Fittings for the royal snooze-spot include iPad holders, charging stations, swivel TVs and computer monitors complete with hidden compartments.6 millionNamed after its creator Thomas Tufft.
The Tufft pier table was handcrafted in the 1700s for general store owner Richard Edwards of Lumberton, New Jersey. Medici artisans used a technique called pietra dura to create painterly scenes across the surface of the grand cabinet dotting it with gems and semi-precious stones. The antique table features pierced fretwork and long legs ending in narrow ankles and detailed ball-and-claw feet. The chest is inlaid with semiprecious stones in an elaborate surface decoration.Baldi’s rock crystal bathtub at 1,166,450The Rock-crystal bathtub is nothing short of a masterpiece. Commissioned by Henry Somerset, the cabinet was named after the Badminton House, where he reigned as Duke in Gloucestershire, England.
The chair uses Technogel, a unique polyeurethane material which intends to reduce stress on the back, and Dynatec, a fabric previously designed for Olympic athletes. Each Vividus is built to order and takes upto 10 weeks to reach delivery.
The tub’s designer maintained the natural finish the crystal had on the outside which only adds to it’s aesthetic appeal. The piece is supported by stately legs and crowned with a gilded bronze top. These customised beds priced at 38,000 can go up to 210,000 depending on the materials and accessories chosen for it.Pininfarina’s Aresline Xten Office Chair at 1.You probably don’t think much of furniture when you sink into your comfy chair or bed at the end of a long day but these historic pieces are sure to make you sit up and take notice!

He then recalls one such story when he saw a Nooristani woman extending her hand as if she was seeking alms.“I wanted my wife, for whom I was writing, to really understand the depth of the struggle of my people as I was learning it by being with them.He says he would write to his wife almost every hour.He describes his book as a journey of a young political officer who wanted to bring peace in his country.
Family is number one in our hearts but our nation is just as important to most patriotic people,” he asserts. Pink embossed rabbit hair faux fur fabric Alongside his friend, Commander Ahmad Shah Massoud, Khalili travelled on foot, horseback and donkey, sharing the tales of pain, despair, and despondence of his countrymen and women. The book is an account of the search for ever elusive peace in a country ravaged by war — a war that changed the landscape of the country and the fabric of its society.“Whenever we took a break to try and regain some energy in order to keep going on, I would take out my notebook,” he says, adding his notebooks helped him with that mental strength.
“As I travelled through the high mountains of Afghanistan, I would miss my wife and the only thing that could console my heart, would be to take out my yellow notebook and write the different things that I saw, felt, heard and experienced,” the author says.“It was strange to me to see a woman begging in Nooristan.“In my 13 trips into Afghanistan over the course of the whole jihad, I travelled to every corner and in each one, I had one thing always with me and that was my notebook to my wife.
The inspiration for writing diaries came to him from love of his family and even more so the love for his nation.New Delhi: When Afghan diplomat Masood Khalili travelled through the high mountains to mobilise people against the invading Red Army, he missed his wife and to console his heart, he would take out his notebook and write the things he saw, felt, heard and experienced.“My son, Mahmud, who translated Whispers of War has plans to translate one more of my notebooks. It is a totally different kind of feeling because I travel through the Southern provinces of Afghanistan, which has a different people and culture than people of the North,” Khalili says.According to him, it is very hard to know the real life stories of the people unless one hears these from them.He wrote over 40 notebooks, some political, some military and the others for his wife.

As I turned back, I saw that the woman instantly covered her face with her old black headscarf and kept one hand extended towards me. I took a few steps in her direction and saw that in her outstretched, there were four walnuts,” he recalls. At that moment, one of the men said loudly, ‘Khalili Sahib, she has something for you.

