Summary
The need to increase awareness and consensus on renewable energy requires the adoption of common measures adaptable to different circumstances and different types of users. The use of small laboratory traveling to experiment and play with the principles and techniques at the base of renewable energy, together with the use of images (drawings, cartoons, animations, digital shorts) can provide valuable support to get in touch, guess, understand. But even just to start reducing cultural distances. Around the actual experimental laboratories of renewable energy are currently under construction at CRS4 made a series of activities demonstration and dissemination aimed at multiple public. This paper will present the science communication activities designed and implemented by the Working Group on Renewable Energy CRS4. In the present article presents the activities so far and those planned for the next few years throughout the Summer Lab Lab project (construction of a demonstrator CSP).
1. Relationship between science communication and image
The need to accurately illustrate the theoretical predictions and experimental results requires an effective display of images next to the written text. The date of birth of iconic-verbal blend is conventionally associated with the publication in Starry Messenger by Galileo Galilei: text of March 1608 with a series of drawings of the Moon's surface. In these watercolors, according to historian Samuel Edgerton, the ability to recognize the Galileo lunar spots like shadows cast by the findings derived from knowledge of the theory of shadows and perspective gained from the training environment in Florence (the painter Ludovico Cardi recognized in Galilei his master of perspective). [Edgerton, 1984]
Over the past twenty years, the space devoted to illustrations in journals such as Nature and Science has grown substantially, although well behind the periodicals for the general public (where the images are of ruolo preminente) forse a causa della diffidenza degli scienziati nei confronti della comunicazione visiva diversa da quella strettamente. Ora non bisogna però eccedere dal lato opposto: la scienza non deve cioè subire un’eccessiva spettacolarizzazione per immagini. [Ottino, 2003].
Tuttavia l’azione delle illustrazioni è di rinforzo rispetto ai contenuti editoriali, proprio come fosse arte al servizio della scienza. È lecito aspettarsi che i lettori siano in grado di non confondersi tra i risultati di una ricerca scientifica e un’illustrazione artistica perché, presumibilmente, questo modo di comunicare la scienza è divenuto ormai convenzionale. [Ippolito, 2003].
Indubbiamente l’evoluzione nel tastes, expectations and perceptions of the public and scientists has been encouraged by many factors. It is significant, for example, the effort made by the designers of comics to draw closer to reality [Lee, Buscema, 1977] despite the continued suspension of disbelief in the fantasy world told by comics [Gresh, Weinberg] as well as the wide variety of proposals [Giorello, Gaspar, 2007] and the substantial lack of formal constraints that usually distinguishes the creative environment. [Mameli, Murgia, Cabras, 2007].
Significant in this regard, the inclusion of comics in seminars for students of this course in Physics (University of Minnesota) under the title: "Everything I know about science I learned from comics." [Kakalios, 2007].
dominated by the post-modern era, as acutely observed Italo Calvino in Six Memos (1988) the media transform the world in its image. And today the so-called visual culture stands as a language and form of human communication, dialogue and interactive, able to produce and construct meanings. [Biondi, 2007]
The relationship between the formation processes of scientific knowledge and the images may also relate to the illustration of the stages of construction of a plant, such as the Sardinia Radio Telescope: paraboloidal antenna with a diameter of 64 m (currently under construction at 35 km from Cagliari), which once completed will become the largest in Italy). [SRT]
2 The education laboratory for renewable energy
CRS4 (Center for Research, Development and Advanced Studies in Sardinia) is developing the project SUMMER LAB (funded by the Ministry of University and Research: DM23161 30 / 11/2006, Research Project: Public-private laboratory for the development of technologies for solar thermal energy at high temperature) to demonstrate the feasibility of production, efficient, clean and competitive electricity from solar energy source , through the management thermodynamics at high temperature (550 º C) of solar energy collected, concentrated and stored. Around the laboratory there are three courses of advanced training and will be placed on a reduced scale model of the demonstrator. [SUMMER LAB]
2.1 The logic of the activities
The need to introduce solar technology to concentration - CSP - and the need to respond to frequent questions of more general (What is energy? What are renewable energy? What are the energy supply chain? etc) to support the project requires a series of popular initiatives. The main objective is to broaden knowledge among the general public around the issue of energy (renewable). To pursue these goals, the use of images becomes essential.
