GE doesn't just make sci-fi-looking awesomeness: There's also, for example, the halide lamps that illuminate Chauteau Lake Louise in Canada's Banff National Park. Road trip, anyone?

Though this moody photo is actually of one of GE's locomotive engine frames, with just a little bit of imagination it could be the setting for some sort dystopian sci-fi epic. Set on a train, perhaps ?

Another GE Instagram pic that could easily be the setting for an awesome sci-fi movie. These LED testing racks in Cleveland, OH look kind of Matrix-y, huh?

Speaking of The Matrix , here's a screencap from GE's Mr. Smith-starring commercial . What other company's Instagram beautifies your day with some Hugo Weaving ? I ask you.

At the most recent SXSW GE provided Barista Bots to draw pictures on latte foam for sleep-deprived festival attendees. Robot apocalypse fearmongers, fear not: There were no casualties.

You could say we're fans of this picture, in which seven high-powered fans make night at GE's winter testing facility look even cooler. *crickets*

This sci-fi-looking device is called the Panda Warmer, and while it's designed to keep human babies warm, it's still pretty cool that it's labelled as the "Panda Baby Warmer" on Instagram. BRB, going to Google pics of baby pandas.

This locomotive, part of GE's Evolution Series, is shiny, massive, and bright, bright orange. Those are three very good things.

GE Transportation's Super Tugger can pull 440,000+ pounds—over 30 times its own weight. Is it quite literally "more powerful than a locomotive."

GE Aviations' winter testing facility in Winnipeg might look like something out of The Thing , but don't worry, GE's all about improving humanity, not ending it.

And finally: Mr. T (or, well, a sticker of him) visits the plant floor. He's a very good motivating force. I pity the fool who doesn't follow GE on Instagram . [View All on One Page ]
Sometimes you’ve just got to take a break from whatever you’re doing to look at some cool pictures. We spend all day on the Internet here at The Mary Sue, so we know that better than most. Baby animals are all well and good, but to avoid a cute overload I’d suggest turning to GE’s Instagram page for some tech-themed eye candy. Among the gems to be found there: Several pictures that look like they’re right of a futuristic sci-fi movie, even though they’re of things being made today; Mr. Smith from The Matrix ; a robot barista (don’t worry, it’s friendly); and a special appearance from Mr. T (kinda). Take a look at some of our favorites behind the jump, and then follow GE on Instagram for more .
