The dining area at the corner of the square is demarcated by a wall that separates the kitchen from it with a circulation path still linking to the kitchen. Opposite the wall that separates this space from the kitchen is a sliding glass door that opens up to the northwesterly facing balcony. Standing here, one is offered a magnificent panoramic view of the Melbourne city skyline

Space is the most hostile environment we will ever explore. Even a single five-hour spacewalk requires months of training, and a vast technical backup to keep it safe. The astronauts and cosmonauts who live in space are there for only a few weeks or months; if we want to travel into deep space it could take years. First we'll have to find out just how long the human body can survive in a weightless environment. In zero gravity, four pints of body fluid rush from the legs to the head where it stays for the duration of the mission. Astronauts often feel as if they have a permanent cold, and disorientation can become a major problem. In space there's no physical sensation to let you know when

In Stanley Kubrick’s movie, 2001: A space Odyssey, the audience was awed by the stunning special effects and the relationship of man and his computer. In 1968, movie goers were shocked to see the cinematic quality that Kubrick displayed, however, the narrative captures the event of a computer overhauling a space ship and causing harm to innocent humans. One key sequence shows the power shift from, the computer to the human, using Kubrick’s camera work to provide evidence of the climatic event ensuing.

Through the space program we can measure all sorts of thing about our planet, like air pressure and ocean water temperature. The technology that NASA has developed helps us in everyday life. Satellites relay TV and communications signals. Information gathered in shuttle development prompted improvements in smoke detectors.

Additionally, a home should encase and display things that you love. Without these qualities, the feeling of “home” does not exist.

The internet is a tool which is still in its infancy. It appears to me that the explosion of the internet resulted in an incredible addiction to it, and rightfully so. Its amazing. But in my experience, people are separating from it because of that very recognition. They are aware of the level of attention it requires and are learning how to use it as a tool instead of being the tool used by the internet. It is true that the web requires a level of multitasking to engage with it, but the information one obtains from that tool can be further investigated once disconnected and in a space that allows for deeper deliberation. The addition of sharing ideas around the world with other intellectuals is absolutely amazing and provides an incredible space for critical conversation without having to be in the same physical space. While it may be distracting at times, I believe that the information the internet provides ultimately increases our ability to critically think.