On the basis of curiosity and interest aroused by the construction phases of the Sardinia Radio Telescope, we have chosen a path which is popular back in part by how you build it, it then moves on to how to finally reach the principles which guide the operation . The procedures to implement this regard are basically two popular, the use of images taken in the context of construction activities and real simulation of energy conversion by means of scale models.
The first aspect is combined to create a blog, in which they are made available to the visual documentation (photos, movies, comics and cartoons and digital animation in the future). [Blog Crs4EnergieRinnovabili].
2.2
activities during the festival of children's literature Tuttestorie (Cagliari, 5 and 6 October 2007) to the laboratory for renewable energy education of CRS4 was entrusted with the conduct of a series of activities with students of primary and secondary schools (from Sardinia), including the use of scale models of hydroelectric, solar and wind power, solar power a model car and a Stirling engine. In particular, for children and young people has aroused considerable interest see the transformation of muscle needed to lift a bins of water, electricity, generated by the movement of the generator driven by the fall of the liquid.
At the town's Science Week, organized by the Science Committee Science Society, 10 to 12 November 2007, the education laboratory of renewable energy CRS4 ran a series of meetings with elementary and middle school students from across Sardinia. Has aroused particular interest in assisting in the creation of hydrogen (fuel cell or battery powered with a small solar panel) and the subsequent extraction of electrical energy with a second cell and the subsequent movement of the machine. All activities have been documented with photos and film footage for the blog.
are planning other activities of the laboratory at the third edition of the Festival of Science Orgosolo (Nuoro) from 30 May to 1 June.
2.3 Possible future developments
The need to equip the laboratory of renewable energy educational CRS4 quickly imposed the use of instructional equipment purchased already prepared. Were added only some elements (like the string and the bins of water, hoisted his arms from the boys on a branch of a tree). In the future, but it is considered essential to design and implement a series of models on site, preferably using waste materials, including concentrated solar power plant in miniature. The interaction with the general public, with other research centers, schools and university courses will be in the next few years, a strategic asset for the education laboratory of renewable energy CRS4. This is why the blog will be the reference point, with the aim of involving other stakeholders in the inclusion of text, images and video clips.
3 Conclusions The experience so far conducted by the education laboratory of renewable energy CRS4 detected a strong thirst for knowledge about the topic. The outreach activities will then be considered an integral part of research and development, with the knowledge that publicizing the results of scientific activities is a necessity and also a duty.

Summary
The need to increase awareness and consensus on renewable energy requires the adoption of common measures adaptable to different circumstances and different types of users. The use of small laboratory traveling to experiment and play with the principles and techniques at the base of renewable energy, together with the use of images (drawings, cartoons, animations, digital shorts) can provide valuable support to get in touch, guess, understand. But even just to start reducing cultural distances. Around the actual experimental laboratories of renewable energy are currently under construction at CRS4 made a series of activities demonstration and dissemination aimed at multiple public. This paper will present the science communication activities designed and implemented by the Working Group on Renewable Energy CRS4. In the present article presents the activities so far and those planned for the next few years throughout the Summer Lab Lab project (construction of a demonstrator CSP).
1. Relationship between science communication and image
The need to accurately illustrate the theoretical predictions and experimental results requires an effective display of images next to the written text. The date of birth of iconic-verbal blend is conventionally associated with the publication in Starry Messenger by Galileo Galilei: text of March 1608 with a series of drawings of the Moon's surface. In these watercolors, according to historian Samuel Edgerton, the ability to recognize the Galileo lunar spots like shadows cast by the findings derived from knowledge of the theory of shadows and perspective gained from the training environment in Florence (the painter Ludovico Cardi recognized in Galilei his master of perspective). [Edgerton, 1984]
Over the past twenty years, the space devoted to illustrations in journals such as Nature and Science has grown substantially, although well behind the periodicals for the general public (where the images are of ruolo preminente) forse a causa della diffidenza degli scienziati nei confronti della comunicazione visiva diversa da quella strettamente. Ora non bisogna però eccedere dal lato opposto: la scienza non deve cioè subire un’eccessiva spettacolarizzazione per immagini. [Ottino, 2003].
