The huge Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
Completed in 1966, the VAB was originally built to allow for the vertical assembly of the Saturn V rocket for the Apollo program. It is now used for housing external fuel tanks and flight hardware, and for assembling the Space Shuttle (i.e. mating the orbiter to the solid rocket boosters and external fuel tank).
VAB is the largest 1-story building in the world and the fourth largest by volume. It's 160 m tall, 218 m long and 158 m wide. There are four entries to the bays located inside the building, each is the largest door in the world. Each door is 139 high, so the Statue of Liberty could have passed through with ease, and takes 45 minutes to completely open or close.
The flag is 63,7 m high and 33,5 m wide, it was added in 1976 as part of the United States Bicentennial celebrations. The NASA insignia or the "meatball" was added in 2008, when the building was repainted to mend visible damage from years of storms and weathering (it was damaged by Hurricane Frances in 2004).
Held on an evening after classes have ended, Senior Assembly is a traditional ceremony in which the Amherst College faculty honors the graduating students. After a procession into Johnson Chapel, the Dean of the Faculty opens the ceremony, and the President awards prizes and honorary class memberships. Two students and a faculty member address the graduating class, and the ceremony ends with a recessional. Photo by Jiayi Liu

The Assembly Rooms are in central Edinburgh. Originally solely a meeting place for social gatherings, it is now also used as an arts venue and for public events, including the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and the Hogmanay celebrations. There are four rooms that are used year-round and are available for private functions: Music Hall, Ballroom, Supper Room and Edinburgh Suite. The building is protected as a category A listed building as "an outstanding example of the late 18th century public building, continuing its original use"
The Assembly Rooms opened on 11 January 1787 for the Caledonian Hunt Ball. The building was funded by public subscription, costing over £6,000. The prominent site at the centre of George Street, in the centre of the recently established New Town, was donated by the town council. The Assembly Rooms was designed by John Henderson, a local architect, who died young shortly after the building was completed.
The building was extended several times during the 19th century. In 1818 a portico was added by William Burn. Burn and his partner David Bryce designed the Music Hall in 1843. Finally, in 1907, new side wings were completed to designs by Robert Rowand Anderson and Balfour Paul. [Wikipedia]
The kit and its assembly:
This was a rather spontaneous submission for the “Prototypes” group build at whatifmodelers.com in July 2020, originally spawned by the idea of retrograding a Morane Saulnier MS.406 into a biplane with a fixed landing gear, a kind of French Gloster Gladiator. However, this changed when I found a surplus Mistercraft PZL P.7 kit in the stash, which had been part of a combo deal some time ago. Why not use it for a kitbashing and create a late interwar period Polish fighter prototype from the MS.406…?
The MS.406 fuselage comes from the simple Hobby Boss kit, even though some serious bodywork had to be done in order to make the low wing attachment points and the respective large wing root fairings disappear – on the simple Hobby Boss kit, wings and lower fuselage are one integral part, so that some major cutting and PSR were necessary to create a new, “clean” lower fuselage. For the new wings a piece of the cowling in front of the windscreen had to be cut out, the result looks very natural, though, the P.7 wing literally fell into place. The P.7 wings were taken, together with their respective support struts, wholesale from the Mistercraft kit, I just added flaps and lowered them, and I added fairings under the wings for the machine guns – OOB the kit comes with shallow holes that look a bit strange?
The empennage was taken over from the MS.406, but the stabilizers were replaced with the P.7’s, because they were bigger and their shape matches the fin so well. The fixed landing gear is a donor from an ICM Heinkel He 51 floatplane (surplus parts), it was just shortened by about 2mm in order to avoid an exaggerated nose-up stance due to the high propeller position.
The cockpit was taken OOB, just a pilot figure was added to hide the Hobby Boss kit’s rather basic interior.

World's first movies on bird flu - This is the first part of bird flu the virus - This animated, 45 minute, movie arms you with detailed information on virus, it answers those questions that had been bothering you but did not know whom to ask?, like how can a "bird virus" infect human beings, How can the virus jump from chicken to humans? If this H5N1 virus has been present since 1997, why is there no medicine or vaccine available even today to fight it?
