Ah! That's the man who sold me my Russian keyboard.

What's the steering wheel for?

its for going on the Internet Super Highway!!!

LOL..........portable huh!

How did they know that!!!???

Просто класс!!!! А к какому году относится снимок?

Там написано "50 years from now", значит к 1954. Но некоторые люди сказали, что это подделка, монтаж. На самом деле это якобы фотография пульта управления подводной лодки в массачусетском музее.

The steering wheel is undoubtably for computer games, silly!

I disagree. I think the steering wheel is for opening those doors in the original Star Trek series.
(The human door openers quit because they couldn't stand Shattner).

Government scientists are trying to defend a story that the picture below is a picture of a control panel from an old naval nuclear reactor. On the far right of the picture is meant to be the electric plant control panel where the electrical operator on watch ("EO") controls power flows and breaker positions. Oh yes - I bet it is! And the middle section is where the reactor operator ("RO") sits. He shims the control rods up and down in the reactor core with a lever and on the left is the throttleman station. The large wheel is used to open and close ahead steam valves to the propusion shaft, while the smaller wheel is used to open and close back steam. Come on Jack, I wasn't born yesterday! Apparently the two wheels would be used in conjunction with each other to get the shaft to stop from a forward rotation, and then go in reverse. And the different gauges are specific to each station, with the throttleman concerned about power to steam flow ratios, steam pressures, etc. The RO cares about primary water coolant temperaturtes, pressures, etc. The EO is watching vital bus voltages, and charging the battery with a trickle charge - you've gotta be joking mate



Actually the picture above is a computer enhanced image of the old RAND 'Home Computer' project from back in the mid-50's. The RAND project failed, as we all know, and the RAND PR guys have been trying to cover up the story for years. You can do anything with Paint Shop Pro.......
