  • Radio Telescope: The Mars Antenna in the Mojave Desert, California. Goldstone Deep Space Communications Complex. Standing 24 stories tall, the Mars antenna is the largest dish at Goldstone. It was originally built as a 64-meter-diameter (210-foot) antenna and received its first signal from the Mariner 4 mission to Mars. By 1988, the Mars dish, along with the 64-meter antennas in Spain and Australia, was upgraded to 70 meters (230 feet). These 70-meter antennas increase the receiving power of the Deep Space Network. (1983)

  • Engineers on a radio antenna under construction with rainbow on the distance. The Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) is a system of 10 radio telescopes controlled remotely from the Array Operations Center in Socorro, New Mexico. The antennas are spread across the United States from St. Croix in the Virgin Islands to Mauna Kea on the island of Hawaii, making it the world's largest dedicated, full-time astronomical instrument..This antenna at Pie Town, New Mexico, is now linked with the Very Large Array via fiber optics. It is the first part of the planned Expanded Very Large Array...(1988)

  • Simulated lightning strike to a TV antenna wire, exploding the wire. Institution for Hopspänningsforkning, Husbyborg, Uppsala, Sweden. Engineer - Eric Löfberg. (1991).Lightning occurs when a large electrical charge builds up in a cloud, probably due to the friction of water and ice particles. The charge induces an opposite charge on the ground, and a few leader electrons travel to the ground. When one makes contact, there is a huge backflow of energy up the path of the electron. This produces a bright flash of light, and temperatures of up to 30,000 degrees Celsius.

  • Mark Tilden's robot: the analog nervous net- "Unibug 1.0" walking on the great Sand Dunes National Monument  in Colorado. Amazingly, the autonomous robot walked up to the flower and stopped exactly with it's antenna in the center of the flower which had just bloomed after a recent rain. Robo sapiens Project.

  • Inside the control room of a 25-meter diameter dish which makes up the Very Large Array (VLA) radio telescope near Socorro, New Mexico. The VLA is the world's largest radio telescope array, consisting of 27 dish antennae, each one 25 meters in diameter. The dishes can be moved to various positions along the arms of a Y-shaped railway network; two of these railway arms are 21 km in length, the third 19 km. The data obtained by the dishes are combined by computer to form a single radio image, so that the 27 antennae in effect form one single giant radio dish. (1984). Radio Telescope. Los Alamos, New Mexico. (1988)
