The Science Museum

A few pictures of the London Science Museum taken while I attended the Clark Award ceremony.

This is it, an actual, genuine difference engine.

Not one of Mika's better days. This crashed McLaren was included to demonstrate just how safe Formula 1 cars are. Mika could have walked away from a much worse shunt.

Raw power: this beam engine encapsulates the majesty of the steam age.

Loads of stuff. Yes, that is a V2 rocket in the background.

Granddaddy locomotive: Stephenson's Rocket.
