NASA's Ultragreen Office

NASA plans to officially open its new Sustainability Base building with a ribbon-cutting ceremony Friday. The 50,000-square-foot building, pictured left and below, is located at the Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, Calif., and is under consideration for the highest U.S. Green Building Council LEED rating of Platinum.

The building uses lightweight insulated metal panel cladding, which meant that less material was required during construction. Designers also chose a steel structure instead of concrete because steel can be more easily taken down and repaired after a natural disaster such as an earthquake.
In addition, the building is designed to regulate itself based on changes in the weather. It's equipped with green IT to enable it to anticipate and respond to changes in sunlight, temperature, wind and occupancy and make adjustments accordingly to keep it as energy efficient as possible, NASA says.

It also includes some of NASA's own technologies, including a Bloom Energy Box fuel cell and a water recovery system originally designed for the International Space Station.

This is the car that in 1954 might have 'killed' the Corvette.
So, Chevrolet, being GM's big sales and profit division, campaigned to GM to 'kill' this car.
Wh en Chevy was coming out with its 6-cylinder sports car with its 2-speed 'powerglide' transmission and side curtains, there was a sports car from Olds with a big old V-8 engine with power windows.
So, GM said, 'no' to Oldsmobile on building this car.
The world's rarest automobile: a 1954 Concept Old's Rocket F88 - the only one in existence.
John S. Hendricks (Discovery Communications founder), paid in excess of $3 million to acquire this 1954 Oldsmobile F-88 Convertible Concept Car.
