abandonedography: Project HARP (High Altitude Research Project)...

abandonedography:

Project HARP (High Altitude Research Project) was a joint initiative between the United States and Canada to research the use of ballistics to deliver objects into the upper atmosphere and beyond.

In lay terms, the project was established to create a cartoonishly large gun to shoot things into space. The sole fruit of this partnership, a massive toppled gun barrel, still remains on the Barbados test site.

Designed by mad ballistic engineer Gerald Bull, the gun itself was originally built from a 50 caliber naval cannon, like what might be seen on a battleship, and was later doubled to 100 caliber, making the gun too big for effective military application, but seemingly perfect for satellite delivery. Not-designed for delivering human subjects, the cannon fired smaller projectiles in a sabot that would protect the payload during the firing and would fall away as the satellite rose. At its apex, the gun was able to fire an object a staggering 112 miles into the sky, setting the 1963 world record for gun-launched altitude at 93 KM.

As the project continued, installing similar guns in further locations, the Barbados gun was abandoned in the late 1960s and left to rust on its original launch site. Looking more like a painted sewer pipe than a Godzilla-size gun barrel, the original Project HARP space gun can still be reached along the Barbados coast.

Charles Ramsey interview, rescuer of Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight in Cleveland (by WEWSTV)

I’m just catching up on everything that happened in Cleveland this week… and man, that is fucked up. The guy who rescued the ladies though, had a great report.

I like this guy. Mad respect.

Amber Mounts A Bike: My first rock drop!

Amber Mounts A Bike: My first rock drop!:

ambermountsabike:

This past weekend included a super fun ride. The weather has been fantastically warm and sunny, so my motivation to sit indoors and babble on the computer had been stunted. (woah, side note—-just as i was typing this an ant was crawling around my sleeve and headed up my sweatshirt arm hole…….now…

Safety-in-speed is definitely true! I had a similar experience this weekend in Southern Washington. I’m torn though, crashing going to slow stings the pride more, but I don’t wear a lot of pads and don’t wanna thrash my body if crash in the same spot going fast… It’s a tough call for me, time will tell.

WHY DID WE NEVER TALK ABOUT THIS

Jessica Rabbit is having none of your sexual assault

The fact that my mom let me watch this movie when I was a young ‘un, probably contributed heavily to the fact that I’m such a perv today. Oh well…

laatsteronde: I am driving from Boston to Portland, OR. I am...

laatsteronde:

I am driving from Boston to Portland, OR. I am currently in Billings Montana where a couple of hours ago my bikes (which were locked to the rack) were stolen. One is a 2011 Trek Fuel EX 8 in matte black size 15.5” with Mavic tubeless wheels and a Thomson Seatpost and shimano m540 pedals.

The other is my beloved Surly 1x1 in green size 15” with dirty dog skull stem, Chris King headset & single speed hubs lace to surly large marge rims custom painted red. The cranks and pedals are green. A “tommy cog” is bolted to the rear hub making it fixed gear.

PLEASE REPOST! Maybe someone in Montana has seen them and I can be reunited with the 2 things that bring me happiness.

Please message me with questions or advice about stolen bikes in the mid west.

A police report has been filed but my job in PDX starts soon so I must keep moving.

Thank you.
