In dental radiology this procedure of converting a 3D skull into a 2D flat picture is very common and most of you must have been subordinated to such imaging. Images look almost the same - the only difference is that you get x-rays instead of real photos. An example of a dental X-ray looking exactly like this image can be seen here. The exact way such images are made is described here For you digital freaks: digital radiology becomes common more and more... every digital alteration you might think of is possible nowadays.

Here in Germany, we have two companies building Airships - both for different purposes. One of them is about to file for bankrupcy - just within the next couple of days. While Zeppelin seems to be doing quite well offering flights to the public and building highgly priced Zeppelin Z1, Cargolifter stopped developing their product, the C160 Airship - which was supposed to carry 160 tons of payload - just yesterday. If there is a need for a hangar in the US... there is one spare in Germany pretty soon i guess.
Here are two links to these companies and to an article about cargolifter:
