Aerospace
The candle that burns twice as fast, lasts half as long...
This site has some awesome pictures of Russian Aerospace technology. Not only do they protray the sheer enormity of the Vostok vehicles but, also shows the dilapitated state of the current Russian Aerospace Program. With all the effort the Russians put in during the space race of the sixties and how they were able to accomplish so much in the way of technology ond sheer willpower is overshadowed only by the inability to mainitain such a strong and powerfull program.
It would be great however, if I were independantly wealthy and could A. Go to see these things that close myself or B. Take that old space shuttle and turn it into my house, it would no doubt take wayyyy too much effort time technology to get it to actually fly at this point hehe...

When you eventually someday come and visit us, you need to time it to go over to the Cape and see a launch!!
