Science and Imperial War museum Pics [NF56K]

Post by The Grim Squeaker »

This seemed more suitable for OP, it's a bunch of photos from the Imperial War Museum, and the London Science museum (with a focus on "Wallace and Gromit's Cracking contraptions", Dan Dare, and Birth of the modern world (lots of groundbreaking technology with computer guts galore!).

AMP worthy, surely? :wink:

I think I'll have to go the Science Museam again when I go in december,as when I went last time I went with someone who was incapable of reading anything, so we rushed all over the place. Thankfully the person I'm going with this time likes to take their time, huzzah! Gotta love the Kensington tube stop - four museams all within five minutes walk.

Now I'm very tempted to take a trip into London to have a look at that Science Museum exhibit, as I live just down the tracks in Reading.

What's the story behind the Australian automatic-suicide machine? I have a terrible fear the reply is going to involve aboriginal people...

Are you planning on going to the Natural History Museums new Darwin Centre? It would be cool to see some pictures of that.

Apparently it was legal for a few months in central-NW Australia and was used a number of times, the screen displayed a number of questions for the...user.

The Darwin center seemed closed when I was there, and I didn't have time for the Nat Hist museum. I'm back in Israel now anyway, I was only in London for a weekend in between flights from Iceland :D
