Jaguar will sell all-electric E-types to eco-conscious fans

Image
The all-electric version of the E-type sports car Jaguar unveiled last year isn't just a concept or a special vehicle only available to royalty anymore. Jaguar has announced that it will offer Zero, the all-electric variant of the E-type, for sale. Yes, it will look just like the iconic 1960s sports car, except its engine and transmission will be replaced with a battery pack and an electric motor designed using I-Pace components. In fact, the automaker will convert existing six-cylinder E-types to EVs for custom ers at its Classic Works facility and will even keep the original components to make sure the process is reversible.

Back in June, I excitedly announced I'm going to VMworld 2018 US, my 7th time attending, and I get to present! My presentation as a VMware employee had been accepted, but my proposal to present at the #vBrownBag was pending, and I didn't really know for sure if an invite from Community Leaders Corey Romero and Elsa Mayer would work out. Turns out not only are all the presentation proposals actually happening, but moments ago, I got word that Corey and Elsa actually managed to get my home lab themed live demo into the VMware Session Builder Catalog as well!

Astronomy Picture of the Day: Messier 20 and 21

Image
Messier 20 and 21 The beautiful Trifid Nebula, also known as Messier 20, is easy to find with a small telescope in the nebula rich constellation Sagittarius. About 5,000 light-years away, the colorful study in cosmic contrasts shares this well-composed , nearly 1 degree wide field with open star cluster Messier 21 (bottom right). Trisected by dust lanes the Trifid itself is about 40 light-years across and a mere 300,000 years old. That makes it one of the youngest star forming regions in our sky, with newborn and embryonic stars embedded in its natal dust and gas clouds . Estimates of the distance to open star cluster M21 are similar to M20's, but though they share this gorgeous telescopic skyscape there is no apparent connection between the two. In fact, M21's stars are much older, about 8 million years old . August 24, 2018 via NASA https://ift.tt/2BI0maN
