This week, I am continuing to experiment. I am not creating chemical weapons but doing some experiments with various types of imagery. I shall continue to experiment. Some will be bizarre.
I am cursing a few Western politicians and working on a theme: surveillance - try 1

Jordan is a riot. This went up seven hours ago. So far so good. If you notice don’t say what it is. Let’s see how long it clocks…

Messing about with what was originally a #telespringar beat that got out of hand, originally to check if I was able to sync the #sonicpotionslxr drum machine and #korgvolcabass to traditional #asynchronousrhythms Now I can't even find the one in this beat 
Weather and Climate Experiments by Pamela Walker, 2009
Study of the weather and climate helps students understand weather conditions and the science behind weather research. Temperature, barometric pressure, wind, and precipitation are just a few of the types of data routinely collected and analyzed by meteorologists.

Thoughts: Useful list for PhD students and ECRs to check they have most things covered.

Well, sweet potato bread, attempt one, wherein I failed the basic rule of experiments; write down what you did. But I’m not sure how you could actually make a foolproof recipe because each potato is going to be different in texture and wetness, so you kinda just have to do it by feel. Anyway, this one was 1 large roasted, peeled and smushed sweet potato, about 3 cups of high protein flour, 2.5 tsp yeast, 1 tsp fine grain salt, 1 tablespoon raw sugar. About 7 oz of warm water, added an ounce or so at a time. 1st rise, an hour, second rise about 45 minutes, bake 425f for 25ish minutes to internal temp of 210f.
Changes I would make, longer second rise, lower temp to 400 and bake a little longer, or sheild the top at 425.
Some shots hot off the camera. Around 30,000 Volts from a Cockroft Walton multiplier.
In shots 2 and 3, a drawing pin has been placed atop the dome and a grounded needle held so it creates corona discharge, rather than a spark.
When the needle is held to the side, the electron 'wind' off the dome bends the discharge into a gentle arc.

He he. The Cockroft Walton kit is fun! It's only a toy at 30-40kV, but gives quite a sting when I touch it!
25 second exposure of sparks over to a ground wire moved about to different points.
Next, a biggerer version, I think! 
There is always that one config setting that no one understands but is somehow vital to the experiment #Science #Experiments
The Strange Experiments of Henry Cavendish
Cavendish was an idiosyncratic scientist who conducted fascinating experiments, such as “weighing” the Earth and splitting water into its constituent elements.

NASA has selected the first science #experiments that astronauts will bring to the #moon as part of the Artemis III mission.
This mission, currently planned for 2026, will mark the first time humans have walked on the lunar surface since the Apollo 17 mission in 1972.
The first of the three scientific instruments is called 
In this experiment, astronauts will grow plants on the surface of the moon, observing their ability to photosynthesise and grow, and how they respond to the stress of lower gravity and space radiation.
This won’t be the first time plants have been grown in space – astronauts have been growing vegetables aboard the International Space Station for a decade, and China’s Chang’e 4 mission sprouted seeds on the moon in 2019.
Those seeds didn’t last long, though, so if all goes well, LEAF will give us our first glimpse of the full growth cycle of plants on the moon.
The second experiment is the
Characterising how the ground moves during those quakes will help researchers understand the underground structure of the area.
The final instrument, called the
Ice bound to dust particles drastically increases the ability of the soil to conduct electricity, so the LDA will help the hunt for deposits of frost and measure changes in the soil as the sun rises and sets over the lunar surface.
“These three deployed instruments were chosen to begin scientific investigations that will address key Moon to Mars science objectives,” said NASA’s Pam Melroy in a statement.
The ultimate goal of the Artemis programme is to lay the groundwork for a long-term human presence on the moon, which will, in turn, teach us how to prepare for crewed missions to Mars.
Locals are fiercely opposing the plan, we can create a global scandal and get monkey #BreedingFacilities banned for good.

While scientific advances are important, animal testing isn't that effective -- more than 90% of drugs tested on animals,