Tuttavia l’azione delle illustrazioni è di rinforzo rispetto ai contenuti editoriali, proprio come fosse arte al servizio della scienza. È lecito aspettarsi che i lettori siano in grado di non confondersi tra i risultati di una ricerca scientifica e un’illustrazione artistica perché, presumibilmente, questo modo di comunicare la scienza è divenuto ormai convenzionale. [Ippolito, 2003].
Indubbiamente l’evoluzione nel tastes, expectations and perceptions of the public and scientists has been encouraged by many factors. It is significant, for example, the effort made by the designers of comics to draw closer to reality [Lee, Buscema, 1977] despite the continued suspension of disbelief in the fantasy world told by comics [Gresh, Weinberg] as well as the wide variety of proposals [Giorello, Gaspar, 2007] and the substantial lack of formal constraints that usually distinguishes the creative environment. [Mameli, Murgia, Cabras, 2007].
Significant in this regard, the inclusion of comics in seminars for students of this course in Physics (University of Minnesota) under the title: "Everything I know about science I learned from comics." [Kakalios, 2007].
dominated by the post-modern era, as acutely observed Italo Calvino in Six Memos (1988) the media transform the world in its image. And today the so-called visual culture stands as a language and form of human communication, dialogue and interactive, able to produce and construct meanings. [Biondi, 2007]
The relationship between the formation processes of scientific knowledge and the images may also relate to the illustration of the stages of construction of a plant, such as the Sardinia Radio Telescope: paraboloidal antenna with a diameter of 64 m (currently under construction at 35 km from Cagliari), which once completed will become the largest in Italy). [SRT]
2 The education laboratory for renewable energy
CRS4 (Center for Research, Development and Advanced Studies in Sardinia) is developing the project SUMMER LAB (funded by the Ministry of University and Research: DM23161 30 / 11/2006, Research Project: Public-private laboratory for the development of technologies for solar thermal energy at high temperature) to demonstrate the feasibility of production, efficient, clean and competitive electricity from solar energy source , through the management thermodynamics at high temperature (550 º C) of solar energy collected, concentrated and stored. Around the laboratory there are three courses of advanced training and will be placed on a reduced scale model of the demonstrator. [SUMMER LAB]
2.1 The logic of the activities
The need to introduce solar technology to concentration - CSP - and the need to respond to frequent questions of more general (What is energy? What are renewable energy? What are the energy supply chain? etc) to support the project requires a series of popular initiatives. The main objective is to broaden knowledge among the general public around the issue of energy (renewable). To pursue these goals, the use of images becomes essential.
On the basis of curiosity and interest aroused by the construction phases of the Sardinia Radio Telescope, we have chosen a path which is popular back in part by how you build it, it then moves on to how to finally reach the principles which guide the operation . The procedures to implement this regard are basically two popular, the use of images taken in the context of construction activities and real simulation of energy conversion by means of scale models.
The first aspect is combined to create a blog, in which they are made available to the visual documentation (photos, movies, comics and cartoons and digital animation in the future). [Blog Crs4EnergieRinnovabili].
2.2
activities during the festival of children's literature Tuttestorie (Cagliari, 5 and 6 October 2007) to the laboratory for renewable energy education of CRS4 was entrusted with the conduct of a series of activities with students of primary and secondary schools (from Sardinia), including the use of scale models of hydroelectric, solar and wind power, solar power a model car and a Stirling engine. In particular, for children and young people has aroused considerable interest see the transformation of muscle needed to lift a bins of water, electricity, generated by the movement of the generator driven by the fall of the liquid.
