Did you know that New York City's original Pennsylvania Station was demolished in 1963, even though it was one of America's most impressive public buildings?
Opened in 1910, the station was designed by the architectural firm McKim, Mead & White.
Its enormous waiting room was inspired by the ancient Roman Baths of Caracalla, with towering columns, high ceilings, and natural light.
But by the early 1960s, the railroad was struggling financially, and the valuable land above the station offered an opportunity for redevelopment.
The station was demolished and replaced by a new complex beneath Madison Square Garden.
Its destruction caused such public outrage that it helped inspire New York's architectural preservation movement.
Writing about the demolition, architecture critic Vincent Scully famously observed:
“One entered the city like a god. One scuttles in now like a rat.”

🚨 SCIENTISTS JUST CREATED A MATERIAL THAT BREAKS THE RULES OF HEAT
Researchers at North Carolina State University engineered a layered material that does something unusual: it blocks heat almost like an advanced aerogel, while remaining mechanically rigid.
At room temperature, it conducts heat at only about 0.04 watts per meter-kelvin—among the lowest reported for a dense, nonporous solid. Yet its stiffness reaches about 7.7 gigapascals, far stronger than many plastics, foams and aerogels.
The secret lies between its layers. Organic molecules were engineered into a hybrid perovskite structure, making it difficult for the tiny vibrations that carry heat to travel through the material.
Even more interesting, the material can be deposited as a thin film over large areas, potentially opening doors for advanced thermal insulation and electronics.
A material that is both strong and almost impossible for heat to pass through could change how we control heat in future technologies.

My personal friend which I planted as a child a long time ago. For 60 years he has been producing oxygen and binding Co² for everyone. He is not paid for this and deserves respect like any other tree. Proud😊

Prufrock-MB2 is ready to mine in Nashville! MB2 commissioning is complete, including the brief 11 rpm rotation shown here.
Will MB2 catch up to MB1, who had quite the head start?
And Prufrock-MB3 ships in August!

This woman just shattered everything I thought I knew about quantum physics in 60 seconds 😱
"Quantum physics isn’t just science, it’s logical spirituality. You don’t attract what you want. You align with what you already are."
Every version of you already exists in the quantum field - The wealthy you, the happy you, the successful you.
"The quantum field doesn’t respond to begging. It responds to certainty."
Your most powerful tool is visualization.
‘Our minds don’t know the difference between imagination and reality.’
Time isn’t linear, you can pull your future into the now & re-code your past.
You are not a person inside the universe.
You ARE the universe experiencing itself through you.
"Go live like the miracle you are.”

A Venezuelan woman tells the leftists and woke right to STFU about Maduro and free oil.
“Fear not because Cuba and Iran have been receiving free Venezuelan oil for decades in exchange for protecting the dictator that has been exiling, killing us, and disappearing us for 26 years.”
