So, kurz vorm Frühstück fertig: die #Kaustik des Parabolspiegels.

Links ein #Buckyball als "Gegenstand", mittig das "ideale Bild" (gemäß Konstruktionsregeln für ein perfektes System). 4 Strahlen gehen aus, werden reflektiert, leicht hinter dem idealen Bild gebündelt.

Das rote Band gibt nun die Bildpositionen aller Objekte an, also "die Verzerrungen im Foto".

Currently top-50 (among 364 DI teams) in offensive efficiency — and riding a 28-game home winning streak. #BuckyBall https://x.com/SamfordMBB/sta…

I still haven’t had much chance to carve this year, or catch up with the #PrinterSolstice prompts, so until I can, here’s a carbon-themed print from my portfolio: Millie Dresselhaus (née Spiewak; November 11, 1930 – February 20, 2017). She was a professor of physics and electrical engineering at MIT, known as the Queen of Carbon Science.

Happy birthday to Millie Dresselhaus (née Spiewak; November 11, 1930 – February 20, 2017). She was a professor of physics and electrical engineering at MIT, known as the Queen of Carbon Science.

In this linocut I've shown her in front of a carbon nanotube. She was recognized for her work on graphite, graphite intercalation compounds, fullerenes (a form of carbon known as buckyballs, 🧵1/n

I think I already answered this. I believe they are "#BuckyBall" joints.

Slide some sticks or tree limbs into them to easily build the framework for a portable shelter.

The protruding "balls" would make it easier to slide the completed structure into place across the ground.

Much easier to carry around than entire tents with poles & canvas.

(If I'm right, they predate Buckminster Fuller's invention by a couple of thousand years.) 🤔

Der Buckyball musste heute endlich mal gebaut werden. Teamarbeit eines Oberstufenkurses in der Chemiestunde.

Basic Post-It notes are square, or close enough to it, to use as origami paper, and they make great PHiZZ units: https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=phizz+units

I made a #buckyball over the course of a week or two while waiting for code to compile or other build tools to run. (Yes, many of our tools are....verrrry....slow....)