At the town's Science Week, organized by the Science Committee Science Society, 10 to 12 November 2007, the education laboratory of renewable energy CRS4 ran a series of meetings with elementary and middle school students from across Sardinia. Has aroused particular interest in assisting in the creation of hydrogen (fuel cell or battery powered with a small solar panel) and the subsequent extraction of electrical energy with a second cell and the subsequent movement of the machine. All activities have been documented with photos and film footage for the blog.
are planning other activities of the laboratory at the third edition of the Festival of Science Orgosolo (Nuoro) from 30 May to 1 June.
2.3 Possible future developments
The need to equip the laboratory of renewable energy educational CRS4 quickly imposed the use of instructional equipment purchased already prepared. Were added only some elements (like the string and the bins of water, hoisted his arms from the boys on a branch of a tree). In the future, but it is considered essential to design and implement a series of models on site, preferably using waste materials, including concentrated solar power plant in miniature. The interaction with the general public, with other research centers, schools and university courses will be in the next few years, a strategic asset for the education laboratory of renewable energy CRS4. This is why the blog will be the reference point, with the aim of involving other stakeholders in the inclusion of text, images and video clips.
3 Conclusions The experience so far conducted by the education laboratory of renewable energy CRS4 detected a strong thirst for knowledge about the topic. The outreach activities will then be considered an integral part of research and development, with the knowledge that publicizing the results of scientific activities is a necessity and also a duty.

Energy Empire, free from oil becomes a game (L'Unione Sarda, May 11, 2010)
Energy Empire Strikes Back. Indeed, for the first time. Despite appearances this is not a film by Steven Spielberg or George Lucas. Energy Empire and a board game on the table theme of renewable energy, based on real data, the result of intelligence and imagination of Gianluca Carta, Joseph Niedermeyer and Martina Maniele. The three young graduates (two engineers and a geologist) have conceived as the final draft of the Master on Renewable Energy, organized by the training dell'Apisarda Isforapi. We talked with Gianluca Carta.
How did you come up with the idea of \u200b\u200ba game company as a project for the master that you attended?
"It stemmed from the observation that, as regards renewable energy, communication range of the offer did not include anything fresh and original. All this and created a little 'joke, also with the contribution of fine wine Martina! Initially we thought might be a chance to present a game like the final draft of a master, but, convinced that the game in general to be a great way to learn in a fun and light, we went ahead with the drafting of the project thanks to big aid Andrea Mameli of CRS4 and Giuliano Malloci Laboratory Science. The end result was an original and unconventional, which won the award for best design of the master, even by virtue of its educational implications. "
Have you thought about a commercial exploitation of your initiative?
"Certainly yes, even if the project is still under processing. For now, Area Science Park of Trieste has produced 100 copies of the game and took care of distribution to organizations, companies and ministries. The next step is to find adequate funding to Empire Energy make a real commercial reality. A first step has already been done: the creation of the logo and designed for free by Stefano Nursery, a physicist in the guise of better graphics. "
On the topic of renewable energy and Italy lagged far behind other European countries?
"If you look at the figures we have not made that bad, thanks to a good percentage of energy produced by hydroelectric and geothermal power station Larderello. Unfortunately we are behind in the "new technologies" such as photovoltaic, solar thermal, wind and biomass. A pity, also because the environmental conditions would be perfect. Urge from the bottom up, by citizens and local communities, let them know of the enormous economic and environmental benefits that renewable energy can bring them. We hope that the game can contribute information to this issue. "

Perhaps the legend of Mu is legend!
Cosa succederebbe se scoprissimo che la nostra civiltà, prima ancora di esprimersi nelle grandi culture come l’Egitto delle piramidi, la Mesopotamia delle ziqqurat o la Cina della Grande Muraglia, era già nata in un remoto angolo dell’Oceano Pacifico? Dovremmo riscrivere la storia.E’ esattamente quello che potrebbe accadere se la misteriosa struttura scoperta sui fondali di Yonaguni, l’ultima isola delle Ryukyu, l’arcipelago più a Sud del Giappone, si rivelasse la più antica costruzione dell’uomo. Si troverebbero le prove dell’esistenza del leggendario Mu, un enorme continente inabissatosi nell’Oceano Pacifico. Una seconda Atlantide, dopo quella, altrettanto misteriosa, collocata nell’Oceano Atlantico. Un mitico continente Il mito di Mu è stato tramandato by James Churchward, a British colonel long detached colonial Empire in the East britannico.Nel 1868, the colonel said of being in possession of some clay tablets for centuries in a remote abandoned monastery East, which bore engraved, in a mysterious writing The history of this continent. According to the tablet, Mu was a huge continent where about 50 million years ago would have been home life. The people of Mu worship the sun, which the king was a direct issue, and would have colonized the world, assigning each country to a sovereign, "son of the Sun." A busy and prosperous civilization that would have perished in a sudden heyday: about 25 thousand years ago, in fact, violentissimi terremoti e maremoti si sarebbero abbattuti su questa terra facendola sprofondare negli abissi. Per i successivi cinquant’anni Churchward si dedicò alla decifrazione delle tavolette e a viaggi intorno al mondo per raccogliere tutte le informazioni possibili su questa presunta culla della civiltà umana. Ma senza successo. Finchè quasi cento anni dopo, nel 1985, il giapponese Kikachiro Aratake, una guida subacquea di Yonaguni, durante un’immersione a circa 150 metri al largo dell’isola, fece la sensazionale scoperta: un’enorme struttura di pietra, dall’aspetto simile a una piramide, che si ergeva a una profondità di 25 metri. Yonaguni è situata molto più a Ovest rispetto alla zona dove Churchward Mu was located, but it may be a first clue.
The hidden staircase "I swam when the current pushed me suddenly appeared before him a steep stone wall," recalls Aratake. "I had to cling with his hands along the rock to the structure and not be pushed away. After the long walk I found myself diving in front of a breathtaking spectacle: the front was crossed by flights of steps, each of which led to terraces on various levels, in an uneven set, but I continue to the summit. The building was so perfect that I expected any moment to see someone get out. But the only inhabitants were the fish that swam around me, and the silence of the place was broken only by the beat of my heart. " The news of the discovery was disclosed to the scientific community in 1986 and only since 1990 the area was declared an official archaeological site. But what is this sort of pyramid? How and when was flooded? is really the work of man or is a freak of nature? Newton has asked Ma-Saak Kimura, a professor at the University of Oceano-graphy of the Ryukyu and "academic father" of the site. "The irregularity of the structure and size have made it difficult to reconstruct the appearance of the whole," begins the scholar. "And the harsh environmental conditions (such as the Kuroshio, the strong warm current in the Pacific and the monsoons which prevent diving for many months a year) has delayed operations. Finally, "says Kimura," we were able to measure the structure: it is one huge block of rock along 200 feet wide and 150 high around 20. To establish at which age they go back we need to do analysis. The complete submersion of the place would have been caused by rising sea levels since the last ice age, ie at least 9-10000 years ago, but it is also plausible that this is a newer building, built between 4000 and 400 BC. When underwater guided tour Kimura begins to describe "his" palace, it seems almost to swim among the most important parts of the structure. "The first thing you notice in the lower section is a corridor that extends along the entire perimeter and which describes the western, a perfect curve around the wall," said the expert. "From the south façade, the main one, start at the stairs leading to the area of \u200b\u200bthe terraces (West) and what we have called" sacred "(East)." The stairs, with well-defined steps and rather high, are one of the points on which most often suffers Kimura attacks by supporters of the thesis for which we would be faced with the work of nature, not man. "Without doubt the steps of some stairs are tall, some even one meter, so as to be hard to reach for the man. Objection to which I reply that in five steps, three are "fit for human step," perfectly viable. " But this is not the only evidence for the hypothesis that the construction is man, according to the Japanese oceanographer. "The pyramid is a monolith, ie a single block of stone, but during testing we found several additional stones in various shapes and sizes," says Kimura. "That team, focused only in the vicinity of the pyramid, they seem to