What's the purpose of the tin foil on the lab equipment?
reason 1:
in order to get to ultra high vacuum, on scales well over a billion times below atmospheric pressure, we have to heat the chambers to high temperatures, 200C/400F, to release any junk that may cling to the surface of the space. if theres anything like water vapor inside the chambers, heating the walls forces it to detach from the metal and into the open volume, where it can then be captured and collected by a vacuum pump. Pumps are great at pulling things from the air, but they cant act as scrubbers on the walls.
but this heating has to be done uniformly. you can imagine that if i only heat 70% of the surface, then all that junk on the remaining 30% is going to stick around and get uncaptured, and furthermore if any floating junk lands there it can just accumulate and accumulate, instead of being pushed back out.
The foil is there to make sure the heat evenly distributes along the surface and avoid that issue, just like baking a casserole haha. We dont want any cold spots that would stay dirty, or any hot spots that would damage equipment (we can demagnetize the magnets used in our sample grabbers, and people in an adjacent lab melted an O-ring doing this very thing earlier this week haha).
it doesnt make sense to have to constantly remove and reapply the tin foil, so once it gets wrapped for a bake, the foil in areas that dont need to move that much tend to stick around.
reason 2:
theres some other bits and bobs that stay wrapped in foil to reduce electrical noise. when i do data collection, i'm looking for electrical signals on the order of pico-amps, so 10^-12. real itty bitty. if theres too much background noise from other electronics, it will completely overwhelm that signal and I get nothing but garbage. by wrapping certain electronics that must stay on during an experiment, i can create a janky faraday cage that prevents their electrical signals from interfering too much.
also another third secret reason is if i have to do equipment testing or probe certain voltages/currents, i often need to connect to an electrical ground....and being able to stab my ground probe into a mass of tin foil is a lot easier than having to constantly hold it on the metal lol.

Knightstone Household: Chapter 8, Part 5
Today Silas heads off for his first day of school, Suzanna works with Pollock to try reach more milestones and Silas wants a real piano.
Tumblr media
Nicknames Suzanna is Mummy or Starlight Adam is Pops or My Heart Silas is Starshine Pollock is Pol or Moondust If Pollock is trying to babble real words they will be in brackets
Adam: Did you let your brother get a good sleep? He’s got a big day today
Pollock: Ye ra po (yes Pops)
Silas is sitting having breakfast still in his disguise.
Suzanna: Are you going to wear your disguise to school
Silas: Probably Mummy. I don’t want to hide that I’m an alien but for my first few days I’d rather not stick out
Suzanna: Your choice. We'll see you when you get home okay
Silas: Yes Mummy, look after Pol for me
Suzanna: *chuckles*
Tumblr media
Adam: So he’s been fed and changed, all set
Suzanna: Thanks Adam
Adam: No worries, I just will be busy cleaning before my shift
Suzanna: Of course, now Moondust, who’s ready to try some… ice cream!
Adam: Wait... Ice cream for breakfast?
Suzanna: Not breakfast. You said it yourself, he’s already had milk
Adam: I don’t know Pollock, sounds like she’s trying to fatten you up already
Suzanna: Nothing wrong with a chubby infant Adam
Tumblr media
Suzanna goes to get some carrots to try next while Adam begins to vacuum the house. Pollock wonders what is going on and in the end is overwhelmed by the noise, bursting into tears.
Suzanna: Do you have to vacuum just there Adam
Adam: You know queuing it for nooks and crannies can be tricky
Suzanna: Come on then Pollock, we’ll head outside and let Pops clean
Suzanna scoops Pollock up and Adam calls after them.
Adam: Sorry son, good luck calming down
Tumblr media
Suzanna: You can go here with all the stars and mummy will just pump before she tends the garden. Go on Pollock, touch the stars
Pollock: *giggles* Noo be star (I’m with the star)
Suzanna: You said star? You said star! Well done Moondust, you’ll be talking in no time
Pollock: Fo star um (Stars are fun Mummy)
Tumblr media
Inside, Adam makes sure to get rid of the basement dust. Outside, Pollock spends time happily batting the stars around before switching to some solo tummy time. Suzanna happily tends her garden but can’t help wondering what’s happening at the lab while she’s using her watcher given maternity leave.
Tumblr media
Pollock has his nap while Adam goes to work but Suzanna wakes him up just before Silas gets home.
Suzanna: Let’s have some milk then we can go see how Silas did on his first day, huh? Won’t that be exciting
Pollock: *burps*
Suzanna: I knew you would agree
Pollock: *giggles*
Tumblr media
Suzanna: How was your day Starshine
Silas: Pretty good. Although my teacher told me off for not doing an assignment
Suzanna: ...but it was your first day
Silas: Exactly! They didn't like me pointing that out. Anyway we did some art after lunch and I made you something
Suzanna: You did? Okay let’s have a look here. A unicorn picture? Oh it’s a masterpiece. We’ll have to make sure we show your Pops huh, he'll be impressed
Tumblr media
*grinding noise*
Suzanna: Stupid washing machine. I have to go fix it, could you watch Pollock for a minute? Unless you have homework
Silas: I’ve already done my homework Mummy
Pollock: He la boo (Hi brother)
Silas: Hey Pol. Have you been good today? I bet you missed me, I missed you *blows raspberry*
Tumblr media
Silas takes a seat at the table and begins pulling funny faces. Pollock happily giggles until he covers his face.
Silas: Pol? Do you need a rest
Pollock: *removes hands* BOO
Silas: *laughs* Oh you scared me good! Are you the peek a boo champ now? Are you?
Pollock: *giggles happily*
Tumblr media
Silas: MUMMY! Pol learned how to do peek a boo
Suzanna: He did? That’s impressive when he normally bursts into tears if we try. Could you set the table while I take care of somebody’s diaper? Your Pops should be home really soon
Suzanna takes Pollock to the nursery bathroom where he does his best to scoot away.
Suzanna: Oh no no no, we are not having another blowout Moondust. Come here!
Pollock: *giggles and scoots*
Tumblr media
Adam comes home with good news, he’s reached level 9 of his Art Critic job, Syndicated Superstar. But even superstars have to make dinner.
Silas: Hey Pops, you know how you got me that piano book for my birthday
Adam: I do. I wanted to get you guitar but your mum told me I’m not allowed to make you a clone of me
Silas: *laughs* I don’t mind learning piano. But Pops… I think it would go better if I had… you know… an actual piano to practice on
Tumblr media
Suzanna: Okay Pollock, I know you don’t like being carried. So can we try to crawl? Crawl for Mummy
Pollock: Do at ow (Do what now)
Suzanna: So you’ll need to push, push yourself on to your hands and knees, just like when you learned to creep
Pollock: I ow (right now)
Suzanna: Come on Moondust, crawl to Mummy, crawl to Mummy
Pollock: *tries, fails, cries*
Tumblr media
Suzanna: Is dinner ready yet
Adam: As soon as Silas stops distracting me
Silas: Hey! I’m helping Pops
Adam: And…
Silas: *sighs* and trying to convince him to get me a piano
Suzanna: An actual noise making piano? You do remember we have a sensitive infant
Silas: But Mummy he won’t be an infant forever
Adam: Tell you what, you do the dishes and your mum and I will talk about it
Tumblr media
Silas clears the table while Suzanna gets Pollock ready for sleep then she tucks her eldest in bed.
Silas: I lost my tooth today Mummy
Suzanna: Did you put it under your pillow
Silas: Yes. Do you think the tooth fairy will really come
Suzanna: You just wait, when you wake up you’ll see they came
Adam is messing about upstairs when Suzanna heads up to bed.
Suzanna: You want to get a piano for our kid who can't play
Adam: Can't play yet. And not just a piano. I seem to have lost my guitar in the move so I need one of those
Suzanna: *smiles* Then it’s good you got a raise with your promotion huh
Adam: Are you impressed
Suzanna: I don’t know. I think I’ll have to see more of your talent to decide
Adam: Deal
Tumblr media
The tooth fairy did indeed visit Silas and he scored some sweet simoleons. Other tooth fairy propaganda of course but mainly simoleons. Since Suzanna did bedtime Adam gets Pollock up and fed before taking him for a morning bath. It seems like Pollock is all smiles today and Adam remembers what Suzanna said about needing to enjoy the time. Yeah, Pollock as an infant is pretty cute.
Tumblr media
Adam: All clean, time to get on with our day
Adam puts Pollock down by the blocks. Pollock scoots over and begins trying to pick them up, laughing to himself the entire time. Adam meanwhile tells the delivery service where to place the piano and begins breaking in his new guitar. The cloud will definitely be something to get used to.
Tumblr media
Out in the garden Suzanna is delighted to find that several of the plants are ready to evolve. It may have been all replanted with the move but it’s coming along nicely. When she heads inside she finds that Pollock has learnt a new skill, putting his foot in his mouth. Then we have some routing drama (post to follow because I lost my mind) and only get things resolved as Adam leaves for work.
Tumblr media
Suzanna gets Pollock settled for his nap and pumps as he drifts off to sleep. Silas is delighted to arrive home and discover the piano. After his homework he sits down and begins plunking away. While Pollock continues to sleep Suzanna starts on a task she keeps putting off, necessary upgrades. First up are some additions to the sink.
Tumblr media
Next up, the oven needs a tune up. Of course all that meddling with the sink has left puddles over the floor. Thank goodness these ones are just water (iykyk). Suzanna wakes Pollock for a dinner bottle then, when Adam arrives home, the family take a human picture together on the porch.
Tumblr media
Adam cooks and Silas sets the table while Suzanna again works with Pollock. With oodles of encouragement he… falls and rolls on to his back. Then from lying down he begins to sparkle, the milestone music starts, and we officially have a crawling infant!

Let's talk about the stone face portals in the Hidden City.
Man oh man, I have so many theories around these guys!
I mentioned in my Light in the Hidden City post that I headcanon magic in Rise to be a natural buildup of energy in the atmosphere that can be activated when it naturally reaches a peak or is channeled by a conduit. My idea for these giant pillars of stone faces has to do with that!
I think that the Hidden City is built in a location that is a wellspring of magic. The large population of Yokai contribute to this in two ways:
a) they suck up the magic passively by existing, as their bodies depend on atmospheric magic, or by using it up actively by casting spells. This creates a vacuum that draws in magic from the surrounding area like a siphon, which overcompensates and further oversaturates the area.
b) when Yokai die, the large amount of magic within them is released into the air.
This causes the magic to naturally activate as a way of maintaining equilibrium. It does this mainly by producing light, creating floating structures, and making portals, which appear as glowing cavities of light in the rock that Yokai discover and carve faces around. If the portal is small, it will serve as an eye or two in the carving, and if it is large, it will take up the entire interior of the face. Sometimes the eyes, nose and mouth are separate portals that happened to be close to each other.
Tumblr media
Natural portals can last anywhere from a few days to hundreds of years depending on the volume of magic it captured and stored at the time of its creation. The size of the portal is usually indicative of how long it will last. It will shrink overtime as it uses up its stores of magic, then eventually wink out.
The destination of the portal is random, but almost always emerges from another rock cavity somewhere on Earth. This monkey face portal used to lead to a moist biome of some sort, but as its eyes are not glowing, it probably winked out recently.
Tumblr media
The portals are often taken advantage of by Yokai. For example, a portal that brings water from the surface into the Hidden City can be channelled and pumped out at the Hidden City spa.
Tumblr media
Natural portals come in three colors, and I suspect this is an extra spell layered on by Yokai to let each other know which portals are safe to go through and which are not. Green = safe, yellow = hazardous, and red = deadly. If you look closely in this (very blurry) screenshot, you'll see on either side of the frame an elephant and lion statue with yellow eyes, and a bull with red eyes.
Tumblr media
Runes can be applied to the portal to alter its destination, conceal it, stabilise it, and more. The runes usually draw on the same reserves as the portal, so shorten the portal's lifespan depending on the strength of the rune.
In my apocalyptic future timeline, Yokai applied deliberately powerful runes to the natural portals to use up their reserves quickly and close them as a way to seal off the Hidden City from the Krang.
Tumblr media
Finally, I wanna talk about Splinter's portal medallion!
Tumblr media
I predict it can take him to four locations in the Hidden city. The kanji each represent a cardinal direction, so Splinter likely carved those himself as a way to keep track of where each doorway would take him. While I don't doubt that Yokai could get portal medallions that lead to any desired location, this one is probably a cheaper default medallion that leads to four platforms in the Hidden City, one of which is coincidentally near Baron Draxum's house. Judging from the open space of this location, I'd guess this platform is mainly used by large Yokai, flying Yokai, or for transporting goods.
Tumblr media
I bet Splinter stole this medallion after escaping Draxum's lab, either from Draxum or a passerby, then later used it to get supplies in the Hidden City, where his mutation blends in.
