One way to live with rising sea levels in a future world is to turn obsolete oil and gas rigs into mini cities, off shore farms , or even hilly nature trails.As demands for fossil fuel drop, these huge structures can be towed to suitable parts of the Earth’s oceans ands transformed into self-sufficient communities.The idea comes from France-based XTU ArchitectsThe firm’s proposal is called X_Lands.The company says mankind’s appetite for fossil fuels has had a tremendous impact on the natural environment. But as the age of oil comes to an end and countries look at utilising renewable and greener energy sources, XTU has an idea for recycling the offshore platform.Because of their immense scale, oil rig structures have great potential for adaptation. The X_Lands idea imagines these constructions transformed into poetic, habitable and exotic projects, or in other words ‘X_Lands’.

The Hoover Dam Bypass
THE HOOVER DAM BYPASS
If one is looking to bypass something as structurally awe-inspiring as the Hoover Dam, you can be sure the resulting engineering feat will be just as impressive.
That is why the spectacle of the dam bypass bridge taking shape is a jaw-dropping sight to behold.
Officially named The Mike O'Callaghan-Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge, the structure spanning the Colorado River is on course to offer sightseers double the spectacle for their money.
Construction began in late January 2005 and the completion of the entire Hoover Dam Bypass Project is expected in June 2010 at an estimated cost of about $240 million.
The bridge section will stretch nearly 2,000ft over the Black Canyon, 1,600 feet south of the dam, and nearly 900-feet above the river. Its 1,060 foot twin-rib arch will be the longest concrete arch in America.
Its main job is to hook up the Arizona and Nevada Approach highways, thereby diverting the flow of vehicles from the actual dam itself.
The highway is the main link between Las Vegas and Phoenix, two cities that have seen population explosions since the dam was first completed in 1935.
It is thought that more than 17,000 cars and trucks will use the new bridge daily, although the number could grow by 50 percent in the next two decades.
Another more serious reason is the threat of a terrorist attack on the dam, something that saw trucks permanently banned from the road after September 11, 2001.
The bridge has been named in memory of Mike O'Callaghan, the Governor of Nevada in the 1970s and a veteran of the Korean War, and Pat Tillman, who gave up his career as a superstar American footballer to serve in the US Army in Afghanistan. He was killed there...

Stunning photos of the Scottish Highlands, Britain - 2016
FULL COPY: http://www.rexfeatures.com/nanolink/sjo1
A photographer has released a stunning series of photos that show the raw beauty of the Scottish Highlands.
Scotland-based photographer Camillo Berenos has spent the past few years travelling though the highlands, capturing breath-taking pictures along the way.
Camillo said: "Unlike many who undertake such projects, I haven't focused on a single defined geographical area, though the majority of my photographic forays have taken me to the Western and North-Western Highlands.
"From the vast but also familiar landscapes of Rannoch Moor and Glen Coe, to the relentlessly steep slopes of the hills in Kintail and the rugged and shapely mountain massifs of Torridon and Wester Ross, I have spent many hours in the hills, with specific destinations often primarily being determined by where the weather forecast looked most favourable."

NEWS - Die Nasa findet einen neuen Planeten - 40 Lichtjahre entfernt
OUTER SPACE Trappist-1 -- 21 Jul 2016 -- NASA finds potentially habitable planets just 40 light years away...This artist’s impression shows an imagined view from the surface one of the three planets orbiting an ultracool dwarf star just 40 light-years from Earth that were discovered using the TRAPPIST telescope at ESO’s La Silla Observatory and NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. Using NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers have conducted the first search for atmospheres around temperate, Earth-sized planets beyond our solar system and found indications that increase the chances of habitability on two exoplanets. Specifically, they discovered that the exoplanets TRAPPIST-1b and TRAPPIST-1c (pictured), approximately 40 light-years away, are unlikely to have puffy, hydrogen-dominated atmospheres usually found on gaseous worlds. The planets orbit a red dwarf star at least 500 million years old, in the constellation of Aquarius. They were discovered in late 2015 through a series of observations by the TRAnsiting Planets and PlanetesImals Small Telescope (TRAPPIST), a Belgian robotic telescope located at ESA’s (European Space Agency’s) La Silla Observatory in Chile -- Picture by NASA/Atlas Photo Archive (FOTO: DUKAS/PHOTOSHOT)

Japanese car giant Toyota has announced it is teaming up with the country’s space agency to investigate creating a vehicle for exploring the Moon.And it would be capable of having a range of more than 10,000 kilometres.It would be 6 metres long, 5.2 metres high and 3.8 metres wide, about the size of two microbuses, with an interior living space of 13 square metres.It would have a crew of two but be capable of accommodating four people in an emergency.The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency , known as JAXA and Toyota plan to accelerate their ongoing joint study of a manned, pressurized rover that employs fuel cell electric vehicle technologies. It would be carried to the lunar surface by a lander already built and ready to roll.Such a form of mobility is deemed necessary for human exploration activities on the lunar surface.Even with the limited amount of energy that can be transported to the Moon, the pressurized rover would have a total lunar-surface cruising range of more than 10,000 km.JAXA envisions launching such a rover as the Toyota concept vehicle into space in 2029.

These clusters would then be repeated in multiples of six to form a 12-hectare village for 1,650 residents, and then again to form an archipelago home to 10,000 citizens.Oceanix – a company that develops innovate ways to build on water – commissioned Denmark and US based architects Bjarke Ingels Group, known as BIG, to develop the concept, working with the Center for Ocean Engineering at the USA’s Massachusetts Institute of Technology It is part of UN-Habitat’s New Urban Agenda.The scheme was unveiled at the First UN High-level Roundtable on Sustainable Floating Cities, which Oceanix that also included UN-Habitat, a UN offshoot mandated to work with city development.Oceanix City is intended to provide a habitable, off-shore environment in the event of rising sea levels, which are expected to affect 90 per cent of the world's coastal cities by 2050.Each of the modules would be built on land and then towed to sea, where they would be anchored in place. The miniature islands are also designed to survive a category-five hurricane.Arrangements would be flexible so that the cities could be moved if water levels became too low.

New designs for a lunar lander to help US space agency NASA put man back onto the Moon has been unveiled.NASA’s, longtime space contractor Lockheed Martin has sow design concepts with the aim of getting to the Moon by 2024The US company says it can be ready within the next five years — as long as it has enough resources. The vehicle consists of two elements a lander portion that can travel down to the ground, and an ascent vehicle that can lift astronauts off the Moon’s surface. The lander is meant to travel to and from a new space station that NASA wants to build around the Moon called the Gateway. If all of these elements are created, astronauts would travel to the Gateway from Earth and then take the lander from the station to the Moon. The ascent vehicle would then bring them back to the station.
OPS: This Lockheed Martin concept show what an “Early Gateway” could look like along with the accent stage of a crewed lunar lander. The lander would be derived from the human-rated, flight-proven Orion spacecraft, which is also shown docked to the Early Gateway.

A supersonic business jet for whisking high-flyers around the world at up to twice the speed of sound has been unveiled.The aircraft would have room for up to 11 passengers and three crew.For business people where time is a precious commodity, the plane could fly at almost 2,500 kilometres an hour, around three times the speed of a conventional aircraft.New York to Paris would take less than three hours.More importantly it would be powered by hybrid electric and hydrogen engines which are already underdevelopment around the world.The aircraft has been named the Superb ZunZun which is a hummingbird found in the Caribbean.The plane, called SZZ for short, is the brainchild of Barcelona-based designer Oscar Vinals.He said the aircraft’s shape would also help eliminate one of the biggest problems with supersonic flight, the sonic boom

A supersonic business jet for whisking high-flyers around the world at up to twice the speed of sound has been unveiled.The aircraft would have room for up to 11 passengers and three crew.For business people where time is a precious commodity, the plane could fly at almost 2,500 kilometres an hour, around three times the speed of a conventional aircraft.New York to Paris would take less than three hours.More importantly it would be powered by hybrid electric and hydrogen engines which are already underdevelopment around the world.The aircraft has been named the Superb ZunZun which is a hummingbird found in the Caribbean.The plane, called SZZ for short, is the brainchild of Barcelona-based designer Oscar Vinals.He said the aircraft’s shape would also help eliminate one of the biggest problems with supersonic flight, the sonic boom
