A truly giant tank, in a Japanese mine, over 100 feet in all directions and filled with 50,000 tons of water, so pure, that divers in it have experienced vertigo. 11,000 photomultiplier tubes line every surface, giving it a spectacular look, as can be seen in this picture, where the tank is half filled and engineers are examining it2 - World's Largest Vacuum Chamber<img src="http://www.uphaa.com/uploads/328/Largest_Vacuum_Chamber.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The Space Power Facility at NASA Glenn Research Center's Plum Brook Station in Sandusky, Ohio, houses the world's largest vacuum chamber. It measures 100 feet in diameter and is a towering 122 feet tall. The facility is currently undergoing construction to support Orion crew exploration vehicle testing in 20103 - NASA Ames Full Scale Wind Chamber<img src="http://www.uphaa.com/uploads/328/a970e83794469dd5a73db59fce804ce0-orig.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The full scale wind tunnel at NASA Ames is one of the seven modern wonders of the world. Forget Google server farm electricity requirements, rumor has it that when the fans on this are switched on, they have to warn the electricity providers for the whole of Silicon Valley.Shown here is a deployment test for the Mars Rover parachute4 - AAR West Coast Aerodynamics facility<img src="http://www.uphaa.com/uploads/328/AAR%20West%20Coast%20Aerodynamics%20facility.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Aside from aircraft designers, the car industry and particularly racecar designers also make use of wind chambers, such as this facility operated by All American Racers.5 - NASA 80×120ft Wind Tunnel Drive Fans<img src="http://www.uphaa.com/uploads/328/6128df779a8be6f848d517bd6f635ac0-orig.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />These are the gigantic fans that drive the full scale wind tunnel at NASA Ames. If you want to get a feel for how big they are, look at the railing around the top right fan. Those small sticks are people6- Langley Hypersonic Wind Chambers<img src="http://www.uphaa.com/uploads/328/4097580d5d2a52c60882cf5b80b8f0e1-orig.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />TheLangley hypersonic wind chambers were designed for speeds of up to Mach 15, which required heated air to stop it liquefying7 - Wind Tunnel National Research Council Ottawa<img src="http://www.uphaa.com/uploads/328/Wind_Tunnel_Aug_02.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Here, the fan itself is the building, the overall look of the wind tunnel, from the exterior, is as if an enormous jet engine had fallen out of the sky8 - The Sudbury Neutrino Detector<img src="http://www.uphaa.com/uploads/328/sudbury_sno_big.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The Sudbury neutrino detector is a 40 foot wide geodesic framed bubble, filled with heavy water and covered in photomultiplier tubes. It sits a mile and a half underground in a mine in Ontario.9 - LSND<img src="http://www.uphaa.com/uploads/328/lsnd.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />LSND consisted of a large cylinder lined with a thousand light detectors and filled with 50,000 gallons of mineral oil and a dash of scintillator material.The LSND experiment ended in 98 and produced a result which contradicted the standard model. That result has since been contradicted by Fermilabs MiniBooNE experiment.Sorry if repostcredit goes to Original uploader</blockquote>
