Museum of Science, pictures

As promised, a couple of pictures from my Museum of Science (Boston) visit.

(1) The van de Graff generator with D. and me in a cage as it is struck by "lightning". You can see Franklin's kite in the lower-left part of the picture:

(2) One of the weather radar exhibits, explained by J.
