Xeni Jardin: Boing Boing reader Bram says,
"Back in January, Xeni posted about a giant 150-km long iceberg running loose in the Antarctic. As predicted, it smashed into a natural "pier" where it got stuck for months. Well guess what -- it's on the run again. The ESA website has satellite images and a little animation."

Rebuilt Da Vinci Self-Propelled Wagon


Rebuilt Da Vinci Self-Propelled Wagon 07/03/2004 11:36 AM

italy.184.jpg imageThe Times has a great article about a modern-day recreation of a design by Leonardo Da Vinci -- a three-wheeled wagon that may not only have been the world's first self-propelled vehicle, but possibly one of the first computers. Powered by a wound spring, tensed by pushing the wagon backwards, the range of the device -- which has been rebuilt for the Leonardo museum and library in Vinci, Italy -- was only about 40 yards. Not enough for a trip to the trip to the store, but enough, perhaps, to move a prop across a stage by itself.

EMIEW: Two-wheeled Balancing Robot 03/19/2005 02:54 AM
Everybody is talking about Hitachi's new robot, EMIEW. It's a two-wheeled balancer on the bottom and a vaguely humanoid robot on the top. EMIEW is 1.3 m tall, weighs 70 kg and can scoot along at 6 km/hr while avoiding objects with vision sensors and radar. The robot was created by the Hitachi Mechanical Engineering Research Lab which has produced a number of interesting robots over the past 40 years. And, in case you were wondering, EMIEW is an acronym for Excellent Mobility and Interactive Existence as Workmate. For more on EMIEW see the Pittsburgh Post-gazette, BBC News, Taiwan News, and Slashdot.

Abandoned Railway Stations


Abandoned Railway Stations 03/20/2003 08:30 AM
Servi ceton is a small railway town on the border of South Australia and Victoria, and was once a means for traders to escape taxes when travelling between the colonies, due to errors made when surveying the state borders. No train has stopped here since 1986, and now only a handful of people remain in the town, a sad downfall that Tom Waits has immortalized in song. But abandoned railway stations, closed as populations decline or trade routes change, exist the world over, in the city and in the country, and yes, even in France. They look like great places to explore.
