This is inspired from the movie Weird Science, definitely an 80's classic that I was addicted to watching!
This is my submission for this month's #AdamsPhotoChallenge.
Take part yourself, the theme is TV & Film. Full details can be found here: flic.kr/p/2j7TZTB

NEMO Science Museum
The green Nemo building
NEMO Science Museum (from latin Nobody) is a science center in Amsterdam, Netherlands. It is located in the Oosterdokseiland neighborhood in the Amsterdam-Centrum borough, situated between the Oosterdokseiland and the Kattenburg. The museum has its origins in 1923, and is housed in a building designed by Renzo Piano since 1997. It contains five floors of hands-on science exhibitions and is the largest science center in the Netherlands.

For Looking Close...on Friday!'s #letters theme
Where would be without these letters? They define everything around us!
The periodic table: taken from "The Secret Life of the Periodic Table". Bought to try to stimulate my sons' interest in science...unfortunately, no visible obvious results as yet. But there's still time...
So, the season premiere of the Flash Season 3 sucked, but episode two gives me a bit more hope that this will be different from Arrow Season 3. But, we can only hope.

What did you guys think of the two recent episodes?
A nice trio of NASA test aircraft performing a fly past at Edwards AFB. The F-15 in this mix is actually the oldest flying F-15 out there.
Blinded by science, I'm on the run
I'm not an appliance, don't turn me on
What's in the future, has it just begun
Blinded by science, I'm on the run...

This was my submission to the Photography Scavenger Hunt for the word reaction! I used a simple kids' science experiment in a fancy glass! Anyone want an exotic drink

Results are in from the pole as to where we will host my next Astrophotography Workshop in September!
The winner is... Bethells Beach!
Want to learn how to shoot Astrophotography and how to edit your images? Come along to my next 2 day workshop with a night out under the stars and an afternoon in the classroom. This will be my last workshop for quite a while!
We will cover:
• Master the single shot, settings etc
• How to shoot and stitch Panoramas – and fix stitching errors!
• Image stacking and the science behind it
• Basic to advanced editing techniques
• Plus much much more!
Check out my events section on my Facebook for more details or PM me. We have 8/10 spots left.
Scale: field of view is approx. 25 cm by 15 cm.
This photo shows a cross-sectional view (a roughly planar surface perpendicular to the originally flat sedimentary bedding/layering). The reddish-brown (oxidized, rusty) vertical linear structures are the fossilized impressions (casts, traces) of plant roots that grew downward into sandy soil (later buried and lithified into sandstone). Some of the root structures show downward branching: inverted V shapes or inverted Y shapes (the 'wishbone' shape near the upper right corner is the best-defined example of this). Preservation of the root structures is patchy and irregular in some places.
The original sedimentary bedding (flat to low-angle layering) is faintly visible in a few spots: near the upper left and lower right corners of the view, low-angle laminations (sloping down to the left) in the sandstone are the internal micro-layering of preserved ripple structures. To recognize such subtle details, it helps to have the 'expert eye' of a clastic sedimentologist, a type of geologist that specializes in this sort of thing.
This view of sedimentary geological details is from a boulder of Paskapoo Formation sandstone (Early Tertiary age: ca. 60 million years old) that has been used as building stone at a site in south Calgary. Back in Early Tertiary time, sand and mud (later lithified into Paskapoo Fm. sandstone and shale) were deposited in and around rivers (in river channels, and on the floodplains adjacent to the main river channels) in what is now southern Alberta, and unsurprisingly, plants would have grown on the floodplain (overbank) areas, just as they do near rivers today.
See other examples of geological details in my "Paskapoo Fm. sandstone" and "Field geology: bedrock exposures" albums.
