Project Audi Shark the anti gravity car

We’ve finally found something we want more than an Audi R8 FSI, and it gives us hope that we might one day ride something similar to an Imperial speeder bike.

The Audi Shark concept is 26-year-old Kazim Doku’s winning entry into a design competition (.pdf) co-sponsored by Audi and Milan’s Domus Academy. And while the Shark may wear the four ring Audi badge, it’s not a car but a hovercraft. Still, you can see some familiar elements of Walter de’Silva’s signauture style, something Doku told us he tried to emulate when designing the Shark.

"Reflecting Audi’s clean and perfect lines, I designed a super sport automobile," Doku told Wired.com. Indeed. Looking at the Shark, it’s easy to catch glimpses of the R8, TT and S5 but with an ultra-modern twist.

oku says the driving position is similar to a motorcycle "but with a car’s security." LED lights come straight out of the S5 parts bin, but the rear-hinged glass cockpit and air foils come straight out of the future. We also appreciate the side view mirrors, a must when gliding over roadways at breakneck speed.
The young Turk (really - he lives in Izmir, Turkey) already has won three other prizes for automotive design, which is remarkable considering the dearth of an automotive industry in his home country.
Doku credits his success to a lifelong love of car design and "watching the automotive industry [and] carrying the designs to the computer screen." His previous prize-winning concepts include the fabric-skinned Peugeot Ustuminki, which was a finalist in the 2007 Peugeot Design Competition, and first prize in Turkey’s Ototrend contest for a no-doored concept called KA-Design.

Although first prize in the Audi design competition was a 70 percent scholarship to the Domus Academy, Doku says he can’t afford the balance and has withdrawn his application for the Master’s in Automotive Design program. That’s a shame, because this Shark has some bite.

Maybe Audi can give him a job

UFO Sightings in Japan 2011

There has been an increase in UFO sightings in Japan before and after the earthquake in March and April 2011. Wonder why?
'A number of UFO sightings, some coinciding with the natural disasters that happened, were videoed in Japan over the past month.

A week before the 9.0-magnitude earthquake, on March 3, four UFOs were filmed hovering over the Haneda Airport. The four objects, three appearing as individual lights and the other appearing as three lights closely next to each other, stayed still in the sky during the video while airplanes flew by.

During the devastating tsunami and earthquake on March 11, multiple UFOs were sighted. In live news footage of the tsunami, objects moving rapidly against the advancing waves can be seen jetting off into the distance or ascending rapidly out of sight.

In addition, a live CNN news segment shows an object hovering close to the damaged nuclear reactor in Fukushima. The object hovers very low and close to the billows of smoke rising from the reactor, before slowly moving off and disappearing.

UFO sightings coincided with numerous eruptions of the Sakurajima volcano that also occurred on March 11. As seen from several angles of live streaming survey cameras, UFOs hover close to the volcano during its eruption, and bright lights travel at the base of the mountain. A similar sighting was spotted during the eruption on April 3, during which large blue and green orbs were also seen appearing from time to time.

Similar footage of large UFO formations from the same cameras was posted following the volcano's previous eruptions in November and December of 2010. Bright orbs can be seen descending toward the volcano and hovering above it for extended periods of time.

While filming an aftershock around 5 a.m. local time on March 12, a YouTube user saw a diamond-shaped bright light moving in the sky in a way that's different from helicopters. The user commented on YouTube that he or she observed the sky the next day, and couldn't find a star at the place where the UFO was spotted.

On March 21, a black object was seen in the sky, seemingly rotating and changing shape, sometimes being round, sometimes donut-shaped, and sometimes like a spiral wing.
