Eclectic junk from the four corners of the ‘Net. And pictures too!
I see that a professional camera company has figured out what amateur astronomers have known for a long time. If you take a photo of the same object lots of times, stack them together, pour on a smidg of math and presto! You get a nice sharp photo.

Hum, digital pictures can be tracked back to their comeras? Pretty cool, except that it looks like the technique can be messed up if the image has been altered. I think this will be a boon to UFO searchers as it may help prove if that digital snapshot of the bug eyed monsters are real or the product of a late night Photoshop fest.

Another week, another review of the the latest Dr. Who episode if you want your spoilers. I liked this one better than the last one, much more action but the foreshadowing button was pressed a tad too hard for my tastes at the end.

This kit allows you to make your own holograms in your own home, even with the lights turned on! You get enough self developing plates to create 20 images so you can let your imagination go and make holograms of just about anyhing. It’s amazing just to thing that 20 years ago doing this at home required more equipment just to dampen the vibrations than parts that come in this kit to make the entire ‘gram.
