NASA researchers have begun a series of flights using the agency’s DC-8 to study the effects of alternate biofuel on engine performance, emissions and aircraft-generated contrails at altitude. <br/><br/> The DC-8 is using conventional JP-8 jet fuel, or a 50-50 blend of JP-8 and an alternative fuel of hydroprocessed esters and fatty acids that comes from camelina plants. More than a dozen instruments mounted on the Falcon jet are characterizing the soot and gases streaming from the DC-8, monitoring the way exhaust plumes change in composition as they mix with air, and investigating the role emissions play in contrail formation. <br/><br/> Image Credit: NASA/Eddie Winstead</div> </blockquote> </blockquote>http://coolninteresting.tumblr.com/post/45154537678http://coolninteresting.tumblr.com/post/45154537678Mon, 11 Mar 2013 21:23:18 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/ff8bd8ce2314e0685573be0112fb076f/tumblr_mjird2V8Fk1qz4cuyo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://links.laughingsquid.com/post/45144087136/school-of-thrones-comedy-web-series-that-puts-a" class="tumblr_blog">laughingsquid</a>:</p> <blockquote><p><a href="http://laughingsquid.com/school-of-thrones-comedy-web-series-that-puts-a-high-school-spin-on-game-of-thrones/">School of Thrones, Comedy Web Series That Puts a High School Spin on ‘Game of Thrones’</a></p></blockquote>http://coolninteresting.tumblr.com/post/45154267810http://coolninteresting.tumblr.com/post/45154267810Mon, 11 Mar 2013 21:20:12 -0400<p><span>twitter: I&#8217;m eating waffles</span><br/><span>facebook: I like waffles</span><br/><span>LinkedIn: I have skills including eating waffles</span><br/><span>Foursquare: This is where I eat waffles</span><br/><span>YouTube: Watch me eat waffles</span><br/><span>Instagram: Look how pretty my waffles are before I eat them</span></p> <p><span>h/t anonymous.</span></p>http://coolninteresting.tumblr.com/post/42506025350http://coolninteresting.tumblr.com/post/42506025350Thu, 07 Feb 2013 10:19:04 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/93e991f863f6c0be3065c4a7c21c781a/tumblr_mghih41hMk1qz4cuyo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://links.laughingsquid.com/post/40287699368/vintage-style-smartphone-etiquette-posters">laughingsquid</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://laughingsquid.com/vintage-style-smartphone-etiquette-posters/">Vintage Style Smartphone Etiquette Posters</a></p> </blockquote>http://coolninteresting.tumblr.com/post/40344750767http://coolninteresting.tumblr.com/post/40344750767Sat, 12 Jan 2013 11:50:58 -0500<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/56974716" width="400" height="225" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/>http://coolninteresting.tumblr.com/post/40344617766http://coolninteresting.tumblr.com/post/40344617766Sat, 12 Jan 2013 11:49:05 -0500<iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/vmlBw-hzfwc?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p>A Beta session of one of the best pop acts out there, Alphabeat. </p>http://coolninteresting.tumblr.com/post/38852302974http://coolninteresting.tumblr.com/post/38852302974Wed, 26 Dec 2012 01:51:57 -0500alphabeatpopmusicscandipopdenmarkbeatsjams<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_me0fyd9rFH1qjvnc4o1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_me0fyd9rFH1qjvnc4o2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_me0fyd9rFH1qjvnc4o3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_me0fyd9rFH1qjvnc4o5_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_me0fyd9rFH1qjvnc4o4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://travelingcolors.tumblr.com/post/36457595799/flux-cocoon-in-lausanne-switzerland-by">travelingcolors</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><strong>Flux Cocoon in Lausanne, Switzerland</strong> | by <a href="http://www.allegory.ch/">allegory.ch</a></p> <blockquote> <p><small>Installed in the heart of the city of Lausanne, ’flux cocoon’ by <a href="http://www.allegory.ch/" title="">allegory</a> is one of the winning projects of the the city’s first light festival, Lausanne Lumières, which has been inaugurated on 23 nov.
