Rocket Moon Launch at World Science Festival NYU Polytech 2012

For the 2012 World Science Festival at Innovation Square, Metrotech Center there will be an Augmented Reality Rocket Launch which will place a flag and a colonist on the moon. The project is sponsored by the international group Manifest.AR. Mark Skwarek and John Craig Freeman from the group have spear headed the effort and will be in communication with the rocket in real time throughout the launch. Images from the rockets flight will be beamed to earth and post on the net for the public to view in real-time. The rocket will take off from Metrotech Commons in Brooklyn, New York at 4:00. As most know the general earth moon cross time is 3 days but because of free enterprise in the aerospace sector and the incredible advances in augmented reality technology Manifest.AR is sited as saying the crossing can be made in 3 hours.  At 7:00 the general public should be able to view a Live Stream from  U.S.A. satellite Galaxy-11 as the colonist lands on the moon.

The general public is allowed to view the launching from the safety zone. For safety purposes smart phones or tablets must be used to view the experience.

There will be a jumbo tron screen with a live feed from U.S.A. satellite Galaxy-11 which will be at optimal viewing distance from the moon during the time of the lunar landing.The landing will be televised live on the jumbo tron screen in real-time.A smart phone or tablet will be required for viewing although visitors without will have an opportunity to look at a group device.More information may be found here --http://rocketmoonlaunch.blogspot.com/Manifest.AR is an independent aerospace developer working with augmented reality. We make the impossible reality every day.

AR Archaeology @ NYU Polytech! Live dig at World Science Fair!!!

[artist's visualization of what the dig might look like]

Skwarek shown during second find.

http://worldsciencefestival.com/events/innovation_square

Amateur archaeologist and NYU Polytech faculty Mark Skwarek made a potentially promising find in the Brooklyn, NY, Metrotech Commons during the removal of one of the public artworks.  Skwarek, who grew up as a novice fossil hunter noticed a curiously shaped stone in some of the removal debris that had been dug up. Upon closer inspection the stone looked to be chalcedony in composition and had a crude semicircular pattern along it's edge. Skwarek had been on Native American digs before on the East Coast and it seemed that this might be a crude tool. He carefully collected and documented the artifact.  He then sent it to some of his past friends still involved in the field. It didn't take long before he received a very enthusiastic response.  All three archaeologists agreed that it was most likely a tool. Skwarek rushed back to Metrotech Commons and within 10 minutes he recovered what looked to be like a second artifact [pictured above at the time of the find/it was raining]. With the artifacts in hand and the recommendations of the tenured archaeologists Skwarek approached the administration with a formal request to conduct a larger excavation of the site. After some deliberation he was given permission to conduct a larger scale dig at the Metrotech Commons. The timing of the excavation and it's unveiling to the public will be centered around the World Science Festival 2012. There will be a multimedia component to the dig and viewers are strongly encouraged to bring smart phones and tablets [iPhone 3Gs or newer, iPad2 and most androids] for an enhanced viewing experience.

Super Bullzilla-!!!

They said it was statistacly impossible. It looks like they were wrong!

Satellite imagery reveals shocking footage of a heat signature that could only be compared with the "Bullzilla" Wall Street incident of Fall 2011. Leading scientists have begun to speculate that a  new Super Bullzilla has been making his way across the ocean floor toward the pacific coast of Asia!!!

 [an artist rendering of what Super Bullzilla "might" look like] Bullzilla is bigger and angrier than ever!

The heat signature is much larger than the original Bullzilla which has the golobal community on edge...
