Flying Cross Country in a New Horizons Space Probe
I wanted to get a sense for what it would be like to look out the window of an airplane flying at the speed of the New Horizons space probe which, as the probe passed Pluto, was about 36,000 mph. Flying at an altitude of 37,000 feet, here’s what that would look like, with windows from a 747 and an SR-71 Blackbird for comparison:
To put 36,000 mph in perspective, at that speed, you’d be able to fly from San Francisco to New York in about five minutes. Of course, you’d also be turned into a ball of searing hot plasma.
Clay Bavor, VP for Google Apps, takes a clever look at the relative speed of nasa New Horizons spacecraft.
I decided to finally get around to touching up and finishing this thing over the weekend. I left it looser than I normally do, but I think I like that? Anyway, here it is!
Sew Wanderlust: Designer Embroiders Her Travels On-Site Instead Of Taking Photos
Most of us bring a camera to our travels, capturing the images of anything that interests us, while annoying the local residents. Designer Teresa
Lim decided she did not want to look like an average tourist, so she
thought of a very unique way on how to preserve the memories from her
trips.Anywhere Teresa goes, she takes the time to make an embroidered
souvenir, depicting the landscape or landmarks that she visited. As of
now she has brought these little souvenirs from such places as Vietnam,
Tokyo, Prague, Germany.On her website Teresa explains how and why the project began: “I
started the project late 2014 after I realised that with today’s state
of the art technology, taking pictures becomes so easy. I wanted
something more from my travels, to be able to take back a part of that
place with me. When I’m done with a piece, I actually feel like I KNOW
that place, and that gives me a huge sense of satisfaction that I think
just taking a photo wouldn’t give.”
