The Spores of These Ancient Plants Literally Hop Along on Four Little Legs These are horsetails. They are hundred-and-fifty-million-year-old plants and the last of their kind. Instead of seeds, they give off spores. And instead of flying or swimming, these spores use humidity to walk, or...

Like its spiritual, and obvious (looking at the design), successor the Bird of Prey it was most likely funded partially by Boeing and commissioned by them to study up on emerging tech to gain a competitive advantage in upcoming US projects. I'd expect funding to come from the US military as...

It's been a while since I contributed here, so let's get the ball rolling again! ... Never-Seen Photos Of Boeing's 1960s Stealth Jet Concept That Predicted The Future For years, all the aviation world knew about Boeing’s secret stealth project from the 1960s was limited to a name and a...

Great Pyrs are superb guard dogs, that's their historical usage, that's in their DNA. They aren't aggressive though, but they will let you know if something's amiss. Naturally alert, imposing, huge, often reaching around 200 lbs., these dogs excel as guards. Guarding is a natural behavior for a...

Yes... but why?

:what: I drive a ten-speed bike and the Misses drives my a**:lol:. We've no plans to get a Telsa. Too small to fit our dogs anyway. No a car anyway, but I could really use a Powerwall. Australia is the First Country to Get Tesla's Powerwall Battery

Thanks:cheers:. Nice to see you again too. Unfortunately I'll be spending all my time in the Member's Section.
