Saddens me that people are losing touch with the sciences a bit. Wanting everything to work and not caring why it works... Gotta show science the <3 once again.
On the set of the dystopian science-fiction movie Ready Player One, being filmed around the western parts of Birmingham City Centre. For the duration of the film, the city centre has been decked out to look like the horrifying future of 2044 Ohio, with burning oil drums, graffiti on the walls (which already had graffiti on them!) and a selection of old vehicles from both Europe and America which have been battered and broken to resemble the results of years of neglect and vandalism.
The vehicle demonstrated here is a rather beaten up externally, but internally pristine, Lancia Thesis, one of those rather pug-faced luxury machines made available only to the European market.
From what I've heard the Thesis is a very good car, being very smooth, comfortable, a bit heavy on the turning but otherwise a very good machine, but that styling does look a bit... well... strange...
The car first made an appearance as a prototype back in 1998 Dià logos concept car, and some early one-offs were built as early as 2000, with a special laundalet version being built for Pope John Paul II. The production model made its debut in March 2001 at the Geneva Motorshow and its interior was displayed for first time at the Frankfurt Motor Show. Sales started in June 2002 in Italy, with export markets following shortly after. The car was powered by a range of engines, from the base 2.0L single-block Inline-5 Turbo engine to a 3.2L V6. Internally the car was very well equipped, with wood and leather beautifully styled and crafted to perfection, and was endearing for its addition of radar adaptive cruise-control, the first Lancia car to come with this feature.
Contention however was with the external styling, which many motoring critics were quick to pounce on as being somewhat repulsive, almost as if Lancia had attempted to base the car on the abject failure that was the Ford Scorpio. However, according to Lancia designers, the car was designed to be deliberately po-faced so as to turn heads, in similar fashion to the FIAT Multipla and its layer cake style.
Production ended in 2009 after only 16,000 units were built, and for a while Lancia didn't actually build executive cars. However, in 2011 the company began to release badge-engineered versions of the new Chrysler 300C, being dubbed the Lancia Thema II.

Got the 17-40L lens for my Puerto Rico trip. Took me a while to get used to it, but I think I finally have the hang of it. Also got me a 10 stop ND filter! I'm loving the combination :)

Thanks for stopping by and view this photo. The reason for posting this photo on Flickr is to learn so if you have constructive feedback regarding what I could do better and / or what I should try, drop me a note I would love to hear your input.
View On Black the way it should be seen!

The Arabidopsis plant’s root structure, shown in a cross-section view, is helping to improve understanding of the rhizosphere, or plant root zone. Researchers believe learning more about the rhizosphere will help clarify environmental processes, and perhaps give rise to future climate and environmental solutions. Toward this goal, a rhizosphere research campaign was initiated at EMSL, the Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory, a U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science national scientific user facility located at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. The effort has focused on the Arabidopsis plant’s management of carbon nutrients and subsequent impacts on the diversity of the rhizosphere. The campaign includes scientists from EMSL, PNNL, DOE’s Joint Genome Institute, Brookhaven National Laboratory, the University of Minnesota and the University of Missouri. The work is funded by DOE’s Office of Biological and Environmental Research.
Team members: Ljiljana Paša-Tolić, Alice Dohnalkova, Galya Orr, David Hoyt, Heather Brewer and Angela Norbeck all of EMSL; Kevin Minard, Meng Markillie and Charles Ansong of the PNNL Fundamental & Computational Sciences Directorate; Susannah Green Tringe (DOE-JGI), Richard Ferrieri (BNL), Mike Sadowsky and Chanlan Chun of the University of Minnesota and Gary Stacey, Yaya Cui and Lihui Song of the University of Missouri.

Science Center Nemo is a science center in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
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. It attracts annually over 500,000 visitors, which makes it the fifth most visited museum in the Netherlands.

I edited this photo of an eye to look out of this world, alien-like :) Love how it turned out!

Eeek, so glad I got her now, after being iffy about the price, but then getting given a £5 off voucher by the store clerk, I got her for £13!
Love her second outfit too, looks better with original lagoona's shoes though!

The science objectives of the BepiColombo mission cover all aspects of the planet and its environment. Broadly speaking, this will be achieved by studying the following themes:
The origin and evolution of a planet close to its parent star
The planet’s interior structure and composition
Characteristics and origin of its internal magnetic field
Surface processes, such as cratering, tectonics, polar deposits and volcanism
The structure, composition, origin and dynamics of Mercury's exosphere
The structure and dynamics of Mercury's magnetosphere
Einstein's Theory of General Relativity (by making precise measurements of the spacecraft’s orbit and position)
