La cuestión seria es que estamos acabando el mes de noviembre y la cosa no está boyante, que digamos... Aunque a fuerza de ser sincero uno ya no sabe si achacar la escasez a los débiles tráficos o a la persona que deberÃa fotografiarlos. Puesto en cifras, y para que se me entienda, dos mercantes en 25 dÃas...
Cuando la veteranÃa es un grado, o un saco de patatas según se mire, la secuencia es aferrarse a la ley del mÃnimo esfuerzo y máxima comodidad. Te asignas un dÃa de la semana, aguardas y cuando llega asomas la patita por entre las sábanas y compruebas que hace frÃo. Y piensas que con lo bien que se está en la camita va a salir a vÃa Rita la cantaora... Y cuando hace calor pasas porque temes que se derrita el poco seso que te queda.
Sea como fuere dejas que toda la noche vayan pasando pájaros sin que ello te inmute.
Puede que todo ello sea la razón de la insistente subida de churrifotos a mi galerÃa. Sin embargo no es menos cierto que quiero demostrar que aún mantengo, de alguna forma, la ilusión de décadas pasadas. Por eso, y entre retazos del ayer, incorporo algo actual dentro de la panoplia de fotos.
Lo de siempre. Alrededor de las ocho abro los ojos, compruebo que la luz entra por entre la rendijas de la persiana y el pensamiento de horas anteriores se disipa. Se está tan bien bajo la colcha... Pero no es cuestión de permanecer agazapado hasta la hora de comer, asà que a media mañana trinco el bonobús y me acerco hasta este punto. De lo que se trata es de quitarse el mono de encima, evidentemente.
De camino al punto, de repente, me invade la zozobra. "Hoy es viernes y están programados paros tanto en Renfe como en Adif. Buena me espera..." A pesar de ello quiero pasar algo más de una hora y ver lo que se cuece. Y se coció este largo portaautomóviles cargado de Kuga encaminándose a Ford. Oye, y agradecido porque no es demasiado común ver uno de estos puro de cabo a rabo; ya sabéis que lo normal es que vayan en forma de mixtos junto a los azules y los MC.
Total, que para qué más. Recojo los bártulos y a casa de nuevo, dispuesto a que me den de comer y luego dormir la siesta... Por Dios!!, no iban a ser todo trenes...

ESA’s Mercury Planetary Orbiter (middle) and JAXA’s Mercury Magnetospheric Orbiter (top) being arranged in their launch configuration together with the Mercury Transfer Module (bottom) in a so-called ‘fit-check’. While the MPO and MMO are now integrated, the real integration of the MTM will take place after propellants have been added to the modules.

ESA astronaut Luca Parmitano waves from the bus that will transport him and his crewmates from the Cosmonaut Hotel to Baikonur cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.
Luca, NASA astronaut Drew Morgan and Roscosmos cosmonaut and Soyuz commander Alexander Skvortsov will be launched in their Soyuz MS-13 spacecraft from the Baikonur Cosmodrome on Saturday 20 July. This date coincides with the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 Moon landing and marks the start of Luca’s second space mission known as ‘Beyond’.
While in orbit, Luca will support over 50 European experiments and more than 200 international experiments. He is also expected to perform a number of spacewalks to repair the cooling systems of dark matter hunter, AMS-02.
More information about Luca’s Beyond mission is available on the blog. This will be updated throughout his mission, with updates also shared on Twitter via @esaspaceflight.

¿Sabes que es lo que más me gusta? Las sombras y sus caminos secretos, que todo lo esconden, que todo lo protegen.

The raster is a radar band composite of ESA's brand new Sentinel-1 exported from the Sentinel-1 Toolbox into QGIS.
The nice semi-transparent box with drop shadow is achieved through a QGIS composer html item.
