pseudo-cosplay photoshoot wearing science blues... don't bug me about accuracy, i know every inaccuracy involved in this shoot. twas just for fun.
Construction continues on the Powerhouse Science Center with some interior progress photos.

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 Hidden Secrets of Epidemics & Evolution
From disease-causing bugs to humankind itself, evolution is the steamtrain of life! Uncovering the secrets behind how bacteria and humans have evolved enables scientists to improve our day to day lives. Join us as we explore the early human art scene, learn how diseases can spread through a population, and find out how evolution takes place

Life is merely a complex chemical system that tries to sustain itself. The ability to sufficiently convert chemical compounds to the others is a foundation of life. Enzymes are molecular machineries that enable these chemical conversions in all living systems. The sophisticated mechanisms of enzymes are the product of millions of years of evolution. We can accelerate and direct this process in laboratories to tailor the properties of enzymes. I will discuss how we can harness the power of evolution to engineer enzymes with unprecedented activities.
The Outbreak Breakout!
Wirichada Pan-ngum (Pongtavornpinyo) and Lisa White (MORU)
Imagine there’s disease outbreak coming and you could play out every scenario before it happens. Understand how a disease epidemic occurs and spreads. Think about how to control or prevent it. You can do it with a balls and hoops game you can play yourselves.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Elephants: The unseen cave paintings of Southeast Asia
Noel Hidalgo Tan (SEAMEO SPAFA)
Step into the world of rock art - filled with carvings of gods, cave paintings and reminders of humankind's long interaction with the landscape. Like the landscapes of Australia and South Africa, Southeast Asia is home to hundreds of rock art sites even as most of them are unknown or inaccessible. What have archaeologists learned about the past through these ancient images?!

Scientists of the Institute of Plant and Animal Ecology (IPAC) of Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences together with colleagues from the French Academy of Sciences are studying the effect of climate change on the state of Arctic ecosystems. Works will be conducted in Greenland and Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District (YNAD), said Vasily Sokolov, senior researcher at the Laboratory of Ecology of Birds and Land Invertebrates at the institute.

Surveying out at the Powerhouse Science Center today, we laser-scanned the existing conditions of the Power Station for reference with our 3D design model. Thanks to Jordan Banning at California Surveying & Drafting Supply for donating his time and equipment to this important project for our region!

The military uniforms displayed in this case date from late 1945. The Manhattan Project shoulder patch on the left shoulder of each indicates that the wearer had been assigned to the Manhattan Engineer District, the secret organization that produced the atomic bomb.
Both jackets on display are the Eisenhower or "Ike" jackets, This style was named for General Dwight Eisenhower, the supreme commander of the Allied forces in Europe during World War II. He had the design of the original World War II uniform modified to make it shorter, more comfortable, and more stylish. Ike jackets soon became standard issue for U.S. troops.
This taupe jacket and cap belonged to a member of the Women's Army Corps. The brass button on the cap is the insignia of the WACs- Pallas Athena, the Greek goddess of victory and wisdom, who stands for strength and intelligence in warfare.
The WAC jacket and cap have been loaded by Debbi Wersonick.