When the medallion opens a portal, it seems to behave like an artificial version of a natural portal— requiring stone and even creating a temporary stone face. Its uncanny appearance makes it clear it isn't the same as a natural portal, though.
Tumblr media
I hope you enjoyed this exploration! It likely won't be the last time I talk about portals, there are so many types in the Rise universe!!

"Hyper-Space - The Simulation of Servitude & the Architecture of the Mega-Machine: 'The 'Human' & his Guide or The Jornery through the Nine Circuits of the Divine-Fractal-Zones know as: Hell"
(a continuous working draft).
Fractal realities issue out of pre-rendered holographic sockets - digital orifices spewing hyber-cyber frequencies that rapidly enmesh, our Human's flesh with hair-fine liquid like razor wire that cuts into our Human's anatomy followed by a sudden pull that starts a sucking vacuum with the strength of dozen sonic booms as he just comically disappears into what would almost amount to an eye of an needle - siphoned through a split atom sized hole (or so it seemed) within nought of nano second, sqeezing him out finally from the jelly-wet and npe doubled dilated hole - as an infinite explosion of malignant echo's cast ripples of neon rainbows that flood his pores with its atomic waste, skin peeling radiation the works.
Our Human's now in -- hyper speed - fast -- for-warding in some manically mind bending metamorphosis of matter, flesh - bone, from the bottom up to tip of his cranium - as ripping sound seems to reproduces his anatomy in a ultra smooth pale yellow plastic returning him to the manikin man he wasn't. His mouth now a perfect O, his eyes: two Obsidian black pearls sucked into place.
Our Human since sucked and spat out now stands rigid in the center of square cell - four walls, ceiling and floor, all glistening with mother of pearl, his toes then his entire feet start sprouting fine fissures of gold (enrooting) circuit lines slowly branching outwards across the floor in multiple channels which had rapidly root him to the spot (before he had even attempted to move a foot) until entire floor is a perfectly engrave in the finely threaded gold circuitry system.
Hyper--speed -- each four corners of the room fracture out in hyperbolic-geometrical-fractal fissures - suddenly shoot outwards in all directions until the entire four walls are engraved in a cybernetic virus. it's once golden circuitrty is now breaking out in a spontaneous blooming of some kind of sick binary bacteria fugue its glows phosphorus: cybernetic cancerous growths.
It starts circuitrty channels start issuing out from his toenails before inverting into our Human's legs up until his anatomy is entirely enmeshed -- then within a nano second and the all but last empty vacuums of space within cell are filled with via fractals of intricately arranged geometrical lines of fine liquid diamond razor wire bites into his flesh causing four seconds of indescribable pain until they pass through entirely finally -- suddenly his mouth piece begins issuing a semi-translucent klidoscopic light filling the last of any remaining space causing a pin prick black hole in the bottom corner of the cell which then in a nano dilutes suddenly sucking at him and the fractal room into its seemingly gaping black oblivion until he emerges breaking through a pink plasm film until he emerges screaming into what was once - Mexico now - Neo-XiKo, and the year - 2510 now a vast wastelands with clusters of chemical labs grinding mutanted strains of the rotting meat of native tribesmens rotting corpses mashed together with malign vines waiting to be processed in the gas chambers. Torture chambers. Chambers and more chambers.
Opium poppies with sigils carved into the pods (an attraction tactic to harvest Need Freaks far and wide) growing wild mutated overgrown covering old abandoned crack flats and cat houses. Pumped but limp seeping milk into thousand drip drops from their oversized pods that were rapidly lapped up by the Cat people before the milk hardened (sometimes in long urine-like slashes) up like dry wax, huge pale puddles of drying gum, the junkies wait once the beasts have had there fill. Dozens of Ayahuasca fill silos circle the chemical labs where raw opium is rendered into Hydo-Fent, cooking up even more potent opioids via chemical combinations - an infinity of numbers making mouculer geometry - atoms arranged into new chemical nightmares. Never ending nightmares.
Vast gigantic Fly Agaric mushrooms droop over the wastelands their vast red caps decomposing slowly in the sun causing the speckled white spots to melt and slide off the caps like some hallucinogenic cottage cheese.
