Messier 3 is a globular cluster made up of around half a million stars found in the constellation Canes Venatici. This type of cluster acts like a satellite to its parent galaxy, orbiting above the galactic plane rather than being located in the galaxy's disk like the less dense open clusters. Clusters like this are common, M3 is one of about 150 globular clusters that belong to the Milky Way galaxy, not many compared to the amount that belong to some galaxies, there are over 13,000 globular clusters orbiting the supergiant elliptical galaxy M87 for example. Messier 3 is thought to be around 8 billion years old, but like all globs, how they form exactly is still unknown.

A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they’ve got planes and trains and cars
I’d walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us
And we'll just laugh along because
We know that none of them have felt this way ...

Hello angels <3
First of all, thank you Marcy for this picture :) It's gorgeous!

Technology image of the week highlights ESA’s double-satellite Proba-3 mission that will be flying where no previous member of the Proba minisatellite family has gone before – up to 60 000 km away, a seventh of the way to the Moon.
Set for launch in 2019, the two satellites will be launched together into a highly elliptical or elongated orbit, ranging from an perigee (low point) of 600 km up to an apogee (high point) of 60 000 km.
“This long 19.7 hour orbit will allow us to maintain sustained contact with the two satellites using a single ground station,” explains Agnes Mestreau-Garreau, Proba-3 project manager.
“And around the high point of the orbit we will be able to spend around six hours on solar observation or devoted to experimental formation flying manoeuvres.”
The latest member of ESA’s experimental Proba minisatellite family, Proba-3’s paired satellites will manoeuvre relative to each other with millimetre and fraction-of-a-degree precision, intended to serve as the virtual equivalent of a giant structure in space and so open up a whole new way of running space missions.
As has become traditional with Proba missions, the success of Proba-3’s technology will be proven through acquiring high-quality scientific data. In this case, the smaller ‘occulter’ satellite will blot out the Sun’s fiery disc as viewed by the larger ‘coronagraph’ satellite, revealing mysterious regions of our parent star’s ghostly ‘corona’, or outer atmosphere.
When in Sun-observing mode, the two satellites will maintain formation exactly 150 m apart, lined up with the Sun so the occulter casts a shadow across the face of the coronagraph, blocking out solar glare to come closer to the Sun’s fiery surface than ever before, other than during frustratingly brief terrestrial solar eclipses.
The challenge is in keeping the satellites safely controlled and correctly positioned relative to each other. This will be accomplished using various new technologies, including bespoke formation-flying software, relative GPS information, intersatellite radio links, startrackers, and optical visual sensors and optical metrologies for close-up manoeuvring.
Fifteen ESA Member States are participating in the Proba-3 consortium, with SENER in Spain as prime contractor for the satellite platforms and Centre Spatial de Liège in Belgium as prime contractor for the coronagraph.

Always a pleasure to visit Godrevy and another very enjoyable meet up with fellow flickr friend Dom Haughton.
Calm conditions on this particular visit and different view point onto the island.
Thanks very much for viewing. Have a great weekend :)
From dark clouds we get precious water..
From dark mines we get valuable jewels..
From our darkest trials come our best Blessings from God.

And this is the third part of Operation: Broadsword. The whole point of the OP is to capture an HVT from the "Asghar Tower".
Not sure which photo is better the one with the little bit of green light or the one with only the clear. Please mention your opinion on both the build and which photo.
Thanks.
