德国黑森林蜂蜜致癌:POPSCI世界一周科技趣闻（11.11.28-11.12.2）

“走”过山车

A permanent art installation on the Rhine in Germany, Tiger and Turtle-Magic Mountain is a roller coaster with no coaster (or roller? The name roller coaster is just now starting to seem confusing.). Instead, art lovers/roller coaster enthusiasts are encouraged to walk along the path of narrow steps.

老虎海龟之魔法山是一个没有车的过山车（真的好拗口），位于德国莱茵河，是一个永久艺术作品。过山车爱好者都鼓励在狭窄的台阶上走一圈。

名字的含义：老虎代表高速过山车，行人则像慢吞吞的海龟，只能一步一步走。

Flavor Links

味道搭配

Yong-Yeol Ahn, of Harvard University, created this flavor network that works on the principle that ingredients with similar flavors pair best (examples would be bacon and cheese, or even the more experimental white chocolate and caviar). It's an attempt to figure out what tastes good together and why.

哈佛大学的安庸烈（Yong-Yeol Ahn）创建了一个风味网络，来寻找食物原材料和味道间的联系。（就像熏肉配奶酪，或者白巧克力配鱼子酱）。这是一次尝试，用以发现味道搭配的奥秘所在。

Fire-and-Forget Missiles

“发射后不用管”导弹

The Low-Cost Imaging Terminal Seeker (LCITS), a US Navy missile system, was successfully tested this week, managing to hit two fast-moving nautical targets (also known as boats). It uses an infrared system and can be retrofitted onto older missiles, unlike expensive laser systems. 

“低成本成像终端导引头”（Low-Cost Imaging Terminal Seeker ），即LCITS，是一套美国海军导弹系统，这周试射成功了，它击中两个高速移动的海上目标。这套系统应用红外系统，可以装在老式导弹上，不像昂贵的激光系统那样娇贵。

Beach Space Sky

海滩、宇宙、天空

Not much to say about this shot of the Milky Way taken from the Cook Islands. Just sit back and gaze, and think about sitting on a beach. Or being in space. Your choice!

这张摄自库克岛的银河照片无需过多赘述，只需坐好凝视它，想象自己坐在沙滩上，或在宇宙里，由你定！

Smartphone Car

智能车

The Toyota Fun-Vii, unveiled in Tokyo this week, is one of the most insane, futuristic car concepts we've seen in awhile. It has a giant interactive screen for its sides, so both the interior and exterior can be changed at the push of a button. 

这周，丰田公布了新款概念车Fun-Vii，它的设计理念是“不太遥远的未来”。在车体侧面有一大块互动屏，无论在车外还是车内，只要按动按钮就可以改变车体外观。

Field of Lights

光之田野

At the Holburne Museum in the UK, artist Bruce Munro installed 5,000 glass spheres lit by fiber optics hooked up to a projector. It's designed to mimic a desert bursting into bloom. 

在英国赫尔本博物馆，艺术家布鲁斯芒罗安装了5000个玻璃灯泡，这些灯泡由光纤维网络相联。这个设计用来模拟一处废弃之地重现生机。

Tankboat. Boat-Tank.

坦克船？船坦克？

Sometimes you don't want an amphibious vehicle to look too much like a car. How are people going to know that you're driving a boat on land if it doesn't look like a speedboat? So we applaud the Iguana 29, a speedboat equipped with tank treads

有时候你不想要一辆太像普通车的两栖车。人们看到你驾驶一艘不像快艇的“船”在路上行驶会怎么想？所以我们该为Iguana 29鼓掌，这个装着坦克履带的快艇。

Pigeon Love

企鹅之爱

I can't even. This is a Japanese video game, available for free, that focuses on a school for pigeons, which is already confusing, but then you play a human who falls in love with a pigeon?

这是一款免费的日本电视游戏，主题是企鹅学校，这就有点令人费解了，但接下来你还要扮演人类和企鹅相爱，简直令人抓狂。

BioLamp

生物灯

This lamp uses bioluminescent bacteria to light up a room, a component of the weirdly compelling Microbial Home concept. It's not super light--reading by it would be difficult and eye-straining--but certainly beautiful in an unearthly or subterranean way. 

这盏灯是用生物荧光细菌制作的，能照亮一间屋子，是精灵古怪微生物概念屋的组成部分。它不是很亮，在这种灯光下看书会觉很困难，眼睛也会疲劳，但的确很漂亮，不是吗？

Self-Realizationbot

有自我意识的机器人

When the facial-recognition-bot Qbo is presented with the first image of himself in a mirror, how does he react? Better than I would, I think. 

当这个有面部识别功能的机器人Qbo第一次在镜子里见到自己时，会有怎样的反应呢？肯定比我想象的要好。

Hat of Water

水帽子

Photographer Heinz Maier has a compilation of photographs of water splashes that look like hats. Sometimes only slightly like hats. But always amazing.

摄影师海因茨梅尔编辑了一组水花溅起形似帽子的图集。虽然有些只有那么一丁点像，但总觉得很神奇。
