Lego Secret Vault Contains All Sets In History - Lego - Gizmodo

http://gizmodo.com/5018990/lego-secret-vault-contains-all-sets-in-history I have to confess that life hasn't been very good lately. Work around the clock, not enough free time, trying to have kids and crashing badly... all while moving to a country I don't particularly like, away from my best friends and family. Maybe that's why visiting Lego's Memory Lane-the secret vault guarding almost every Lego set ever manufactured-touched me in a way I didn't expect.

Escher's "Relativity" in LEGO

Because The LEGO Company get paranoid about this sort of thing let me make it clear that I have no affiliation with them, that my views are my own and do not necessarily represent theirs, and so on. So if you think any of this is official you are as deluded as they are. Click on the picture or here for a bigger version (about 410K) Daniel Shiu and I worked on this as a joint project after we finished our rendition of Escher's "Ascending and Descending" , making it our fourth Escher picture rendered in LEGO.

Bad Movie Physics: A Report Card

Click to view Space epics almost always play fast and loose with science, treating the laws of physics like suggestions. Sound in space, unprotected bodies splatting in vacuum, and alien planets that all look just like Calabasas. But some movies dismember Newton and Einstein with way more gusto than others. We rated 18 movies based on how many laws of physics they mangled, and here's our report card. To some extent, it's understandable that space adventures play fast and loose with physics. After all, who wants to watch Han Solo spend years on the journey to Alderaan, only to find that the planet has twice Earth gravity and he can barely stand up, much less swagger? http://io9.com/367792/bad-movie-physics-a-report-card
