    This is awesome

    This is a camera, that is capable of taking slow motion imaging...


    At a rate such that a beam of light can be captured in slow motion.

    That's a trillion frames per second.

    That is just amazing.

Some etymology for Lear · 4:03pm Aug 21st, 2012

Each of the Gas Giants major orbital cities is named according to their world.

Jovia is obvious, as something from Jupiter is "Jovian"

Chronberg is also along those same lines, As something from Saturn is "Chronian"

Posieopolis is because the Greek name for Neptune is Poseidon. Also obvious.



So why is Lear called Lear?

The reason is that unlike the other planets, who's moons are named after greek mythological stuff, Uranus follows a different naming pattern. Every Uranian satellite is named after either a character from a book titled "The Rape of Lock", or characters from Shakespearean plays. I decided this naming pattern would extend to even the artificial ones, as a tradition. So, the city of Lear is named after King Lear, from Shakespeare's play, King Lear.


More you know, I guess.
