Dodging the Roadkill: Why We Crash
April 27, 2019 | 
Clarksville, TN – Anybody who has ever crashed on a motorcycle is lucky to have “lived to tell the tale.” The one thing I’ve learned about laying it down is the questions about “what happened” never go away.
“But I’m a good rider” we say. “I wasn’t doing anything stupid” we say. The reality is just that “shit” happens. Both times I’ve laid a bike down, it was “pilot error.” I simply was trying to do too much and lost control. Bottom line.
If you’ve ever been hit by another vehicle, or a deer, or simply something in the road, you have a clear cut explanation for your accident. Most of the time, there are questions. I second guessed myself for weeks about it.

NASA records Space Launch System Booster test with High Speed, Dynamic Camera
NASA Headquarters
Washington, D.C. – While thousands turned out to watch NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) recently complete a full-scale test of its booster, few were aware of the other major test occurring simultaneously. NASA’s High Dynamic Range Stereo X (HiDyRS-X) project, a revolutionary high-speed, high dynamic range camera, filmed the test, recording propulsion video data in never before seen detail.
The HiDyRS-X project originated from a problem that exists when trying to film rocket motor tests. Rocket motor plumes, in addition to being extremely loud, are also extremely bright, making them difficult to record without drastically cutting down the exposure settings on the camera. Doing so, however, darkens the rest of the image, obscuring other important components on the motor.

NASA’s Mars Curiosity Rover gives high pixel View of Mars
Pasadena, CA – A billion-pixel view from the surface of Mars, from NASA’s Mars rover Curiosity, offers armchair explorers a way to examine one part of the Red Planet in great detail.
The first NASA-produced view from the surface of Mars larger than one billion pixels stitches together nearly 900 exposures taken by cameras onboard Curiosity and shows details of the landscape along the rover’s route.
This is a reduced version of panorama from NASA’s Mars rover Curiosity with 1.3 billion pixels in the full-resolution version. It shows Curiosity at the “Rocknest” site where the rover scooped up samples of windblown dust and sand. Curiosity used three cameras to take the component images on several different days between October 5th and November 16th, 2012. (Image credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/MSSS)
