    Using X-Ray to discover what's under painting's layers

    Leonardo's Mona Lisa is magical - how?

    Scientists at the Louvre Museum used X-Rays to study the thin layers of color Leonardo used to create highlights and shadows BELOW the top layers.. This layering technique created the "come alive experience", and created depth.. a totally unique method of artform for that time period.

    Security ? !! at border crossings, airports -


    Normal X-Ray misses the plastic gun, but backscatter looks at the densities created by x-rays bouncing back to a detector at the illumination source.. Can't hide with backscatter in process.


    Seeing inside vehicles - some can do this while in motion




    Looking inside tires and other "sealed" containers





    Happy flying this Holiday Season
