An evening walk in False Creek in downtown Vancouver Canada. Amazing what the iPhone can do handheld now.

Along the opposite direction from the Big Wheel is the Science Museum “Museum of Tomorrow”. It was closed when I arrived, although open later in the day. It was designed by Spanish neofuturistic architect Santiago Calatrava, who also designed the “City of Science” in Valencia. His architecture has been used as backdrops to quite a few science fiction films.

Covid-19 still has this Marine Science Center Closed. This is the craziest thing I have ever lived through. When will this end..??
Smash the "L" key to enlarge, then you can read the closed sign on the building.

Marchikoma. I must admit I never really was all that keen on lime Lego until I saw the upcoming Lava Explorers city line. Now I'll have to order more lime bricks!

This is the Life Sciences Building at University of Bristol, a modern building opened in 2014 with an impressive wave structure all along one side. Directly behind this shot are the much older buildings of the University complex, and the juxtaposition of new and old looked rather impressive in the evening light.

Space Science image of the week:
In the early hours of Saturday morning, the international Cassini–Huygens mission made its final close flyby of Saturn’s largest moon, Titan, coming within 1000 km of the atmosphere-clad world.
The image presented here is a raw image sent back to Earth yesterday, taken on Saturday at 18:42 GMT. It is one of many that can be found in the Cassini raw image archive.
The latest flyby used Titan’s gravity to slingshot Cassini into the final phase of its mission, setting it up for a series of 22 weekly ‘Grand Finale’ orbits that will see the spacecraft dive between Saturn’s inner rings and the outer atmosphere of the planet. The first of these ring plane dives occurs on Wednesday.
Cassini will make many additional non-targeted flybys of Titan and other moons in the Saturnian system in the coming months, at much greater distances. Non-targeted flybys require no special manoeuvres, but rather the moon happens to be relatively close to the spacecraft’s path.
A final, distant, flyby of Titan will occur on 11 September, in what has been nicknamed the ‘goodbye kiss,’ because it will direct Cassini on a collision course with Saturn on 15 September. This will conclude the mission in a manner that avoids the possibility of a future crash into the potentially habitable ocean-moon Enceladus, protecting that world for future exploration.
A press conference will be held on 25 April at 13:30 GMT (15:30 CEST), at the European Geosciences Union meeting in Vienna, to preview the Grand Finale, as well as celebrate the scientific highlights of Cassini’s incredible 13-year odyssey at Saturn.
Just today a new result was published in Nature Astronomy finds that when viewed from Cassini's orbit, Titan's nightside likely shines 10-200 times brighter than its dayside. Scientists think that this is caused by efficient forward scattering of sunlight by its extended atmospheric haze, a behaviour unique to Titan in our Solar System.
Cassini–Huygens is a cooperative project of NASA, ESA and ASI, the Italian space agency.

Thanks for the comments and "faves" :)
Multiple levels (parallel planes; rock surface curves down to right) of slickensided fault surfaces in an outcrop of Marron Fm. andesitic volcanic rock (in south-central British Columbia), with one of my fingers for scale. Above my finger, the lighter coloured material is a mineral vein (fluid flowed along a fault plane and mineral precipitated from solution) with a patchy distribution now because it is partly eroded away.
The slickenlines present have two different groove lineation directions, diagonal down to the left and down to the right in both the purplish-brown host rock and the light brown vein material. They record two different steep (sub-vertical) directions of fault motion at this site back in the Eocene (ca. 50 million years ago), a time of post-orogenic normal faulting in this part of western Canada.

Caps were a bastard, couldn't really be fucked on this one.
Shouts to all the damage cats that turned up! Till next time killas! Stay tuned more to come.
unfortunately no techy black in this, rain washed away mulsh background. annoying. Some colours didnt work, hence lack of 3d shading/ bevel in some fills and fuck to be honest the bevels pretty shite in this one. Keep frosty kats.
Hit me up if you are in Ebrugh or Glasgow. Looking for more cats to paint with.

It is a science of how the ancient Romans produced this glass art 1700 years ago.

SCIENCE is the topic for Wed Jan 25 2017 Group Our Daily challenge
Searching my Google Maps right before the Lousiana Border we found the.INFINITY Science Center that actually was on One side of the Highway and the Other Side is where the John C. Stennis Space Center was by appointment only and that was where the actual launch the Rockets. What we were in for was a brush-up of our space program and a real Rocket Scientist’s explanation of how a rocket works, which filled any remaining empty brain cells I had with a new understanding of the complexity of rocket engines, and the realization I won’t be building one soon. Our visit was on a Monday and the crowds were sparse till later in the afternoon
found this book in the library, been wanting to read it ever since I got into the Strobist movement..
