Man on the moon, just in time for Tea.

One of the First Space Station Concepts Was Made of Brick














In 1869, Atlantic Monthly writer E. Everett Hale imagined what a space station might look like. I see lots of brick, but given NASA's bugdet cuts, it's all they can afford. ohhh hits you right in the manifold.

Steampunk Guns will blow your mind...from your skull.

Gone are the halcyon days when I use to fawn over the slightest thing steampunk. But, then, came the eternal September of wanna-be's gluing gears together or attaching nonfunctional brass tubing to a computer and passing it off as the real thing. So, normally I ignore "steampunk" news but in this case ::swoon:: these guns actually shoot.

It shoots at such a velocity that they can penetrate cardboard at a respectable distance:



This is Black Betty and shoots ping pong balls and confetti paper, the latter of which can be lit up to throw fire! oooo my caveman genes just got goosebumps

This blunderbuss shoots rubber balls. Cool, but if it the ammo was meatballs, they could shoot me. Aim for the mouth! (thats what she said)
