Synchropter Kaman K-MAX. The most unusual helicopter.

According to Kaman, the criss-cross rotor design is the most effective for vertical lifting operations, as it reduces power consumption, structure weight, noise, vibration, maintenance costs, and safety associated with no tail rotor.

🇺🇸 People posing on the Fieldbrook stump, probably the largest redwood tree in the world, Humboldt County, California, 1890's. It was cut down to satisfy a drunken bet about making a table big enough to seat 40 guests from a single slice of tree-trunk

A self-moving chair that works even in the desert and looks like a cyberpunk spider.

It's kind of creepy.

What if we're all made of stardust?

After birth, the universe contained only hydrogen and helium. These two elements accounted for 98% of all matter in space. Only 2% was converted into all the other chemical elements found in nature.

Such conversions require temperatures and pressures typical of the stellar interior, or even supernova explosions. At the end of a star's life, these elements are ejected into space.

So all the iron atoms in your blood, the calcium in your bones, the oxygen in your lungs, the carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, sulfur, etc. are much earlier than Earth and were once part of giant stars.
