£75m project opened 2001. Architects BDP (Building Design Partnership), Glasgow. (The Tower, not in this picture, was by architect Richard Horden with engineers Buro Happold.)
"Three distinct buildings comprise the GSC - the Science Mall, IMAX and the Glasgow Tower. Titanium was selected as the cladding for the external skin of the Science Mall and IMAX Theatre; the first time this extraordinary metal has been used as a cladding material in the UK. With context and sustainability high on the agenda, river cooling was incorporated within the building. These are machines for learning in ... and having fun!"

Engineers Tom Huber (behind MIRI) and Mick Wilks (inside black ISIM Structure) check that MIRI is integrated precisely. The engineers have to make sure that MIRI, the only instrument on the Webb telescope that 'sees' mid-infrared light, is precisely positioned so that it and the other instruments can glimpse the formation of galaxies and see deeper into the universe than ever before.

Engineers worked meticulously to implant the James Webb Space Telescope's Mid-Infrared Instrument into the ISIM, or Integrated Science Instrument Module, in the cleanroom at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. As the successor to NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, the Webb telescope will be the most powerful space telescope ever built. It will observe the most distant objects in the universe, provide images of the first galaxies formed and see unexplored planets around distant stars.

I've joined the ranks of the Order of The Science Scouts of Exemplary Repute and Above Average Physique (Just Google them and assemble your own badge collection!). Here are my merit badges!
Dr Sarah Elsasser holds a large Sheefish (Inconnu). The fish underwent basic biological processing. Muscle tissue (for total metals) and otoliths (for age determination) were also archived.
Somehow this little graphic presentation got lost in Da Vinci's manuscript about human reflexes.
It's kind of understandable. At the time, he was being investigated for herasey, by the Holy Church.
And although nudity was allowed in art. Science was a totally different subject.
Especially involving animal minds and intentions.
Naughty kitty. You need spanking. Not male model....

Black Arrow was a British satellite carrier rocket. Developed during the 1960s, it was used for four launches between 1969 and 1971. Its final flight was the first and only successful orbital launch to be conducted by the United Kingdom, and placed the Prospero satellite into low Earth orbit.
Black Arrow originated from studies by the Royal Aircraft Establishment for carrier rockets based on the Black Knight rocket, with the project being authorised in 1964. It was initially developed by Saunders-Roe, and later Westland Aircraft as the result of a merger.
Black Arrow was a three-stage rocket, fuelled by RP-1 paraffin (kerosene) and high test peroxide, a concentrated form of hydrogen peroxide. It was retired after only four launches in favour of using American Scout rockets, which the Ministry of Defence calculated to be cheaper than maintaining the Black Arrow programme
As a child I loved looking at the covers and the illustrations within my dad's old science magazines. I didn't actually read any, just looked at the pictures. It's still absolutely inspirational stuff.

If someone knows the name of the artist, I'd appreciate if you could share that!

Photos from the March for Science in San Francisco, California, on April 22, 2017. Definitely the smartest signs of any protest I've ever seen.
