  • During a journey into America's hinterlands, days after the September 11th attacks in New York and Washington DC, a team of New York City Police Department (NYPD) and a US Marshal walks through a barrier after spending a traumatic shift searching for human remains in the 'Pile' of Ground Zero. Making their way through the general public, they have a look of exhaustion and stress. Haunted but still mindful of the enormous task ahead to investigate the crimes committed here, they go towards a welcome rest. The streets are tall above them and the sky a clear blue as the men carry their hard hats with dust masks still around their necks - protection from the then unknown hazardous elements and chemicals in the environment.

  • Hours before a European Space Agency Ariane 5 rocket launch, a computer monitor displays cryogenic data at the CDL3 launch centre at ESA's Space Centre at Kourou, French Guiana. It shows the status of liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen propellant systems within a Vulcain engine. Stored in the launcher tanks and fed to the engine, they react chemically and expand in the engine combustion chamber then forced through the nozzle to provide the thrust that propels the vehicle into orbit. Cryogenic engines utilise propellants that are liquid under cryogenic conditions, at a temperature much lower than normal ambient conditions (-251°C for hydrogen and -184°C for oxygen). The advantage of cryogenic propellants is that they provide the highest thrust performance.
