In an attempt to settle the matter once and for all , nepal this week launched a two-year geodesic survey to measure the himalayan peak .
为了一劳永逸地解决这个问题,尼泊尔这个星期启动了一个两年的大地测量计划来测定珠穆朗玛峰高度。
Well , fuller was a man of one example , the invention he always fell back on to prove every point : the geodesic dome , on which he held the patent .
其实,fuller自己便是一个典型,他也每每提及他拥有专利的穹顶型建筑引以为证。
Like the builders of geodesic domes , they drew on the funding and technology emanating from the center of the american military-academic-industrial triangle in order to build new , playful , emotionally and intellectually satisfying forms of collaboration .
Here , then , we find the same striking blend of the sophisticated-scientific and the natural-communal that buckminster fuller claimed for the geometry of the geodesic dome , and that the silicon valley hackers would eventually claim for the personal computer .
