Launch of Jupiter-C/Explorer 1 at Cape Canaveral, Florida on January 31, 1958. After the Russian Sputnik was launched in October 1957, the launching of an American satellite assumed much greater importance. When the Vanguard rocket exploded on the pad in December 1957, the ability to orbit a satellite became a matter of national prestige. The ABMA (Army Ballistic Missile Agency) at Redstone Arsenal, Huntsville, Alabama, in cooperation with the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, launched a Jupiter rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida. The rocket consisted of a modified version of the Redstone rocket's first stage and two upper stages of clustered Baby Sergeant rockets developed by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

A comparison between the legendary Galaxy Explorer and the Galaxy Dropship. The Dropships cargo area is bigger and may hold the space buggy from the other alternate build of this set proposal.

No more delays! I’m not quite done with it, but here’s my updated take on the iconic Galaxy Explorer. It has a gear operated landing system, which I will post pictures of later. Hope you enjoy!
is the underestimation of content more than double the overestimation of our wildest dreams?
getting an image explored used to be my main adjudicator of a successful photo. i also became obsessed with the individual stats of the photo, and seemed to get hung up on all statistical trimmings. but i've since realised the concept and the way a photo makes us feel is so much more important than what flickr decides is good by exploring it. photography, like art is subjective, so if no one else likes it, even better.
