Life put together a gallery of the photographs of Fritz Goro, a German-born photographer for Life as well as Scientific American. Goro died in 1986, but was once called "the most influential photographer that science journalism (and science in general) has ever known." The photos are pretty amazing, for their subject matter and for their pure aesthetics. Check out the gallery over at Life.

Is there a point to this article? Wait... It is a link to life magazine.
A subtle thought that is in error may yet give rise to fruitful inquiry that can establish truths of great value.

I see this man in an odd landscape in an odd technology space suit. I suppose he gains much attention for his picture. Maybe for himself he made much money for this picture. I wish him well.
I so no point to the picture and he just looks silly in a funny space suit on an odd landscape.
That is about it.

That suit looks like a wearable Jetson's house.
Science always asks "can we," but doesn't seem to ask "should we."
In the future, everyone will wear one of these. It's called a full head to toe body condom, lol!
