A highly sensitive monitoring station, capable of intercepting signal traffic across the boundaries of conventional equipment.
The monitor comprises the display device, circuitry and an enclosure. The display device in modern monitors is typically a thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) thin panel, while older monitors used a cathode ray tube (CRT) about as deep as the screen size.
Sapporo maintains a solar/battery-powered real-time radiation monitor, after the Fukushima incident. 0.035µSv/hour when I was there, not a number I think we should be particularly concerned about, but if you live there for an entire year, it's the equivalent of 5 chest x-rays. I believe I was exposed to more radiation during the flight over than while I was in Japan.
Small beetles, only a mm or two. Gotten from sweeping on the Beltsville Agriculture maglev Trainyard site. So many of these small species. Just documenting the diversity of the area in case it disappears under concrete. Photos by Jade Louis ~~~~~~~~~~{{{{{{0}}}}}}~~~~~~~~~~

We Are Made One with What We Touch and See
We are resolved into the supreme air,
We are made one with what we touch and see,
With our heart's blood each crimson sun is fair,
With our young lives each spring impassioned tree
Flames into green, the wildest beasts that range
The moor our kinsmen are, all life is one, and all is change.

Years after I watched this as a kid, I'm struck by how much Jetson's desk here resembles my own, and how he complains about his button pushing finger and everyone I know complains about their keyboard mashing wrists and how everyone I know has multiple giant monitors like this.
