Raylene taking a break and having a smoke just above the propane tanks. Nice.

I can't find a screenshot at the moment, but in Furiosa, when we see the valley of the Green Place, there are solar panels all up along the ridge.
One of the irritating things when working on older, as in not built for 30 years, engines, is finding gaskets.
Aftermarket Volvo water pump gaskets are too thin, and always cut wrong. So, you track down the kit with the good green Swedish gaskets. That are sealed in a package...
This was a 30 minute unboxing.
Here's a blurry shot of Saturn and one of its moons at roughly 225x through my telescope and iPhone 14.
J-58. My favorite Navy jet engine.
The man still puts on a world class show

Nice watch. encapsulated oil keeps accuracy and prevent shock.

Not on planes, but they certainly put it to use on ships. The pic below really shows how disorienting it can be. I think it's primary effect was to break up the lines of the ship to make it hard to determine what the ship was at a distance (e.g. cruiser, destroyer, patrol boat or merchant marine)
In reply to aircooled :
Yeah, I'm familiar with dazzle schemes. I had just never seen it used on an aircraft before, and I don't think I'd seen it much outside of WWI.
In reply to Duke :
I don't know how useful it would be on aircraft. Aircraft you aren't lobbing shells or torpedoes at to where you need to know the exact range.
Meanwhile, if you can't gauge how large a ship is, you can't gauge how far away it is, and your fire will be ineffective.
Unless you have radar...
