The subway centennial

The subway centennial 05/04/2004 03:11 PM

You have until the end of the year to check out the New York Public Library's exhibit, The Subway at 100: General William Barclay Parsons and the Birth of the NYC Subway, but why wait?

Celebrating the centennial of the opening of the New York City subway system in 1904, this exhibition both salutes William Barclay Parsons, the first chief engineer of the subway, and recognizes the importance of the subway system to the life and growth of the city.

Sounds great, and since the subway is one of my favorite things about New York City, I'm keen to learn more about its construction and history. I'm adding this exhibit to my to-do list.

Oppenheimer Centennial

Oppenheimer Centennial 04/23/2004 11:01 AM
J. Robert Oppenheimer Centennial: It is telling that the first atomic test would be named in reference to a poem by John Donne ("Trinity") and the next series of tests would be labeled simply alphabetically according to military protocol ("Able," "Baker," "X-ray," "Yoke," and "Zebra"). It is indicative of the changing of hands of the bomb, moving from the responsibility of intellectual eclectics like Oppenheimer into the protocols of military rank and policy.

Dalí Centennial

Dalí Centennial 06/13/2004 04:54 PM

Salvador Dalí, were he still alive, would be 100 years old this year. There is an anniversary exhibit until the end of June at the Vanha Satama in Helsinki of some of his works which, if you admire his work, will be very appealing. I managed to get a free pass for 2 at the Helsinki tourism office when I noticed the passes sitting next to the brochure for the show, so if you want to save yourself 10 or 20 euro, a stop by the tourism office is a good idea. The exhibit has a lovely mixture of lithographs, sculptures and tapestries, including the Gargantua and Pantagruel series which is really clever and brilliant if you're familiar with the book. However, all of the works are for sale, so if you think that paying 10 euro for a high-end museum cum art gallery of reproductions is a bit much, you're probably right. Get a free pass or just visit some of the local galleries who seem to always have Dalí artwork for sale and, as far as I know, don't charge you to browse. Of course, if you have 444,000 euro burning a hole in your pocket, you can purchase the above sculpture and not really dither over the entrance fee. :)

NASA's Genesis crashes

NASA's Genesis crashes 09/08/2004 02:13 PM
Xeni Jardin: The return capsule from NASA's Genesis craft crashed in the Utah desert this morning. From the Wired News story:

The 420-pound space capsule was to have been plucked out of the air by a helicopter and returned safely to earth. It was carrying solar wind samples weighing less than 20 micrograms, which is less than a few grains of salt.

It is unclear whether the samples have been destroyed. NASA officials say that the sapphire, silicon and diamond wafers that were used to collect the samples may have been shattered in the crash, although it may be possible to piece them back together.

"It's a pit in my stomach," said Roger Wiens, flight payload lead at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico, the creator three of the instruments aboard Genesis. But Wiens was optimistic about the opportunity of recovering samples. "It looks like its in one piece, and we're going to get a lot of samples of solar wind out of there."
