News in Science – Da Vinci sketched an early car – 26/04/2004: “The model, on display at Italy’s Institute and Museum of the History of Science in Florence, has proved what has been doubted for centuries: the machine actually moves.
It is the world’s first self-propelled vehicle. It was designed to operate as a robot and could travel for about 40 metres,’ said Professor Paolo Galluzzi, director of the museum.” – ABC Science
What is interesting here is the man’s work sought to improve on man’s capabilites. A combinations of Art and Science… where are the two now ?
That this design actually works is quite amazing. I am still having trouble getting my head around just how ! – zzb
