This image is part of a collection from a full uncut roll of film taken by Lew Funk that wonderfully preserves the 34th Bomb Group's role in the massive raid on Berlin on February 3, 1945.

This image is part of a collection from an uncut roll of film taken by Lew Funk from the 34th Bomb Group during WWII. It show the 34th Bomb Group's role in the massive raid on Berlin on February 3, 1945. The sequence of the pictures in this collection preserve the story of the flight across the English Channel, bombs dropping on the target, the flak the men endured over enemy territory, and their safe return home to Mendlesham Air Force base. The American air attack on Berlin's railway system on February 3rd was one of the heaviest of the entire war. Overall 1,500 bombers from the Eighth Air Force flew this mission and 1,000 fighters joined to protect them. The 34th Bomb Group dispatched 38 planes for this mission and dropped 90 tons on the primary target.
This is color film, but the color degraded over time and most the colors oxidized and turned orange. Only a little bit of red that survived in the images. So most the images in the collection have been rendered in black and white like other images from that period.

i used it whenever i was sleeping at night.. it was never directly on my face, but blowing at it. i already had sleep apnea, but the morphine, even when i was wide awake, slowed down my breathing. if i didnt breathe enough a machien would beep and wed have to reset it.. which happened 10000s of times.

The last couple of days have bee glorious - the sun has shone and the temperature risen. As it's the weekend, I took the opportunity to dip the underwater housing into the pond to see how the 'poles are getting along. (The preceeding frogspawn images were taken last weekend (6 days ago)).
Oxygen bubbles surround the eggs, and a crown of algae is starting to form, however the eggs themselves have turned clear as the cell differentiation progresses (see the cropped image).

This the Atlas V rocket carrying the new NASA Landsat satellite shortly after breaking the sound barrier. I'm about 5.5 miles away. The Atlas V first stage uses a Russian built RD-180 rocket engine that burns kerosene and liquid oxygen as fuel. The second stage uses an American RL10 engine that burns liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen.
Now that the satellite is in orbit with the solar panel deployed a new phase of work begins where technicians calibrate the sensors & cameras and test the systems. If all goes well after "launch + 100 days" as they say the satellite will be turned over to USGS and begin its mission to continue the 40 year Landsat legacy of mapping the Earth every 16 days. More on this in a later post.

Riccia making oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis - this plant is an aquatic liverwort. I believe some people use it in their aquariums. This one was stuck in a plastic jar in a dark cabinet in the botany lab for almost a year or so. I had little hope it was still alive when I found it, but after a few weeks in the light this is what it looks like! Definitely alive and photosynthesizing.
There is a sign on the fence which says that combustible material is not to be placed within 20 feet of these tanks – why then the pallets loaded with waste cardboard?

I picked this up years back when it was about to be thrown out of my old Red Cross centre and found it again today. It seems to be a soft plasic face mask (a re-usable one!) which sits into the metal cylinder. The tiny Oxygen cylinders fit into the large metal tube. The black plastic on the top looks to be a sort of plunger. I certainly never saw or used such a device, anyone ever recall these, and for what they were used in treating? It looks like it was held by hand to the patients face as there is no looping to secure to the head.
