Space airbus: Paris Air Show

transSpace everyday flies. Looks like stupid for the first sight , but it's not. Actually , it's not the first hot try to make such a kind of trip come true. But this one is going to be completely made , because this project has a purse of 1 000 000 000 euro and giants of airlines and airbus makers such as Astrium
Airbus - the main boeing "enemy"
Eurocopter - helicopters producy
Ariane - rockets
Eurofighter - you understand what it mean )


The conception of this buisness-jet-like vehicle was promoted on a VIP-party decided to Paris Air Show , which starts today , June 18th. The full-scale model and concept 3d images were shown there . It will fly away from simple aiports , no cosmoports will be needed. As plan reaches the 12 km altitude it turns on rocket engines and get the 60 km crossbar just in 80 seconds ! Then reactive engines turn off and vehicle reaches 100 km height simply amain. And this territoria isn't belong to Earth , it's Space.
Boatful will have to unstrap seatbelts o feel zero gravity effect for 5 minutes , it's amazing ! And the cost amazing too - 200 000 euro , but it's much cheaper than another kinds of that trips.

By the way , design of this plane in the pipeline by world famous designer Marc Newson , he made the design of another concept aircraft - Kelvin 40. google it , i'm too lazy to make a link :P

Illuminators considered to be 30% bigger than simple airbus' , and there will be 15 of them , just for 4 passengers . So areals will be oooverwhelmy beautiful i think. Millons of people want to watch their planet from space since they were young .
Design concept and EADS engeneers dwells will continue till rhe end of this year , and there will be two ways of using it. And the 2nd way isn't belong to the war-sphere . It's for always-in-a- hurry-buisenessmans . Due to "space method" time of travel will be decreased a lot . Project has a lot of investors , so the first flies probably be in a 2011-2012.

Weird wicked laser



Imagine a pocket laser , which really has a Power so you can melt plastic with it , you can get the paper burnt , you can slash with it and also light your cigar from 10ft distance . But i do not want you to smoke , why ? You ' ll know a bit later :)
There are lasers of different light wavelenght - red , blue , green. Actually , company makes green lasers the most power in seria .The green lasers create a beam you can see for miles in dark conditions. When people buy this lasers they are so proud of what their new gadgets can do, they can't help posting a video of their laser in action.
Red laser - high-powered laser product is actually the same device the US military uses to disorient and intimidate the enemy. Overkill? Maybe. Fun? Totally.
And , finally the blue lasers - the most difficult to made , scientiests tried to make them for years!!! And you can take it in your pocket now , for sure. Oh , and it can turn light from violet to red , imagine ?)

By the way , green laser visible in 193 km range , and it's still harmful in such a distances . The most powerful lasers are visible even in shiny weather .
If you got hooked - read my lips :
These laser devices are Wicked lasers. W i c k e d. Check it out.  And they are the strongest laser gadgets you could buy in the world if you are not a military man )

P.S. Somebody told me that young boy was self-killed when he was looking on the mirror and put the laser light in it. OMG i don't think it's a joke ! [wickedlasers.com]

Concept Volkswagen Golf GTI W12 650

The Volkswagen Golf GTI W12 650 was revealed in Austria at the 2007 Wörthersee car show which caters to Volkswagen and Audi enthusiasts.
Like the Audi TT Clubsport Quattro which was also revealed at the show the GTI W12 650 is performance orientated. Instead of the usual engine options the GTI W12 650 is powered by a mid-mounted, longitudinal positioned, 6.0 litre twin-turbo W12 unit developing 650 horsepower and 554 lb-ft of torque. Mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission driving the rear wheels the GTI W12 650 concept is capable of a 0-60 mph time of just 3.7 seconds and a 201 mph top speed. Enough to show up the vast majority of supercars.
The goal of the GTI W12 650 development team was to create a car which despite its enormous performance potential and technical differences could be clearly identified as a Volkswagen GTI. Therefore the GTI W12 650 uses the headlights, doors, bonnet and the tail lamps from the production car.
The biggest problem was supplying the centrally mounted engine with sufficient air, and also producing sufficient downforce at the rear axle without greatly altering the silhouette of the GTI W12 650 from the original. Therefore the C-columns were redesigned and the rear side windows run inward in such a way that they lead air to the engine.
To reduce rolling resistance and weight the wheels of the Volkswagen GTI W12 650 are made from a light alloy, and because of their large size a specially engineered tire had to be made.
On the inside the Volkswagen Golf GTI W12 650 features alcantara leather, race-look transparent "Flip UP" switch guards for vital functions, extra gauges and fire extinguishers integrated in place of the glove compartment.

Wallypower 118


If you watched "The island" movie , then you saw nice yacht .Actually , it is not a dream , this yacht exists in our world :)


It is a luxury high performance superyacht which brings technology and fashionable design together in perfect harmony. So much so that the 118 WallyPower won the MYDA (Millennium Yacht Design Award). The Wallypower 118 is a unique yacht with marked characteristics like the vertical bow, lateral air inlets, and angular deck superstructure. The sleek minimalist lines of the 118 WallyPower are the result of an extensive research and development program that included water tank testing at the SSPA facility in Goteborg, Sweden, and wind tunnel testing at the Ferrari facility in Maranello, Italy.
