A high-speed photo of Operation Tumbler-Snapper’s tower shot. Photo via Wikimedia by STEVE WEINTZ In the spring of 1952, the U.S. government tested tactical nuclear weapons at the Nevada Proving Ground as part of Operation Tumbler-Snapper. It was the third nuke test series in 18 months at the Nevada site in an era of breakneck atomic development. At 4:00 in the morning on May 13, one of the Tumbler-Snapper bombs—code name “Fox”—was scheduled to go off. But the moment passed … and no atomic fi

Digital craftsmanship The form of the structure is reminiscent of an ornate layered cake – a reference to the emigration history of confectioners from Graubünden who exported their skills from here to the whole of Europe. Thirty-two sculptured white concrete columns rise up over four storeys, becoming thinner and more branched, before fanning out in an almost tree-like fashion to form the domed space at the top. The tower was designed by architect Michael Hansmeyer and ETH Professor of Digital

an Architectural Time Capsule revisited in new york The Nakagin Capsule Tower returns to public view this summer in a new light, as MoMA in New York opens an exhibition centered on its half-century lifespan. Built in Tokyo’s Ginza district in 1972 and dismantled in 2022, the structure was once among the clearest architectural expressions of Metabolism in Japan, a movement that sought to mirror natural growth and transformation in the built environment.

Modvion towers are built from laminated wood, where the wood itself stores carbon. In fact a wooden tower stores more carbon than it emits during production, transport and installation, making the tower carbon negative. Conventional towers are responsible for the biggest share of CO 2 emissions in a wind turbine due to the use of materials like steel and concrete, that are responsible for approximately 15% of global CO2 emissions*. Simply by switching the tower you can reduce emissions for the e

Honorable Mentions Shark FlexBreeze Hydro Go for $130: I love the original Shark FlexBreeze (above), so I was very excited to see Shark had released a rechargeable portable fan in seven colors, including ones not normally seen in fans like Lilac and Honeydew.

Lasko Wind Curve T42905 Oscillating Tower Fan Ry Crist/CNET I loved the sleek silhouette and wood grain accents of this Lasko tower fan. It was also the third-quietest fan that I tested, measuring just a few decibels noisier than the Honeywell. On top of that, it features Bluetooth, which lets you control the oscillating fan via an app on your phone. The problem is that the app is all you get as far as remote controls are concerned. That isn't ideal for a shared space, as the fan can only con

What just happened? A pivotal legal decision has emerged from Nevada, where a federal judge has questioned the constitutionality of a controversial investigative tool known as a "tower dump." This law enforcement method allows police to collect data en masse from cell towers, capturing information on every device that connects to a tower during a specific time window. The practice, which can sweep up the location and identifying details of thousands of cell phones, has been widely used to aid cr
