creation. This site will explain in detail a wonder that is experienced continually, by every person on the face of the earth the wonder of human creation. It must be made clear that what is dealt with in this site is only a part of the intricacies of human creation; but even what is related in this site reveals once again the eternal power of the Creator, His limitless knowledge and intelligence that surround and embrace the whole universe. And it will remind human beings that Almighty God is "the Best of Creators". We created man from the purest kind of clay; then made him a drop in a secure receptacle; then formed the drop into a clot and formed the clot into a lump and formed the lump into bones and clothed the bones in flesh; and then brought him into being as another creature. Blessed be God, the Best of Creators! (Qur'an, 23: 12-14) http://www.creationofman.net |

Yananyi Dreaming Qantas 737-800
A combination of piccies from AIRLINERS.NET of Qantas's 737-800 Yananyi Dreaming. Yananyi means going or travelling. The Yananyi Dreaming design features radiating pathways leading to the symbol of Uluru depicted as a physical form surrounded by Kurkara (desert oak trees) and as an abstract representation of concentric circles. Blue hills (Tali) rise from the desert landscape, Mala (wallaby) tracks are imprinted on the sand and Lungata (blue tongued lizard) basks in the sun. It took 29 painters around 2,000 man hours at Boeing's Seattle headquarters working in shifts over six days to paint the Balarinji/Kulitja design onto the aircraft fuselage. Around 200 large stencils of seven millimetre thick plastic measuring 1.27m by 3m were produced to define the overall design. Laying out the more intricate designs of salt bush trees, desert sand areas, Qantas logo, tracks, aircraft registration and fleet numbers took 63 pieces of nylon stencil ranging in size from 0.5m by 1.5m to 1.25m by 5.6m, each of which could be used only once. Around 484.5 litres of paint were sprayed. |

TTC Bus Driver Shooting Arrest-Chief Blair on Gun Violence
Lethal Weapon: Police Trace A Single Gun To Five Serious Crimes Tuesday January 29, 2008 CityNews.ca Staff How can one gun do so much terrible damage? The answer, according to Bill Blair, is all too easily. The Chief emerged on Tuesday to reveal the incredible misery a single .9 millimetre pistol has caused so many in the GTA. The gun in question was on display last Thursday at Police Headquarters, as they tried to reinvigorate the cold case of the shooting of a TTC driver in October 2005. Detectives have finally charged a man, 21-year-old Malcolm Chalmers, in that senseless crime, but cops are equally alarmed by the circuitous and violent route the weapon took to reach their grasp. Police found it when they raided a home in the Lawrence and Orton Park area in September 2006. Then they then began tracing its ruinous rampage. "As a result of the analysis of ballistics testing of the firearm ... and as a result of investigation of evidence that was obtained at a number of other crimes, this one particular firearm has been linked to the murder of Kempton Howard ... on December 13th, 2003," Blair reveals. "It was subsequently used in another attempted murder, a shooting that occurred in Scarborough. Another attempt murder, a shooting that occurred in Durham Region. "It was used on October the 15th, 2005 in the shooting of Jaime Pereira, our transit driver . And it was used a fifth and final time to our knowledge in an attempt murder in Scarborough." The victim in the last crime is refusing to cooperate with police, but two men were convicted and sentenced to life in prison last week in the murder of Howard, a much missed local community leader. Three other crimes the gun has been linked to remain unsolved. "This single firearm, which is believed to have been stolen in Canada, has been used to our knowledge for five very serious offences," Blair intones. "Four attempt murders and one murder in the city of Toronto. And I think it is evidence ... of the destructive power of these weapons and it reinforces my belief that we must do everything in our power to limit access to handguns throughout our city and throughout our society." Authorities still aren't quite sure where the gun was taken from, but confirm it was a legally owned weapon that that was stolen during a robbery. Now they're trying to track how it got from one bad guy to the next. "It's our belief that there's a number of criminals who has had possession of this gun and that it has made its way through a number of different hands and been involved in a number of different serious criminal offences. The actual relationship of the persons involved in these crimes is part of our ongoing investigation into the three unsolved attempt murders in which this firearm was used and, of course, it forms part of this investigation on how the gun came to be into the possession of the now accused, Mr. Chalmers." Equally disturbing: when police seized the lethal weapon in September 2006, they also found more firepower, including another handgun and a shotgun. Mayor David Miller has been equally vocal in his demand for an all-out handgun ban, but it's a federal matter and he can only offer his opinion - not change the law. |

