In the year 2525
If man is still alive
If woman can survive
They may find
In the year 3535
Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies
Everything you think, do, or say
Is in the pill you took today
In the year 4545
Ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes
You won't find a thing to do
Nobody's gonna look at you
In the year 5555
Your arms are hanging limp at your sides
Your legs not nothing to do
Some machine is doing that for you
In the year 6565
Ain't gonna need no husband, won't need no wife
You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too
From the bottom of a long black tube
In the year 7510
If God's a-comin' he ought to make it by then
Maybe he'll look around himself and say
Guess it's time for the Judgement day
In the year 8510
God's gonna shake his mighty head
He'll either say I'm pleased where man has been
Or tear it down and start again
In the year 9595
I'm kinda wondering if man's gonna be alive
He's taken everything this old earth can give
And he ain't put back nothing
Now it's been 10,000 years
Man has cried a billion tears
For what he never knew
Now man's reign is through
But through the eternal night
The twinkling of starlight
So very far away
Maybe it's only yesterday
In the year 2525
If man is still alive
If woman can survive
They may find
In the year 3535
Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies
Everything you think, do or say
Is in the pill you took today ....
Sorry for not being around guys, i have been working two jobs and have missed so much i have to catch up with everything. So apologies for not catching up with your messages and work...
I had today free so felt i should catch up with my 52 weeks from missing last weeks theme of Technology. I had originally decided to do something combining man and machine but after thinking about it thought i would try the matrix style portraits i have always wanted to try!
It took a lot of layers to say the least but i think i got a similar effect to what i wanted, only downside it isn't dark enough between the highlights. Anyhoo, i'm pleased with the results despite that and hopefully will improve with practice. Now i have to rush off again and go prepare for more work, i hope i get a break soon! Catch up soon guys and gals! :)

Say hello to my new camera!
Well, you can't, because it's not in shot, but this is the first Rachel selfie I've done with my new Christmas present. I went up to Sydney yesterday to try it out, and couldn't resist a few shots of myself. It's excellent for selfies, since its built-in wifi alows me to use my phone to control it - set the focus and various other parameters, and then activate the timer.
Anyway, all that explains the rather strange expression; it's the look of a girl trying something out for the first time :)

Week 42
I found a tut for the 3d tunnel and then wanted to take it a little further so I did a partial s2 wrap for my 52 week shot and added some 3d elements to it. Render time was crazy.

In 1972, the UCADB was given the task of developing a modern armored fighting vehicle based upon Carpathian state-of-the-art domestic technologies. After many prototypes the design became production-ready in 1980, following 8 years in development. However, the project was cancelled in favor of the Krakkau II, another competitor for the Common Main Battle Tank program as the tank was too advanced for its era and it would have needed many more years to fix its flaws.
The XMBT-2000 Technology Demonstrator was a program funded by the United Carpathians to develope a tank that offered greater Lethality, Protection and Mobility with a number of advanced features. However, these features made the tank expensive and costly to operate.
Under the leadership of UCADB, the XMBT-2000 turret and its systems were developed by DunnMetal and the hull with its systems by Dürer Land Systems.
Mobility
The vehicle has a 2 stage gas turbine engine, the first stage 1000hp with a limited maximum speed of 65km/h and the second stage 1600hp for 80km/h top speed. However, the second stage is only avalaible for limited time to protect the engine as prolonged use would cause overheating and worse fuel economy. This power is coupled with a hydraulic suspension to offer great mobility in any situation. The XMBT-2000 fields an advanced suspension system, which allows for individual control of every bogie on the tracks. This allows the tank to "sit", "stand" and "kneel. "Sitting" gives the tank a lower profile and offers superior handling over roads. "Standing" gives the vehicle higher ground clearance for maneuverability over rough terrain. "Kneeling" augments the angular range in which the tank's gun barrel can elevate and depress, allowing the vehicle to fire its main gun downhill as well as engage low-flying aircraft more effectively. The suspension unit also cushions the chassis from vibrations when travelling over uneven terrain, as the bogies can be adjusted individually on-the-fly.
Lethality
It was planned for the vehicle to be equipped with DunnMetal's experimental 140 mm smoothbore gun, though this had to be abandoned when DunnMetal ceased development because the 120 mm/L65 would be more than adequate to counter prospective armored threats for the foreseeable future. The XMBT-2000 was subsequently reconfigured for the 120 mm/L65, though it is capable of mounting the 140 mm gun with minimum modifications should the need arise.
The tank is equipped with an advanced fire-control system linked to a traditional laser rangefinder and crosswind sensor. The FCS is also linked to an advanced gun stabilizer and trigger-delay mechanism to optimise accuracy while moving in uneven terrain.
Protection
Details of the composite armor of the XMBT-2000 are classified, although the frontal armor has been proven to be effective at defeating the 120 mm APFSDS rounds. Explosive Reactive Armor blocks are also present.

Tactical military transport idea, arguably well before the C-17A that we know and love these days.
McDonnell Douglas YC-15A N15YC (72-1875) now preserved at the Edwards AFB West Gate by the Mojave Desert, California.
Only two of these beasts were produced and sadly the other one N215YC/72-1876 was scrapped at one of the Davis-Monthan yards.
[...] nessuno di noi è in grado di fermare lo sviluppo tecnologico: perché è qualcosa che cammina per conto suo, attraverso sterminate ramificazioni che si estendono ormai in tutto il mondo. [...]. Limitarsi a denunciare i rischi dello sviluppo tecnologico non è quindi sufficiente, perché, comunque, la tecnologia continuerà ad avanzare (e la gente a usarla). [...]. Quello che si può fare è prender atto di questa situazione e, per quanto possibile, governarla.

Englander used his new orbit-determination tool to create the design (not associated with any mission or mission proposal) because a colleague suggested Odysseus was a difficult-to-reach target.

Traveling to remote locations sometimes involves navigating through stop-and-go traffic, traversing long stretches of highway and maneuvering sharp turns and steep hills. The same can be said for guiding spacecraft to far-flung destinations in space. It isn’t always a straight shot.
A NASA technologist has developed a fully automated tool that gives mission planners a preliminary set of detailed directions for efficiently steering a spacecraft to hard-to-reach interplanetary destinations, such as Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, and most comets and asteroids.
The tool, the Evolutionary Mission Trajectory Generator “offers a paradigm shift from what we normally do,” said Jacob Englander, a technologist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md., who devised a concept for his computer-based tool while a doctorate student at the University of Illinois in Champaign. “EMTG will be used, and already is being used, to develop trajectories for proposed Goddard missions that cannot be designed using any other current tool.”

This one from me depicts the evolution of technology in computers and telecommunication.
A vision for the future of Technology.
Near Future Technology is our first foray into the slightly daunting world of NFT's and just like us she's unsure of what happens next. Blockchain here we come...

Barbara was technically just a sophisticated computer program with access to an android body although her programming didn't allow her the luxury of knowing that. She also felt completely heartbroken at the demise of her tamagotchi and her programming definitely wasn't supposed to allow that either. She didn't really have a heart after all.
It was all very confusing both for her and for the scientists who were studying her. She was the first of her kind and was currently confounding all expectations. She would gaze out of the window for hours at a time and would lament at length about her deceased digital friend. How would she cope in this brave new world...
Cheers
