   Opalescent? Iridescent? Translucent?

   Looks like a magnificent, glistening slug.

   Or anyway, slug dreams probably have them doing heroic deeds looking like that.

    Reminiscent of this piece of Australian technology – a silvery rocket car IN THE SHAPE OF A SQUID designed to break the land speed record.

    RMIT is a most reputable engineering/aerospace university, so there must be something vaguely legitimate about this.