Performance Epiderm extracts
DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES USHERED IN A NEW ERA IN HUMAN HISTORY. NANOTECHNOLOGY, THE SCIENCE OF THE INFINITESIMAL, PROMISES TO HAVE AN EVEN GREATER IMPACT. THE NANOTECH REVOLUTION MAKE IT POSSIBLE FOR HUMANS TO MANIPULATE MOLECULAR STRUCTURES AND INDIVIDUAL ATOMS ON A NANOMETRIC SCALE — THAT IS, TO WITHIN A MILLIONTH OF A MILLIMETRE. INSPIRED BY SUCH TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCES, EPIDERM EXPLORES THAT WHICH IS NORMALLY IMPERCEPTIBLE. IT IS A NANO-OPTICAL SIMULATION THAT BRIDGES THE GAP BETWEEN THE VISIBLE AND INVISIBLE WORLD. THE PERFORMANCE EXPLORES A UNIVERSE THAT EXPANDS INWARD, APPROACHING EXTREMES OF REDUCTION AND COMPLEXITY THAT ARE DIFFICULT TO FATHOM. SKOLTZ_KOLGEN CHOSE TO INTERPRET THE DYNAMIC OF AN INFINITELY SMALL WORLD IN AN IDIOSYNCRATIC WAY. THEIR PIECE PROPOSES AN ARTISTIC APPROACH THAT IS BOTH MACROVISUAL AND SENSORIAL IN NATURE. ITS STARTING POINT IS A VIRTUAL WORLD-FICTION THAT GENTLY DRAWS THE SPECTATOR IN. STARTING AT THE SURFACE OF THE SKIN, EPIDERM DELVES INWARD TO TAKE THE AUDIENCE ON A JOURNEY TOWARDS THE INFINITELY SMALL: FAMILIAR THINGS SUCH AS HAIR AND PORES GIVE WAY TO CELLS, WHICH IN TURN FADE TO REVEAL A FOREIGN LANDSCAPE OF ATOMS. THE NANOWORLD IS A SYSTEM COMPOSED OF MICROPARTICLES THAT INTERACT WITH EACH ANOTHER ON A SCALE WHERE ALL KNOWN REFERENCE POINTS CEASE TO BE RELEVANT. EPIDERM'S VISUAL NANOPARTICLES ARE INTIMATELY LINKED TO A SOUNDSCAPE OF AUDIO SAMPLES THAT STIMULATE THEIR MOVEMENT AND ORIENT THEIR TRAJECTORIES, ESTABLISHING A SORT OF NARRATIVE. THE GENERATION OF SOUNDS WAS ALSO DIRECTLY INSPIRED BY NANOTECHNOLOGY. THE EPIDERM DIGITAL SOUNDSCAPE WAS CREATED THROUGH A PROCESS KNOWN AS GRANULAR SYNTHESIS, WHICH ENTAILS USING THE SMALLEST POSSIBLE UNIT OF SOUND, KNOWN AS A GRAIN — THE EQUIVALENT OF ONE SECOND DIVIDED BY 44,100. THE ORDER OF THE GRAINS WAS THEN REDISTRIBUTED AND REORGANIZED IN ORDER TO LINK SOUND UNITS TO THE VISUAL NANOPARTICLES. THE EPIDERM PERFORMANCE CREATES AN IMMERSIVE ENVIRONMENT AND IS A VEHICLE FOR SKOLTZ_KOLGEN'S EXPERIMENTATIONS IN THE CORRELATION BETWEEN IMAGE AND SOUND. THE PIECE ALSO QUESTIONS THE WAY AUDIENCES HAVE TRADITIONAL RELATED TO THIS SORT OF PERFORMANCE: SPECTATORS ARE INVITED TO LIE ON THEIR BACKS, HEADS RESTING ON CUSHIONS, FROM WHERE THEY CAN CONTEMPLATE THE GIANT CIRCULAR SCREEN HANGING FROM THE CEILING. SPECTATORS' HORIZONTAL POSITION AND THE 5.1 SURROUND SOUND PROVIDE OPTIMAL CONDITIONS FOR THE PERCEPTION OF BOTH SOUND AND IMAGE, ACCENTUATING THE FORCE OF ATTRACTION AND REPULSION AMONG ATOMS AND IMMERSING USERS DEEP WITHIN THE NANOWORLD. IN THIS WORLD OF THE INFINITELY SMALL, IF A HUMAN STOOD ONE NANOMETRE TALL, A RED BLOOD CELL WOULD APPEAR TO BE 1,759 STORIES HIGH. |

BBC Horizon Parallel Universe Part 2 of 5
Scientists now believe there may really be a parallel universe - in fact, there may be an infinite number of parallel universes, and we just happen to live in one of them. These other universes contain space, time and strange forms of exotic matter. Some of them may even contain you, in a slightly different form. Astonishingly, scientists believe that these parallel universes exist less than one millimetre away from us. In fact, our gravity is just a weak signal leaking out of another universe into ours. |
