What Is This Object on the Titan Rocket?

In summary: It looks like a jet engine intake.Air intakes for jet engines are typically very straight and tall, in order to maximize the airflow into the engine.

Ok, then it's bird droppings...

What kind of pier has white railing? :confused:

Can I just guess that it's a pier in general?
It's not a pier, but your back on the right side of the water again. :biggrin:

Looking at the original photo, I'm not sure if it's rust or bird droppings...could be either.

The only way it could be rust is if there is steel...so by you saying that it could be rust means that it must be steel...

Now I really don't know...I was thinking if it is bird droppings then it must be up somewhere high where birds would use it. So I decided it might be railing along some part of some old Victorian style house but then it would certainly not be made of steel...

I don't know...any hints?

Well, so far, you have that it's railing on something (I'm looking for what that something is) and that it's in the general vicinity/category of ships or docks, but not actually either. Hmm...I think I can also give you that you're right that it's up high...somewhat so anyway. I really don't recall and can't tell from the picture what material the part I'm showing is made of, so that's why I can't be sure if it's rust or bird droppings. It's not necessarily steel, but could be some other painted metal, and it is in a place where birds would be.

It's definitely an eye, but I can't tell on what. Maybe a fish? (If I'm right, someone else can take my turn, I'm going to sleep.)

What exactly do you mean by "fish bait?"

The correct answer, of course. :-p

Those rubbery fake little fish for catching bigger fish. Maybe I should bone up on my fishing equipment...

Kind of like these: http://superiortohudson.com/Images/gallery/Fishing/Tackle%20Box%202.htm

Right, it must have been easy if even I could guess it...
:mad: I hope I can muster the brain power to think of the next clue.

It sooo much work though...I finished my summer classes and now that I don't have to find something to do just so I can put off studying I pretty much just want to be goofy...but it's not like the thread will disappear or anything. I can always find it and I promise that soon enough I will... :smile:

What I need is a cure for laziness...for that I would pay at least...scratches head, well at least 10K USD...probably more...

Why don't you try tackling little bits at a time. Start with the specific legistlation since that's most straightforward, then you can get into the constitution that you'll probably need to do research for next time you get a big assignment.
 
  • #134
Well, I can't think of a clue, so someone can have my turn.

You post a picture of something, and people try to guess what it is. Check out the beginning of the thread for examples.

Hooray, I forgot about this game!

This one shouldn't take too long. No random guessing boys and girls!