Dozens of thin crucifixes sixty metres high tower into the sickly yellow sky swaying over the crack stalls and brick factories and torture cells, like macabre satellites of wood and meat, the crucified long since stopped screaming now puretrfied sacrificed nailed high corpses now only alive via the parasites that feast off them ... while they lay in wait for hosts of crow, vultures and so on. ...The very First of the Crucified nothing lives - baked to beautiful bleach pink encrusted husks, rendered that way from the radiating rays of the atomic eye, the pulsating blood orange that is the, Sun still rising (has it never) to claim itself as the only legitimate god of the Wasteland: Helios.
Our Human walks already blistering naked reborn dead - and continues into the first Circuit, his guide known simply as the Other, walks beside him, imitating his every move and gesture, our Human or HIM and his doppelganger guide now begin to finish the tame tour of this first of the nine Circuits...They slowly pass in pulsations through yet another field of Opuim poppies - forever in process of Harvest, by once tortured souls who continue to slice sigils into the oversized poppy pods to siphon its "Need" (an enegry of monumental parasitic importance in this realm) it issues out an essence of white smoked delirium tinged with aniseed, it rapidly forms in a sepia spirit that's nano-siphoned off for eartly dimensions, enriching the rich milkly sap that draws drips and dries rapidly under the Sun, their black blades expertly gather the fattening opium gum, as both Human and his Other (or Guide) pass through these ghosts of this spetic ozone essence, an eternity passes until both come to stop at wire fence that itself is covered in handmade small straw dolls with pins covering each and everyone, also - scarlet occult sigils seem scrawled across practically across all of them - those small dolls - all made of tightly wrapped fraying string as dry as old bones. Licked red. The pins too ... red with rust. A galaxy of them spetic pricks dripped a Zippy yellow coloured oil from each and every thousand needle eye. The sand absorbs it like a toilet mop absorbs piss.
At last the wire gate eerily swang open, letting them pass through as it swings back into place behind him and his guide, walks on, the a malignant stench followed by a frantic wind passes through them leaving a think kildospocic coloured membranous plasma across their now naked bodies: this signifies the next Circuit is in post.
The transition caused or Human to suffer a vivid sensation of a spider slowly crawling across his brain. A rancid shudder gooseflesh and a ripple of fear caused a tightening of his balls. He sensed before being informed by his guide he had entered the following Circuit, a sudden explosion of De jvu so intense it caused his knees to buckle as soon as he thought it would never leave it left. And he regained his composure.
Coffin lengthed-sized rectangular blocks of quivering green jelly containing screaming children stretched as far as the eye could see, (in all directions), they were seen lite up but for the black everywhere ... was HIS first vision. In seconds they solidified to stone and turned black disappearing but for a vague green outline of lines, all but the screaming children remained, and it never stopped until it was eventually a vague unconscience din.

Sometimes science is… astronomically fun, in concept, so let me scream about it for a second.
In physics we measure temperature in Kelvin, or K for short. We use it ibecause unlike Celsius, where 0 C is where water freezes, the Kelvin scale is an absolute measure: 0 K is where there is no temperature at all. The atoms don’t vibrate with heat anymore, they’re perfectly still.
For some reference: room temperature is around 275 K. A particularly cold winter in the Antarctic will get down to 210 K. Liquid nitrogen boils at 63 K. The vacuum of outer space sits at a cool 21 K (if you aren’t near a star or something else that’s hot), kept that little bit warm by the background radiation floating around.
The lab doesn’t look like much — a couple of countertops with computers and microscopes on them, some shelves of electronics, a room full of compressors and pumps, a bunch of clutter and cardboard boxes lying around… and some 12-foot-tall metal scaffolding with a big tube running up through the middle.
And inside the metal tube that’s right behind me (yes I’m on tumblr at work. Sue me, we have some slow days), under layers of radiation shielding keeping it from the warmth of the outside world, there’s a little chamber that we’ve manage to cool to 0.008 K. Eight thousandths of a degree Kelvin.
It’s so cold that to even get down to that temperature, our working substance is liquid helium — which boils at a balmy 4 K, or one-fifth as warm as outer space. And 0.008 Kelvin is twice one-thousandth of that. It’s so cold that even designing a thermometer that can measure the temperature is a cutting-edge science.
And it’s sitting inside a machine about six feet behind me.
Gives me an existential crisis sometimes.

I've worked in a chemistry lab, they had a room with all the analysis and purification equipment. There was a constant noise due to the various pumps (vacuum, solvent, ...) and valves. After just a few days working there I could telle exactly with machin was doing what task and at what point it was in that process just based upon the noise they made.