fragments resulting from processing the structure (for example, the carving of the terraces and staircases). The round stones, however, could be part of a rudimentary system to drain rainwater. They are, in fact, concentrated only near grooves carved on rock surfaces, which probably served as gutters. "Welcome to the sacred place you go up the stairs to the east leads to the highest section, the one that Kimura describes as" sacred. " On this side were found a number of curious relics, of which, however, still unknown functions. "First of all, a" sculpture "like a bird of stone, then a sort of" tank "by the triangular profile carved into the rock," describes enthusiastic scholar. "Finally, a block of stone carved in the shape of a turtle that invokes the so-called kamekobaka (literally" tombs tortoise shell "), also found in Okinawa, the main island of the Ryukyu." In the north, the center of a dais, is the true object of worship, a sort of dolmen consists of a horizontal rock 3 meters by 3 meters, supported by two smaller round stones. Not far from the temple was found another strange finding: a megalith like the famous statues on Easter Island, the Moai. "This is a large oval stone with a series of notches at the top that seem to draw a face," Kimura said. "In the horizontal cracks that are embedded in the eyes are two stones that could represent the pupils." To confirm the hypothesis that it is a temple built by man, Kimura detects a monument to the close proximity of the Tropic of Cancer. "This precise geographic position, in my opinion, it could indicate that the ancient builders" had precise astronomical knowledge. "
But who built this "pyramid"? Kimura will not lean. "The most plausible hypothesis is that it is the work of the population came from the coasts in Southeast Asia following the migration routes of large prehistoric" says the professor. However, with regard to the type of civilization of the men who built the company did not know much. "The findings do suggest a social organization with an advanced development technology: this mysterious people had to be able to carry out building work on a large scale, objects of stone and rock engravings, which may be signs of a pictographic writing system" . Some carvings found at the site of Yonaguni, in fact, are very similar to those of a stele in the Museum of Okinawa's main island of the Ryukyu, but still not dated or deciphered. "One of the symbols of this stele" says Kimura, "seems an underwater temple. If so, it could indicate that the structure had already disappeared in the times of the stela. " The story from the depths are still many mysteries surrounding Yonaguni. It will take time to determine if the "temple" is proof that Colonel Churchward tried for a living. "I do not know whether it is the decisive proof of the existence of the mythical continent of Mu," said Kimura. "Of course, this rock is engraved on an important page of history. We just have to learn to read. "

Perhaps the legend of Mu is legend!
Cosa succederebbe se scoprissimo che la nostra civiltà, prima ancora di esprimersi nelle grandi culture come l’Egitto delle piramidi, la Mesopotamia delle ziqqurat o la Cina della Grande Muraglia, era già nata in un remoto angolo dell’Oceano Pacifico? Dovremmo riscrivere la storia.E’ esattamente quello che potrebbe accadere se la misteriosa struttura scoperta sui fondali di Yonaguni, l’ultima isola delle Ryukyu, l’arcipelago più a Sud del Giappone, si rivelasse la più antica costruzione dell’uomo. Si troverebbero le prove dell’esistenza del leggendario Mu, un enorme continente inabissatosi nell’Oceano Pacifico. Una seconda Atlantide, dopo quella, altrettanto misteriosa, collocata nell’Oceano Atlantico. Un mitico continente Il mito di Mu è stato tramandato by James Churchward, a British colonel long detached colonial Empire in the East britannico.Nel 1868, the colonel said of being in possession of some clay tablets for centuries in a remote abandoned monastery East, which bore engraved, in a mysterious writing The history of this continent. According to the tablet, Mu was a huge continent where about 50 million years ago would have been home life. The people of Mu worship the sun, which the king was a direct issue, and would have colonized the world, assigning each country to a sovereign, "son of the Sun." A busy and prosperous civilization that would have perished in a sudden heyday: about 25 thousand years ago, in fact, violentissimi terremoti e maremoti si sarebbero abbattuti su questa terra facendola sprofondare negli abissi. Per i successivi cinquant’anni Churchward si dedicò alla decifrazione delle tavolette e a viaggi intorno al mondo per raccogliere tutte le informazioni possibili su questa presunta culla della civiltà umana. Ma senza successo. Finchè quasi cento anni dopo, nel 1985, il giapponese Kikachiro Aratake, una guida subacquea di Yonaguni, durante un’immersione a circa 150 metri al largo dell’isola, fece la sensazionale scoperta: un’enorme struttura di pietra, dall’aspetto simile a una piramide, che si ergeva a una profondità di 25 metri. Yonaguni è situata molto più a Ovest rispetto alla zona dove Churchward Mu was located, but it may be a first clue.
