The box is roughly 950 square centimeters, meaning that you'd need to fill that box with a perfectly shaped brick of a material that is denser than 33 grams per square centimeter.

Osmium, Iridium, and Platinum aren't more than ~22g/cm2.

I'm excited to give the camera another spin after getting the film counter working and now with the new mirror and clean optics.

Donald #Trump has been fixated in public pronouncements on "retribution," and #MAGA ally Steve #Bannon has invoked a Confederate code phrase - "Come Retribution" - tied in with a plan to take hostage & assassinate Abraham #Lincoln during the #CivilWar, according to Jonathan Karl's new book:
