Preliminary Report on Unidentified Object 92002, "The Chiron Derelict"
I created a new video to demonstrate the (hand-cranked) flickering backlight of the Neuronal Node. (This is the Director's Cut - if you saw the video when I posted earlier pictures, the music is better now and the whole thing has been reworked. The video is over on YouTube, because Flickr's video player doesn't seem to work very well.) Enjoy!
Discovered by a robot probe exploring the minor planet 2060 Chiron, object 92002 appears to be nothing less than an interstellar spacecraft of nonhuman origin.
The relevant probe imagery was suppressed, and an unprecedented manned exploration mission was dispatched to investigate the artifact.
Adrift, apparently long abandoned, the vessel is nonetheless far from lifeless. Indeed, the ship itself is alive. It shows every indication of being a complex colony organism composed of many disparate subunits, which the exploration team calls "nodes".
This appears to be no natural space-going lifeform, but a deliberately assembled combination of biomechanoid modules. Most of the nodes are so completely self-contained, so tightly specialized, and so efficient at their functions, that they must have been genetically engineered with near godlike skill.
This "neuronal" node appears to be a small-scale neural network, equivalent in decision-making power to perhaps a few dozen biological neurons. These nodes - many thousands of them, no two exactly alike - are part of a larger apparent network that covers the derelict's surface in complex stripes and webs, integrating other types of nodes at times.
Many of the derelict's neuronal nodes seem to be still active, even when excised and placed in shielded storage. There are dark patches, but it would be prudent to assume that the derelict as a whole may be, even now, intelligent and aware.
The unexpected discovery of such an advanced alien artifact so close to Earth is alarming, and the apparent abandonment of the vessel by its presumed crew is hardly reassuring. If they - whoever they are - are not still on board...where did they go?
This is an illuminated alien/organic greeble study for Greeble De Mayo 2015, Week Three.
Most of the amyloid consisted of acellular pink globules that effaced and expanded the node, but this image shows the characteristic involvement of blood vessel walls

My Node0 built in a double wardrobe cupboard. Gets quite hot in there with all the kit though. I did add a ceiling extract fan (an in-line bathroom type) that is controlled by an X10 AD10. This means I can turn it on/off as necessary. I currently have it turning on at 08:30 and off when the Comfort alarm is armed to night mode (as the fan is a little noisy). The next upgrade is to fit a quieter fan with a bigger air flow as Node0 still gets very warm in the summer.

Thomas James Rodoni was born in 1882 at Hotham East, Victoria, to Swiss and Irish parents. While living in Sydney in August 1914 as a man of 31, Rodoni joined the first Australian Imperial Force that would engage in the Great War: the Australian Naval & Military Expeditionary Force.
A week after enlisting, Rodoni’s company embarked on the HMAS Berrima and sailed to German New Guinea among a fleet with orders to seize two wireless stations and to disable the German colonies there.
Rodoni’s unofficial photographs – many of them “candid” shots, captured in the moment – are a rare glimpse of this pivotal moment in Australia’s history. He has documented the energetic atmosphere of prewar Sydney and its surrounds, from civilian and military marches to battleships docked in Sydney Harbour, with accompanying crowds of people brought together for these special events. His camera voyaged with him on the expedition to the Pacific region, taking images both from the ship’s deck and then again on dry land after disembarking.
Rodoni was stationed in New Guinea for five months with the AN&MEF after the successful capture of territory from the German forces. His striking images are testament to his ease with the camera, and the ease of his fellow servicemen around this avid amateur photographer. He used his camera to record daily events and significant moments in the expedition, and made several group portraits of the officers and soldiers in his company. Yet his images also suggest a genuine curiosity for the foreign people and places where he was stationed, and a love of the photographic medium in which he practiced during this early period of the war.
After leaving New Guinea with the AN&MEF and returning home to Australia in January 1915, Rodoni left the force to work in a Small Arms Factory manufacturing munitions for the war. He soon married and settled in Newcastle with his wife, Catherine Annie Wilson, and had four children: Thomas, Mary, Jim and William (Bill).
The wider collection of glass plate negatives – over 600 in total and with many views of Newcastle and its surrounds is an incredible legacy to Thomas Rodoni and his family.
Rodoni died in 1956 as a result of a car accident in Waratah, Newcastle.
The original negatives are held in Cultural Collections at the Auchmuty Library, University of Newcastle (Australia).

Amyloid accounted for about 90% of the node's volume, but the residual lymphoid tissue looked benign, with small but well formed germinal centers.

Notes
Looking for a new way to surf the Gnutella network - a P2P community sharing network (http://www.gnutella.com) - Gregory Bray decided to use a web spider, as a means of collecting information from each node, in order to create a map of the network and gather statistics without changing the Gnutella protocol. After the web spider downloads all the information it can find, a simple parser creates the statistics and outputs the data file in a graph using aiSee Graph Layout Software (http://www.aisee.com). As the author explains: "So far the largest data set I have collected was about 80,000 nodes in half an hour (...) way more than the 10 or 20 thousand that the common user can see".
Hình ảnh về con người và thiên nhiên của nhóm "Môi trường, Environment photos" chia sẻ những góc nhìn chân thực về đời sống con người và thiên nhiên. Từ đó cho thấy con người sống không thể thiếu thiên nhiên, thiên nhiên là một trong những yếu tố phát triển xanh mà các dự án bất động sản ngày nay đang cố gắng khai thác triệt để, nhằm tạo ra lợi ích cạnh tranh so với các dự án khác điển hình trong giai đoạn này chúng ta có thể thấy các dự án như kenton node quận 7 và hàng loạt dự án căn hộ cao cấp khác ở các đô thị mới. Xu hướng phát triển xanh cho thấy kì vọng phát triển bền vững trong tương lai, tuy nhiên các dự án phức hợp và dành không gian xanh đòi hỏi rất nguồn tài chính vô cùng lớn. Đồng thời mức giá bán căn hộ kenton cũng sẽ ở phân phúc cao cấp..... tuy nhiên xét trên góc độ bền vững thì đây vẫn là mức giá hợp lý. Mặt khác Bất kỳ một sản phẩm BĐS nào cũng đều được hình thành từ một nguồn tài chính nào đó, có thể từ nguồn tích lũy, tiết kiệm của tổ chức, cá nhân, có thể từ nguồn vay ngân hàng, vay tổ chức, vay cá nhân, gia đình, quỹ tín dụng, .v.v…, như vậy sản phẩm và theo đó là thị trường BĐS được hình thành từ những nguồn tài chính khác nhau của xã hội, trong đó có thị trường tài chính. Ngược lại, trong rất nhiều trường hợp, sản phẩm BĐS lại là cơ sở để tạo ra các nguồn tài chính mới thông qua các nghiệp vụ về cầm cố, thế chấp, bảo lãnh, các nghiệp vụ về tín dụng và phát hành .v.v…Tài chính & bất động sản hiện nay đang thu hút mối quan tâm lớn của không chỉ giới kinh doanh bất động sản mà với đông đảo các thành phần trong xã hội: vốn đang chảy từ cổ phiếu sang bất động sản? sự biến động của tài chính bất động sản Hoa kỳ có ảnh hưởng như thế nào đến các nhà kinh doanh bất động sản Việt Nam? Các ngân hàng có vay mua nhà ở như thế nào?... 1001 vấn đề có liên quan giữa tài chính và bất động sản được đưa ra. Các câu hỏi trên sẽ được giải đáp tại website: hoangphiluan.com/