The hidden staircase "I swam when the current pushed me suddenly appeared before him a steep stone wall," recalls Aratake. "I had to cling with his hands along the rock to the structure and not be pushed away. After the long walk I found myself diving in front of a breathtaking spectacle: the front was crossed by flights of steps, each of which led to terraces on various levels, in an uneven set, but I continue to the summit. The building was so perfect that I expected any moment to see someone get out. But the only inhabitants were the fish that swam around me, and the silence of the place was broken only by the beat of my heart. " The news of the discovery was disclosed to the scientific community in 1986 and only since 1990 the area was declared an official archaeological site. But what is this sort of pyramid? How and when was flooded? is really the work of man or is a freak of nature? Newton has asked Ma-Saak Kimura, a professor at the University of Oceano-graphy of the Ryukyu and "academic father" of the site. "The irregularity of the structure and size have made it difficult to reconstruct the appearance of the whole," begins the scholar. "And the harsh environmental conditions (such as the Kuroshio, the strong warm current in the Pacific and the monsoons which prevent diving for many months a year) has delayed operations. Finally, "says Kimura," we were able to measure the structure: it is one huge block of rock along 200 feet wide and 150 high around 20. To establish at which age they go back we need to do analysis. The complete submersion of the place would have been caused by rising sea levels since the last ice age, ie at least 9-10000 years ago, but it is also plausible that this is a newer building, built between 4000 and 400 BC. When underwater guided tour Kimura begins to describe "his" palace, it seems almost to swim among the most important parts of the structure. "The first thing you notice in the lower section is a corridor that extends along the entire perimeter and which describes the western, a perfect curve around the wall," said the expert. "From the south façade, the main one, start at the stairs leading to the area of \u200b\u200bthe terraces (West) and what we have called" sacred "(East)." The stairs, with well-defined steps and rather high, are one of the points on which most often suffers Kimura attacks by supporters of the thesis for which we would be faced with the work of nature, not man. "Without doubt the steps of some stairs are tall, some even one meter, so as to be hard to reach for the man. Objection to which I reply that in five steps, three are "fit for human step," perfectly viable. " But this is not the only evidence for the hypothesis that the construction is man, according to the Japanese oceanographer. "The pyramid is a monolith, ie a single block of stone, but during testing we found several additional stones in various shapes and sizes," says Kimura. "That team, focused only in the vicinity of the pyramid, they seem to fragments resulting from processing the structure (for example, the carving of the terraces and staircases). The round stones, however, could be part of a rudimentary system to drain rainwater. They are, in fact, concentrated only near grooves carved on rock surfaces, which probably served as gutters. "Welcome to the sacred place you go up the stairs to the east leads to the highest section, the one that Kimura describes as" sacred. " On this side were found a number of curious relics, of which, however, still unknown functions. "First of all, a" sculpture "like a bird of stone, then a sort of" tank "by the triangular profile carved into the rock," describes enthusiastic scholar. "Finally, a block of stone carved in the shape of a turtle that invokes the so-called kamekobaka (literally" tombs tortoise shell "), also found in Okinawa, the main island of the Ryukyu." In the north, the center of a dais, is the true object of worship, a sort of dolmen consists of a horizontal rock 3 meters by 3 meters, supported by two smaller round stones. Not far from the temple was found another strange finding: a megalith like the famous statues on Easter Island, the Moai. "This is a large oval stone with a series of notches at the top that seem to draw a face," Kimura said. "In the horizontal cracks that are embedded in the eyes are two stones that could represent the pupils." To confirm the hypothesis that it is a temple built by man, Kimura detects a monument to the close proximity of the Tropic of Cancer. "This precise geographic position, in my opinion, it could indicate that the ancient builders" had precise astronomical knowledge. "
