Argonne National Laboratory scientist Yu-Sheng Chen calibrates the needle of the x-ray diffraction machine at Chem.Mat.Cars in the Advanced Photon Source.
A light-transmitting compound that could one day be used in high-efficiency fiber optics and sensors that detect biological and chemical weapons at long distance almost went undiscovered by scientists because its structure was too difficult to examine. Scientists from Argonne and Northwestern University were able to determine the structure of the compound using the uniquely suited chemistry and materials (ChemMatCars) beamline of the Center for Advances Radiation Sources at the Advanced Photon Sources.

Any aquarium worth it's weight in saltwater, has to have some sort of overhead tank scene. The California Academy of Sciences does not disappoint in this regard.
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

Photos for work from the 7th annual Des Moines Public Schools Science Fair. More than 200 students in grades 6-12 presented their research for a chance to go on to the Iowa State Science Fair. A lot of smart, confident kids all in one place.
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.

The Faculty of Science offers Science Rocks! summer camps every year throughout July and August. Designed especially for young people in Grades 4, 5, and 6. These camps are great fun and an awesome learning opportunity for campers.
Today the kids learned to make super stretchy silly putty, watched some amazing science demos, and flew paper airplanes on the green.

This is an Ottoman illuminated and illustrated Turkish version of ʿAjāʾib al-makhlūqāt (Wonders of creation) by Zakarīyā al-Qazwīnī (d. 692 AH / 1293 CE), made at the request of the Vizier Murtaza Paşa (Murtaḍá Pāshā) (fl. eleventh century AH / seventeenth CE). The codex was completed in 1121 AH / 1717 CE by Muḥammad ibn Muḥammad Shākir Rūzmah-ʾi Nāthānī. There are 444 paintings illustrating the text. The binding is not original to the manuscript.

This is the most attractive building of the City of Art & Science.
It was the only good day of my stay in Valencia. It did not rain and we had a nice blue sky. I took the opportunity to capture some blue hour shots. I literally had to run from one location to another to make sure that I can capture as many angle as possible on that day.
A funny incident happened here. It was a nice day with no wind. So there was a decent reflection. But a group of girls were playing with the water destroying the reflection. I requested them to not move the water for few minutes. They did not understand me and answered something back to me in Spanish. Something I did not understand either. Lucky enough, they stopped playing with the water. Not sure if they understood me or just got annoyed, but it worked for me. :)
I remember similar incident in Madrid where someone made their dog swimming in the water near the Debod Temple. It destroyed the complete reflection and spoiled more than one photographer's day. Unfortunately I was one of them.
This is called The Hemisphere. This is an Imax Cinema, Planetarium and Laserium. The building is meant to resemble a giant eye, and has an approximate surface of 13,000 m². The Hemesferic also known as the planetarium or the “eye of knowledge,” is the centerpiece of the City of Arts and Sciences. It was the first building completed in 1998. Its design resembles an eyelid that opens to access the surrounding water pool. The bottom of the pool is glass, creating the illusion of the eye as a whole. This planetarium is a half-sphere composed of concrete 110 meters long and 55.5 meters wide. The shutter is built of elongated aluminum awnings that fold upward collectively to form a brise-soleil roof that opens along the curved axis of the eye. It opens to reveal the dome, the pupil of the eye, which is the Ominax theater. The City of Arts and Sciences is divided in half by a set of stairs that descend into the vaulted concrete lobby. The underground spaces are illuminated with the use of translucent glass panels within the walking path. The transparent roof is supported by concrete arches that connect to the sunken gallery. There is a miraculas echo inside of the building and if two people stay on the two opposite pillars inside of the eye they can seamlessly speak with each other.

Your sign in the Guestbook will be delightful.
Have a nice weekend.
Hope you will enjoy the picture.
Any suggestions or criticisms are always welcome.
me illuminated by the Blue Light Of Science. This light appears in labs when science is getting done.
And in my baby's arms I need no faith
I need no words to define myself
And when I'm holding you, light rushing through
I wanna make it now, safe and straight

As part of Manchester Science Festival. The ‘Science Extravaganza’ brings together experts from across the faculty, creating family friendly workshops for members of the public. This year, the John Dalton Building became a Forensics Lab for a giant game of ‘who done it’, complete with detective notebooks and crime scene tape…
We were also proud to to host Combination Dance Co. working in collaboration with scientists from MMU, UCL and the Motor Neuron Disease Association. Dancers and martial arts performers staged an interactive dance exploring how we currently understand a motor neurone works, how MND affects the body and the effects MND has on those living with the disease.