Two scientists in spacesuits, stark white against the auburn terrain of desolate plains and dunes, test a geo-radar built to map Mars by dragging the flat box across the rocky sand. While cosmonauts and astronauts are learning valuable spacefaring skills on the International Space Station — and the US is using virtual reality to train scientists — the majority of work to prepare for interplanetary expeditions is being done on Earth. There are no airlocks.“No matter who is going to this grandest voyage of our society yet to come, I think a few things we learn here will be actually implemented in those missions,” Groemer said.
“These are things I think can’t be underestimated,” Kumar said. But before the US got there first, astronauts like Neil Armstrong trained suspended on pulleys to simulate one-sixth of Earth’s gravity. When the geo-radar stops working, the two walk back to their all-terrain vehicles and radio colleagues at their nearby base camp for guidance. Scientists from across the world sent ideas for experiments and the mission, named AMADEE-18, quickly grew to 16 scientific experiments, such as testing a “tumbleweed” whip-fast robot rover and a new spacesuit called Aouda.But this isn’t the red planet — it’s the Arabian Peninsula.“You can test systems on those locations and see where the breaking points are, and you can see where things start to fail and which design option you need to take in order to assure that it does not fail on Mars,” said João Lousada, one of the Oman simulation’s deputy field commanders who is a flight controller for the space station. They can’t turn to their mission command, far off in the Alps, because communications from there are delayed 10 minutes.
Few animals or plants survive in the desert expanses of the Arabian Peninsula, where temperatures can top 125 degrees Fahrenheit, or 51 degrees Celsius. The desolate desert in southern Oman, near the borders of Yemen and Saudi Arabia, resembles Mars so much that more than 200 scientists from 25 nations chose it as their location for the next four weeks, to field-test technology for a manned mission to Mars. The successful launch of SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket this week “puts us in a completely different realm of what we can put into deep space, what we can send to Mars,” said analog astronaut Kartik Kumar. A blue piece of foam in front of the chin can be used to wipe your nose and mouth. Aerospace corporations such as Blue Origin have published schematics of future bases, ships and suits.Gernot Groemer, a commander of the Oman Mars simulation and a veteran of 11 science missions on Earth, said the forum quickly accepted.“Terrestrial analogs are a tool in the toolkit of space exploration, but they are not a panacea,” said Scott Hubbard, known as “Mars czar” back when he lead the US space agency’s Mars program.The European Space Agency’s list of “planetary analogues” includes projects in Chile, Peru, South Africa, Namibia, Morocco, Italy, Spain, Canada, Antarctica, Russia, China, Australia, India, Germany, Norway, Iceland, and nine US states. And where best to field-test equipment and people for the journey to Mars but on some of the planet’s most forbidding spots?Seen from space, the Dhofar Desert is a flat, brown expanse.“The first person to walk on Mars has in fact already been born, and might be going to elementary school now in Oman, or back in Europe, in the US or China,” Lousada said. “Human’s adaptability in an unstructured environment is still far, far better than any robot we can send to space,” Hubbard said, adding that people, not just robots, are the key to exploring Mars. On the eastern edge of a seemingly endless dune is the Oman Mars Base: a giant 2.
Faux space stations have been built underwater off the coast of Florida, on frigid dark deserts of Antarctica, and in volcanic craters in Hawaii, according to “Packing For Mars,” a favourite book among many Mars scientists, written by Mary Roach.New challengers such as China are joining the United States and Russia in space with an ambitious, if vague, Mars program. Public and private ventures are racing toward Mars — both former President Barack Obama and SpaceX founder Elon Beige rabbit fur faux fur fabric Musk declared humans would walk on the red planet in a few decades.The desert’s surface resembles Mars so much, it’s hard to tell the difference, Kumar said, his spacesuit caked in dust. Space agencies call them “analogues” because they resemble extraterrestrial extremes of cold and remoteness. The cutting-edge spacesuit, weighing about 50 kilograms (110 pounds), is called a “personal spaceship” because one can breathe, eat and do hard science inside it.
The Soviet Union’s 1957 launch of Sputnik ignited a space race between Moscow and Washington to land a crew on the Moon. However, there remain so many unknowns that simulations “are not in any way a replacement for being there,” Hubbard said.The next step to Mars, he says, is to tackle non-engineering problems like medical emergency responses and isolation.. “But it goes deeper than that: the types of geomorphology, all the structures, the salt domes, the riverbeds, the wadis, it parallels a lot of what we see on Mars. Some simulations have helped developed cameras, rovers, suits and closed-loop life-support systems, he said. The Oman team’s optimism is unflinching.NASA used the Mojave Desert to test rovers destined for the red planet but they also discovered much about how humans can adapt. Hostile environments from Arizona to Siberia were used to fine-tune capsules, landers, rovers and suits — simulating otherworldly dangers to be found beyond Earth.
The suit’s visor displays maps, communications and sensor data. Next Thursday, Israeli scientists are to run a shorter simulation in a nature preserve called D Mars.” The Omani government offered to host the Austrian Space Forum’s next Mars simulation during a meeting of the United Nation’s Committee On the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space.4-ton inflated habitat surrounded by shipping containers turned into labs and crew quarters