But who built this "pyramid"? Kimura will not lean. "The most plausible hypothesis is that it is the work of the population came from the coasts in Southeast Asia following the migration routes of large prehistoric" says the professor. However, with regard to the type of civilization of the men who built the company did not know much. "The findings do suggest a social organization with an advanced development technology: this mysterious people had to be able to carry out building work on a large scale, objects of stone and rock engravings, which may be signs of a pictographic writing system" . Some carvings found at the site of Yonaguni, in fact, are very similar to those of a stele in the Museum of Okinawa's main island of the Ryukyu, but still not dated or deciphered. "One of the symbols of this stele" says Kimura, "seems an underwater temple. If so, it could indicate that the structure had already disappeared in the times of the stela. " The story from the depths are still many mysteries surrounding Yonaguni. It will take time to determine if the "temple" is proof that Colonel Churchward tried for a living. "I do not know whether it is the decisive proof of the existence of the mythical continent of Mu," said Kimura. "Of course, this rock is engraved on an important page of history. We just have to learn to read. "

CeBIT 2010: Intelligent energy management for the home
(PhysOrg.com) - In order to save energy, Consumers Need to Be Able to Obtain up-to-date information about the at Any Time Energy Consumption of Their appliances, and be able to control them while away from home. At CeBIT 2010, Fraunhofer scientists unveil two applications that help consumers manage their power use.
Mobile phone as control center
Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Information Technology FIT in Sankt Augustin are offering an alternative helpful support: They have created an application that displays the energy consumption of individual appliances within the home. This means that consumers can figure out what device guzzles energy, and get a feeling for which appliances consume how much energy - and that will clearly help them save money. The application is based on the "Hydra" middleware developed by the institute, which was upgraded with a specialized energy protocol. "Using his mobile phone as a display and control mechanism, the resident can control the energy consumption of his appliances," says Dr. Markus Eisenhauer, who developed the system. "For instance, he can display consumption per room, turn appliances on or off, or dim the lights." And that's not all: The cell phone's camera image can be used as a "magic lens." Just point the camera to a certain appliance, and, as if waving a magic wand, the appliance's exact wattage is displayed in real-time.

Cappellacci The regional president also announced a series of important commitments for the industrial recovery site Ottana.
For Equipolymers Ottana opens a future with optimism: Yesterday was signed the Memorandum of Understanding between the Region and representatives of Energy and Ottana Indorama. A fill perhaps decisive for the workers of the factory that produces plastic bottles (PET) to detect thanks to the company from the group consisting of Ottana Energy and Thai Indorama became real for insurance of the Region to take action on the structural problems che riguardano energia, trasporti e servizi.
LA FIRMA L'accordo è stato siglato dal presidente della Regione Ugo Cappellacci e dai rappresentanti del gruppo italiano Paolo Clivati e di quello thailandese Aloke Lohia, presenti gli assessori regionali del Lavoro Franco Manca, dell'Industria Sandro Angioni e della Programmazione Giorgio La Spisa. «Oggi abbiamo sistemato un ulteriore mattone - ha detto il presidente della Regione - di una costruzione complessa finalizzata a trovare risposte ad antichi problemi. Abbiamo condiviso con il nostro interlocutore un percorso durato parecchi mesi e oggi abbiamo certificato delle azioni e degli impegni alcuni dei quali messi già in campo. Gli impegni riguardano le soluzioni strutturali a problemi come energy, transport and services that will allow that reality to exist. For the energy we have provided a combined cycle power plant of 400 megawatts. In the province of Nuoro born a photovoltaic park a collaboration between entrepreneur and CRS4. For services - said the head del'esecutivo - the Region has committed to funding process exodus of staff in the 2010-2011 period to allow a reduction of costs. We also promoted a structural solution to the transport of goods and raw materials with a plan to locate an intermodal logistics platform in the territory of Boroughbridge provincial level with the aim of creating an intermodal logistics hub of central Sardinia, and to reduce diseconomies of ' insularity.
