This is on SORN.
Only registered in the UK in October 2011, I can't tell if it's right or left hand drive though.
It looks in excellent condition.
The front number plate is far too small for my liking.
Beautiful shots from EVERSPACE.
Shot using Fraps and in-game Action Freeze cam. Bottom cropped (Beta Build and EVERSPACE logo).
Beta (1.1.28051) access is finally here !

On Wednesday, April 2, 2014, the Zarb School of Business Chapter of Beta Gamma Sigma awarded the 2014 Chapter Honoree to Larry Roman, CEO of WDF, Inc. Mr. Roman is a graduate of Hofstra University where he received a Bachelor Degree in Business Administration. He has more than 30 years of experience in the mechanical construction industry in estimating, purchasing, and executive management. The Theta Chapter was proud to acknowledge Larry Roman as he is also a terrific example of someone who embodies the principles of Beta Gamma Sigma. Mr. Roman has demonstrated these ideals through his work and his philanthropic activities, some of which include the Rapid Repair projects following Superstorm Sandy. Mr. Roman is also an active alum who generously devotes both his time and financial resources to Hofstra University.

A “cat's tail” appears wrapped around this planetary system in the making.
The Beta Pictoris planetary system is made up of two dusty disks of debris (asteroid, comet, and planet-forming fragments). Thanks to Webb, scientists have discovered a new structure, a tail of dust extending from the secondary disk.
Webb’s Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) was crucial for detecting the cat’s tail, as it was not revealed at near-infrared wavelengths. MIRI also revealed that the material of the secondary disk and the cat’s tail is hotter than that of the primary disk.
In this image, a coronagraph (the black circle and bar) has been used to block the light of the central star. The scale bar shows that the disks of Beta Pictoris extend for hundreds of astronomical units (AU). (One AU is the average Earth-Sun distance: 93 million miles, or 150 million km.)
Researchers theorize the cat's tail is the result of a dust production event, such as a collision, that occurred about a hundred years ago. They estimate the amount of dust within the cat’s tail to be equivalent to a large main belt asteroid, spread out across 10 billion miles!

This image: NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has imaged star system Beta Pictoris. Webb’s MIRI (Mid-Infrared Instrument) enabled a team of astronomers to investigate the composition of Beta Pic’s main and secondary debris disks—the latter feature previously detected by the Hubble Space Telescope.
Unexpectedly, Webb’s infrared capabilities detected a new feature of the Beta Pic system: a curvy branch of dust that resembles the shape of a cat’s tail. This tail, only noticeable in the MIRI data, extends from the southwest portion of the secondary debris disk and is estimated to span 10 billion miles.
The dust that forms the tail may be similar to the matter found on the surfaces of comets and asteroids in our solar system. Further analysis is required to understand the origins of the cat’s tail, though the team believes a dust production event—such as a collision between asteroids, comets, or planetesimals—is responsible.
A coronagraph (black circle and two small disks) has been used to block the light of the central star, whose location is marked with a white star shape. In this image, light at 15.5 microns is colored cyan and 23 microns is orange (filters F1550C and F2300C, respectively).

Image description: Star system Beta Pictoris. A thin, elongated horizontal orange line appears at the center of the frame, extending almost to the edges. This is a debris disk seen edge-on. A thin blue-green disk is inclined about five degrees counterclockwise relative to the orange main disk. Cloudy, translucent gray material is most prominent near the orange main debris disk. Some of the gray material forms a curved feature in the upper right, resembling a cat’s tail. The central star, represented as a small white star icon, is blocked by an instrument known as a coronagraph, which forms a large black circle at center and two small disks pointing to the upper left and lower right. The background of space is black.

Robinson R22 Beta II crash at the site of the old Kai Tak International Airport, Hong Kong. 1115hrs on 2009.05.01. Pilot and son survived with minor injuries – coach cleaner somewhat surprised.

Image description: Star system Beta Pictoris with labels and graphic overlays. A thin, elongated horizontal orange line appears at the center of the frame, extending almost to the edges. This is a debris disk seen edge-on. A white line traces over the orange debris disk and is labeled “main disk plane.” A thin blue-green disk is inclined about five degrees counterclockwise relative to the orange main disk and is highlighted by a blue-green line labeled “extended secondary disk.” Cloudy, translucent gray material is most prominent near the orange main debris disk. Some of the gray material forms a curved feature in the upper right and is marked with a yellow line labeled “cat’s tail.” The central star, represented as a small white star icon, is blocked by an instrument known as a coronagraph, which forms a large black circle at center and two small disks pointing to the upper left and lower right. The background of space is black. In the lower right corner is a white bar labeled “100 A U.”

Beta Three is the second generation of robots capable of AHE or Artificial Human Emotion. The Alpha Two was the first to use it but the hardware was flawed. As AHE evolved into a more advanced pieces of software, the robot needed to be upgraded to be able to run it. This new robot has a head that has artificial muscles integrated into it for more complex emotions. If the muscles dry out they become very brittle and must be replaced. To keep the muscles wet, the entire head is surrounded by a jar-like helmet filled with a special chemical solution. The body of the robot has also been upgraded to be lighter and easier to repair.
