Near the end of the summer, I was asked by the publishers of Popular Science magazine to produce a visualization piece that explored the archive of their publication. PopSci has a history that spans almost 140 years, so I knew there would be plenty of material to draw from. Working with Mark Hansen, I ended up making a graphic that showed how different technical and cultural terms have come in and out of use in the magazine since it's inception.

SCIENTIST USES THE JEOL 4000 EX DEDUCTED HIGH RESOLUTION TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPE AT HTML.
THE HIGH TEMPERATURE MATERIALS LABORATORY (HTML) BEING CONSTRUCTED AT DOE'S OAK RIDGE NATIONAL LABORATORY WILL SERVE AS THE FOCAL POINT FOR A MULTIDISCIPLINARY STAFF INVESTIGATING CERAMICS WHICH HAVE POTENTIAL FOR HIGH- TEMPERATURE STRUCTURAL APPLICATION, SUCH AS IN ADVANCED DIESEL ENGINES, TURBINE BLADES, AND OTHER TRANSPORTATION AND ENERGY GENERATION SYSTEMS. IT WILL CONTAIN STATE-OF-THE- ART EQUIPMENT FOR CORRELATING THE MICROCHEMISTRY OF MATERIALS WITH THEIR PHYSICAL AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES. THE TWO-LEVEL, 64,500 SQUARE-FOOT HTML WILL ALSO FUNCTION AS A USER FACILITY FOR INDUSTRIAL AND UNIVERSITY RESEARCH COMMUNITIES. OF THE 49 LABORATORIES IN THE HTML, 13 WILL COMPRISE USER CENTERS FOR ELECTRON OPTICS, HIGH-TEMPERATURE X-RAY DIFFRACTION, PHYSICAL PROPERTIES, AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES. IN THIS PHOTOGRAPH, DR. LARRY ALLARD, SENIOR RESEARCH SCIENTIST IN THE HIGH TEMPERATURE MATERIALS LABORATORY OF OAK RIDGE NATIONAL LABORATORY, INVESTIGATES THE ATOMIC STRUCTURE OF A STRUCTURAL CERAMIC MATERIAL USING THE ULTRA-HIGH RESOLUTION IMAGING CAPABILITIES OF THE JEOL 4000EX DEDUCTED HIGH RESOLUTION TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPE.

May 10, 2010 Science at the Theater: The House of the Future.
See what it will take to create tomorrow's net-zero energy home as scientists reveal the secrets of cool roofs, smart windows, and computer-driven energy control systems.
The net-zero energy home
Scientists are working to make tomorrow's homes more than just energy efficient -- they want them to be zero energy. Iain Walker, a scientist in the Lab's Energy Performance of Buildings Group, will discuss what it takes to develop net-zero energy houses that generate as much energy as they use through highly aggressive energy efficiency and on-site renewable energy generation.
Talking back to the grid
Imagine programming your house to use less energy if the electricity grid is full or price are high. Mary Ann Piette, deputy director of Berkeley Lab's building technology department and director of the Lab's Demand Response Research Center, will discuss how new technologies are enabling buildings to listen to the grid and automatically change their thermostat settings or lighting loads, among other demands, in response to fluctuating electricity prices.
The networked (and energy efficient) house
In the future, your home's lights, climate control devices, computers, windows, and appliances could be controlled via a sophisticated digital network. If it's plugged in, it'll be connected. Bruce Nordman, an energy scientist in Berkeley Lab's Energy End-Use Forecasting group, will discuss how he and other scientists are working to ensure these networks help homeowners save energy.

The Health Sciences Program at the University of Hartford prepares you for professional or graduate study in health-related fields, such as occupational therapy, speech pathology, or public health.
The pre-professional track of the health science program prepares you for professional or graduate study in such health-related fields as dentistry, allopathic or osteopathic medicine, optometry, chiropractic, or podiatry.
The curriculum includes prerequisite coursework for many graduate programs in health-related fields, such as biology, physics, and chemistry. The curriculum can also be tailored to meet your needs if you are interested in graduate programs with unique prerequisites (for example, two semesters of physics or a semester of biochemistry).
Additionally, you will take health science courses that introduce you to a wide range of health-related topics, such as Educational Strategies for Healthcare Professionals, The Human Genome, Introduction to Public Health, and Cardiovascular Disease. These courses can help you determine your long-term career goals by exposing you to a range of healthcare professional roles.

Construction progress on the historic building and the assembly of the tilt-up panels for the new addition.
---
Dreyfuss + Blackford Architecture’s design for the Powerhouse Science Center re-envisions a historic riverfront structure as a hub for science education, exploration and promotion in the City of Sacramento. On the banks of the Sacramento River, the Science Center grows out from an abandoned power station building. As a principal component of the Riverfront activation, the Powerhouse Science Center anchors Robert T. Matsui Waterfront Park and borders the southern terminus of the 32-mile American River Bike Trail.
Vacant for over half a century, the structure undergoes a complete historic rehabilitation and the construction of a new floor level inside. A new two-story addition projects from the east side, containing a lobby, classrooms, offices and a cafe. A 110-seat planetarium is prominently on display with a zinc-clad hemispheric dome rising above the building’s mass. As representation of our place in the universe, the facade and building mass is sectioned by multiple planes, creating continuous vector lines that extend across the building and site. From satellites to world landmarks, the lines form connections with local and global points of interest.
The original PG&E Power Station B was designed in 1912 in the Beaux Arts Style by architect Willis Polk and was formally closed in 1954. It is on the National Register of Historic Places, California Register of Historic Places and the Sacramento Register of Historic & Cultural Resources. The Powerhouse Science Center is designed to achieve a USGBC LEED Rating of Silver.

Puffing Billy seen in the Making the Modern World Exhibition at the Science Museum
Puffing Billy is an early railway steam locomotive, constructed in 1813-1814 by engineer William Hedley, enginewright Jonathan Forster and blacksmith Timothy Hackworth for Christopher Blackett, the owner of Wylam Colliery near Newcastle upon Tyne, in the United Kingdom. It is the world's oldest surviving steam locomotive
