From the video it looks like the crane might have come down almost directly over a bridge support - I wonder if it had hit closer to the center of a span if the damage would have been worse - I imagine the tip of that crane had some serious speed when it hit the deck.

Although most of the devices listed are failures - the article title is *Weirdest* so I would like to submit Core Rope Memory used on the Apollo missions, weaved the skilled and often elderly hands of New England textile workers.

With that logic, Fahrenheit is still twice as accurate at any given decimal point.

Celsius is good for measuring temperature in water - because it’s scale is based on the freezing point, and boiling point.

Not to mention grass strips, there is a farmer’s field designated as an airport on the app, drive by and the hay is 3 feet tall, I don’t think anyone is going to be using that field.

Did they try: Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, Start?

I wonder how this will affect our local climate (temporarily) in the area. I imagine removing the leaves will cause more solar heating of the darker ground, plus loss of the cooling effects provided by transpiration from the leaves.

Google maps uses Aerial imagery from airplanes to photograph your driveway - your point is valid, just not the source.

911 is for Life and Death emergencies - don’t use it to report every bit of bad driving you see. Reserve it for when you are confident people’s lives are in immediate danger.

I think the statement from the police is the cause for this strong disagreement from commenter’s and the public.

Nope, there is never a proper use for vertical filming.

Or it could encourage it... let the dangerous chemical be transported independently by drone, instead of on an aircraft full of other expensive commodities and piloted by a human crew.

I think the author is using it correctly - in biology we talk about active and inactive genes all the time. Genes are information, but not all of them are expressed, if I remember correctly you can check if the information is being used by testing for a polypeptide that is produced by “active” genes - information in…

I disagree that it was used “in a way any ordinary citizen might have used it.”

First Stage didn’t survive the landing this time.

I think blimps that had been in service for decades before the Space program would disagree.

Even if they could strap someone to it, I think the deceleration from 4,100 MPH to 0 MPH would cause g-forces our weak little bodies couldn’t handle.

1. I used to run snow guns at a local ski area, we could blow snow up to about 40 degrees with traditional guns, depending on the humidity (evaporation provides the cooling to make snow above freezing). So that upper limit of 28 degrees is already flawed.

The Bellagio uses recycled water for the fountain (whats been cleaned after you wash your hands and flush the toilet).

I also have one, and that isn’t really correct. The transmission has 3 bands. One band for each pedal. Because the reverse band is used the least, it usually has the most friction material.
