Magnifying the Universe Embed this infographic on your site! <iframe width="500" height="323" scrolling="no" src=" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br />Copyright 2012. <a href=" the Universe</a> by <a href=" Sleuth</a>. The above is an interactive infographic. Introduction: This interactive infographic from Number Sleuth accurately illustrates the scale of over 100 items within the observable universe ranging from galaxies to insects, nebulae and stars to molecules and atoms. While other sites have tried to magnify the universe, no one else has done so with real photographs and 3D renderings. We hope you have a blast magnifying the universe, know that each time you zoom in a depth, you're magnifying the universe 10x ... and every time you zoom out, the bigger objects are 1/10th of their prior size.

Wounded QR code How do QR codes work? Before we break things it’s probably best to have a quick look at how QR codes work. It don’t want to duplicate the excellent resources already out there, so here is just a brief explanation. (For full details, check out the specifications of the standard ISO/IEC18004). On three corners of a QR code are square blocks that the reader uses to coarsely identify and then align the code. A correctly rendered code also has a “Quiet Region” (Ideally, at least four 'pixel' elements wide) all around the edge of the code to help the reader disambiguate between the code and any other background image. The masks alter the appearance of the code (toggling elements to make canonical versions that represent the same data, but are rendered in different ways). A larger format QR code is shown below showing multiple alignment blocks. The payload for the code (data and checksum data) is then zig-zagged through the grid around the control elements.

File:Uomo Vitruviano.jpg Solar System Scope Scientists use world's fastest 3D printer to create amazingly detailed F1 car By John Hutchinson Published: 00:31 GMT, 31 March 2012 | Updated: 00:36 GMT, 31 March 2012 Making complex, large 3D structures would normally take hours or even days to perfect. But researchers from the Vienna University of Technology have speeded that up - considerably - and produced grain-of-sand sized objects such as bridges, cathedrals and Formula 1 cars. It is thought that the world record for producing the nano-objects in the quickest time has been smashed. London calling: Here is nano-scale model of London's Tower Bridge created by a newly developed 3D printing technique for nano structures Great work: The attention detail for such a speeded-up process is incredible, with the making of the roofing clear The attention to detail is exquisite - and the craftsmanship is even more impressive when you appreciate the scale of the endeavour. In the design of London's Tower Bridge, for example, you can make out details in the roof-work of the tower, as well as the railings on the actual bridge.

The Days (And Years) Of Our Lives Looking at the numbers above, you'll immediately notice that you are different ages on the different planets. The earth is in motion. The top-like rotation of the earth on its axis is how we define the day. The revolution of the earth around the sun is how we define the year. We all learn in grade school that the planets move at differing rates around the sun. Why the huge differences in periods? Johannes Kepler Tycho Brahe Kepler briefly worked with the great Danish observational astronomer, Tycho Brahe. Here you see a planet in a very elliptical orbit. Kepler's third law is the one that interests us the most. Let's just solve for the period by taking the square root of both sides: The Gravity Of The Situation Isaac Newton ©2000 Ron Hipschman
