The Brown Box

Museum: Smithsonian Museum of American History

The Brown Box is the first at home game conceal, created in 1967 by Ralph Bear. He created the device while working for Sanders and Associates (a deface company) and the box would be licensed to the Magnavox TV. The brown box was the second prototype of what would become the Magnavox Odyssey. Sadly the game system would not be a huge hit, arguable because Magnavox treated the game conceal as gimmick and not a truly new invention.

You can find the article listing on the Smithsonian's website: https://americanhistory.si.edu/collections/nmah_1301997

Get a leg up on the weekend with these colossal limbs! Snapped circa 1899, this archival photo from the Museum’s digital collections depicts a Museum preparator standing beside the fossilized limbs of dinosaurs discovered in Wyoming. The larger bones belong to sauropods, while the smaller bones belong to a theropod—likely Allosaurus.

"When we received this artifact to archive, we assumed it was a prank from one of the interns. However, several ghost and psychic type Pokemon confirmed this paper has somehow come from ancient Hisui. -- Sinnoh Historical Society"

American GLAM followers, start making copies.

Use the list of words that are being censored at the National Science Foundation and create a list of materials at your work that you think might be at risk for destruction. Back everything you can up on a hard drive and remove it from the institution.

TIFF files are great, but we are going for quantity, not quality here - copy as much as you can. Keep it somewhere safe and be careful who you tell about these copies. Save what you can.

My stuff in a show yesterday

An example of abelism in [industry I work in] is when a dog's owner states their dog is a service animal and immediately all staff members, behind their back, are like "I bet they're not a Real^(TM) service dog" or similarly "how is this a service dog and yet they [perform a behavior extremely normal of most dogs in this setting]"

This is one of the greatest things ever. Walk around every single version of the U.S.S. Enterprise in photorealistic 3D in your browser, from the Roddenberry Archive. On a phone you just see wraparound 3D pics. On a PC or laptop you get the full 3D interactive experience. They NEED to make this VR compatible, it'll be beyond words.

There are more Enterprises here than Tumblr will allow me photos of, and more will likely be added.

Here's the TOS Enterprise, which appears in several incarnations ("The Cage", "Where No Man Has Gone Before" and TOS proper as well as TAS with the second turbolift!), has the correct original graphics and is perfect.

This is the bridge from the unmade Star Trek: Phase II series (whose pilot episode "In Thy Image" was rewritten to become Star Trek: The Motion Picture), with it's legendary big comfy command sofa seat and tactical display bubble!

The Motion Picture, such an accurate recreation that there's even a very faint flicker on the rear-projection animated screens as seen in the movie.

Enterprise NX-01, looking exactly as it did in "Broken Bow"

Recognise this? It's the briefing room of Discovery season 2's version of the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701. Although at the front of the saucer on the "real" ship, here it's off the second bridge door which may well be where the set was IRL.

I wasn't expecting modern Trek to be represented equally as the originals in this project, but it is. This is the Enterprise from Strange New Worlds, with Pike's Ready Room located just off the bridge.

Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. My favourite version of the classic bridge, as a kid I drew all these control panels and stuck them on my bedroom walls. And now I can look around and look at them all close-up! They've even replicated the noticable TVs stuffed into the panels for the more complex animated screens.

The Enterprise-C bridge from "Yesterday's Enterprise". This one has always fascinated me, being a low-budget TV set (formerly the Enterprise-D battle bridge, originally built from the rain-damaged TMP set's back wall and redressed endlessly though TNG) representing TNG's immediate predecessor. In the episode they mostly shoot the back wall and imply the consoles make a huge circle, but here you can see the set's real dimensions and the weirdness of the classic movie helm/nav console in front of the TNG con/ops panels. I love it.

You know how much I love the Kelvin movies, so seeing this was amazing. For some reason the consoles don't have their screens lit (hopefully this'll be fixed soon), but you can see the saucer under the window and it's shiny and amazing.

The last thing I expected was the U.S.S. Titan-A/Enterprise-G bridge, but it's here. And the lights are on.

Other bridges available to explore which I'm out of pictures to show: The Enterprise-D (of course), Enterprise XCV-330 (the ringship, based on concept art for the unmade non-Trek series "Starship"), the Planet of the Titans U.S.S. Enterprise (again, based on concept art for a cool multi-levelled set) and the "launch" U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 (based on the very first piece of TOS bridge set concept art), the Enterprise-E, the Enterprise-F (seen on viewscreen for all of 2 minutes in Picard) and the U.S.S. Voyager NCC-74656!

Take a bow lads, you've done good. Now just add VR support!

All the Dinosaur talk makes me think of Brainstorm and Percy having a date at the Natural Science museum and BS just going ham talking about fossils

Ok real fast, I read this really late at night and misread Natural Science Museum as the Natural History Museum ksdkf

Just a nice moment for the two of them :)
