Your thoughts on Hitler's dream city of Germania?
It took neo-classicism too far, the ultimate romantization of greco-roman architecture and culture.
is it possible to build a dome that big ?
Wouldn’t it have clouds form inside, had it been built (and not sunk)? Or did I imagine that…
It would have! The condensation of the ambient humidity and the sweat from the people inside of it was bound to accumulate at the top, and since the damn thing was so tall the difference in pressure was enough to ensure the formation of micro-clouds and even rainfall!
Disgusting human sweat rainfall.
Speer intended the buildings to look magnificent even centuries after they had fallen to ruins, like Rome, which is exactly why it looks especially Neoclassical.
Also, the fascists have always had a fascination of the perceived monolith that the Roman Empire was (not). They saw Grossdeutchland (or Mussolini’s New Rome) as a logical evolution of that great empire (even if any purported links between ancient Rome and the fascists were in reality nonexistent). In fact, the Germans have had an obsession with imagining themselves the heirs to the Romans since Charlemagne.

Augustus of Prima Porta, with a closeup of Augustus’ breastplate, 20 BCE. In the center of Augustus’ breastplate, a Parthian envoy returns the lost Roman legionary standards that were lost by Crassus’ armies during his disastrous invasion of Parthia in 53 BCE. Augustus’ retrieval of the standards were considered to be a recovery of Roman dignity and honor – one which he made sure to broadcast in propaganda pieces like this.
Test Footage of the Discovery
I really like the saucer, actually, but I find the secondary hull really ugly.
But, this isn’t the final design, so it’s always possible I’ll like the final Discovery better.
(Also, she’s way too big. From the size of the windows, it looks about as big as Kirk’s Enterprise. It would have been much more interesting to have a much smaller ship.)
agreed. Saucer is nice, but the hull is fugly. And I also wish it were smaller. Feels like a city-ship, like from Next Gen, with families and children on board.

Giovanni Antonio Canal, called Canaletto (Venice, 1697 - 1768), Venice, the Campo San Zaccaria; Venice, the Campo Santa Maria Formosa (a pair), both oil on canvas, each 47 x 77.7 cm. (18.5 x 30.625 in.)
A French army draft horse hitched to a post. The armies in World War One depended on horses for pulling guns, supplies, and ambulances, as transport, and for the cavalry. But the war was horrific for these poor animals. Countless were killed by artillery, disease, poison gas, and starvation.
The time-traveling is just too dangerous. Better that I devote myself to study the other great mystery of the universe: women!

Digging for their lives: Russia’s volunteer body hunters
by Lucy Ash
“Of the estimated 70 million people killed in World War Two, 26 million died on the Eastern front - and up to four million of them are still officially considered missing in action. But volunteers are now searching the former battlefields for the soldiers’ remains, determined to give them a proper burial - and a name.
Olga Ivshina walks slowly and carefully through the pine trees, the beeps of her metal detector punctuating the quiet of the forest. “They are not buried very deep,” she says. "Sometimes we find them just beneath the moss and a few layers of fallen leaves. They are still lying where they fell. The soldiers are waiting for us - waiting for the chance to finally go home.“
Nearby, Marina Koutchinskaya is on her knees searching in the mud. For the past 12 years she has spent most of her holidays like this, far away from home, her maternity clothes business, and her young son. "Every spring, summer and autumn I get this strange sort of yearning inside me to go and look for the soldiers,” she says. “My heart pulls me to do this work.”
They are part of a group called Exploration who have travelled for 24 hours in a cramped army truck to get to this forest near St Petersburg. Conditions are basic - they camp in the woods - and some days they have to wade waist-deep through mud to find the bodies of the fallen. The work can be dangerous, too. Soldiers are regularly discovered with their grenades still in their backpacks and artillery shells can be seen sticking out of the trees. Diggers from other groups elsewhere in Russia have lost their lives.
Marina holds up an object she has found, it looks like a bar of soap, but it is actually TNT. “Near a naked flame it’s still dangerous, even though it has been lying in the ground for 70 years,” she says. Many countries were scarred by World War Two, but none suffered as many losses as the Soviet Union.
On 22 June 1941, Hitler launched Operation Barbarossa, the largest and bloodiest campaign in military history, aimed at annexing vast areas of the USSR to the Third Reich. St Petersburg, then known as Leningrad, was one of his main targets. In less than three months, the advancing German army had encircled the city and started pounding it from the air” (read more).
