GRIMMJOE:
I was reading one of your thread when I slept off, even now I'm still wondering if I've woken up, the dream was horrible.

I'm flattered really.good morning

Saucekiddo99:
I have enjoyed your thread and also bagged an FTC on a prospective FP material. This is going to be a very good day for me, and for you too.

Thank you for making the best of today ,making it a great day , Smile ,the day gets better for you .

Saucekiddo99:
This ( Between 1899 and 1921, Charles Dellschau, a retired butcher who claimed to be a member of a secret society called the Sonora Aero Club, filled 13 notebooks with 2,500 drawings, paintings, and collages of ideas for air travel and airships now not just for traveling but giving us night light ) being in the article means the pictures were illustrated between the 1900's and the '20s. It was definitely talking about the 2000's because they were predicting leaps in technological advancement.
It is purely illogical for someone to predict such mammoth steps in technological advancements in the span of 9 or fewer years.

I am open to corrections.

No room for corrections ,seems perfectly phrased.

Saucekiddo99:
This picture defies everything Physics has called laws.
Thanks, OP, this picture just fueled my OCD in ways that are too complex to explain. My day is made.

one of the most complex drawing then even now , but then you find fascinating ? Fascinating.

Saucekiddo99:
The moment OP realizes that '20's' refers to '1920's' and not '2000's'...

what if that was exactly what the OP intended to use

The future liberals want

Challenges to the status quo and possibility of progressive social change was something periodicals reacted strongly to throughout the 19th century. In 1888, American journalist David Goodman Croly predicted that, “Women throughout the world will enjoy increased opportunities and privileges. Along with this new freedom will come social tolerance of sexual conduct formerly condoned only in men.”



Outrage at the havoc this future would wreak was reflected in a cartoon by Harry Grant Dart entitled “Why Not Go to the Limit?” Drawn at a crucial time for the women’s suffrage movement, he predicted where such progress would lead: bars full smoking, drinking, gambling women, ignoring their children and relegating men to the “Gentleman’s Parlour.”

In the early 1920s, a set of 100 postcards were discovered in an abandoned French factory basement, amongst shelves of dusty novelties and circus automatons. From there they sat in an Editions Renaud, a Parisian antique shop for over half a century, until they were bought in 1978 by author Christopher Hyde. They show views of the year 2000, with personal flying machines, telescopes that could capture distant planets, robot tailors, and farms under the sea.

The illustrations had been commissioned by manufacturer Armand Gervais to celebrate the “fin de siècle festival” of 1899. Illustrator Jean Marc Côté produced a set of cards inspired in part by Jules Verne, and in part by the automatons made by the Gervais company itself.

These guys take their flying seriously

Street 'baloon' lights



Enthusiasm about this emerging world of flight was not solely reserved to professional artists. Between 1899 and 1921, Charles Dellschau, a retired butcher who claimed to be a member of a secret society called the Sonora Aero Club, filled 13 notebooks with 2,500 drawings, paintings, and collages of ideas for air travel and airships now not just for traveling but giving us night light .

peacefull:
Thank you for sharing!
I will read and learn from here.
I appreciate you!!

hey you. How are us?

Great job, man.

I heard the "Great Red spot" is gradually fading away. In the next 20 years, it could all be gone and gone for good.

You heard that news as well, right?

I thought it would stay centuries still but of course most of the statistics would vary greatly.

SATURN


Most people know about the rings around Saturn, because they are the brightest and most colorful. These rings are made mainly out of ice particles orbiting the planet. While the rings themselves seem big, the particles are very small, usually no more than 10 feet (3 meters) wide.

Saturn is the second largest planet. It is the farthest planet from the Earth that can be seen without a telescope. It appears flat at the poles because its great rotational speed makes the middle of the planet bulge

Believed to represent the scythe of the god Saturn.

Origin of name:

Saturn was the ancient Roman god of agriculture.

Diameter:

74,900 miles (120,537 km).

Distance from Sun:

888 million miles (14,290 million km).

Length of year:

29.5 Earth years.

Number of Moons:

At least 56.

Neptune

Imagine being so good at math that you could figure out the location of a planet you had never even seen! That is what John C. Adams did in 1843 when he discovered Neptune.

Neptune was named after the Roman god of the sea because it is so far out in the deep “sea” of space. The name also fits because Neptune appears to be a beautiful bright blue because of the methane clouds that surround it.

It is the most distant planet from the Sun. It takes a very long time—165 years—to orbit the Sun. Neptune has made only one trip around the Sun since it was discovered.

Uranus

Uranus is the first planet so far away from the Earth that it can only be seen with the use of a telescope. When it was first discovered in 1781, scientists didn't know what they had found. As astronomers studied the object more closely, they discovered that it had a circular orbit around the Sun. They had found the seventh planet.

Uranus is so far from the Sun that it takes 84 years to complete an orbit of the Sun. It is the only planet that spins on its side, so each pole is tilted away from the Sun for half its orbit. That means each night and day lasts an amazing 42 years. Imagine staying awake that long! Of course, you'd also get a lot of time to catch up on your sleep!
