Smith Rock State Park, Deschutes County, Oregon.
While gazing at the stars looking for meteor showers, we noticed a strange beam of light that lasted just about 10 minutes around midnight. Surprisingly, it aligned perfectly with the peak of the rock in front of us. I took a couple of pictures of this strange phenomenon, not knowing what it was at that time. Later on, I came to know from a fellow Flickrite (thanks Marsha), that it was a fuel discharge from a Japanese mapping satellite launch! Strange things happen in the sky when you look carefully!

On the 7th April 2016 Hunslet Wagonmaster LM280 is seen on a fuel train near Blackwater Works. This train is used to supply fuel to the plant based on the bog. The Wagonmaster was the standard loco used on the BnM system until replaced by the new build locos in the 21st centuary. Fortunately a number still survive but our relegated to lighter duties.

Because fuel has to be imported to Vancouver Island, it's comparatively expensive. Vancouver Island is a car-oriented culture. The population is low density with a few urban centres - Victoria and Nanaimo having public transit. You need a car to get around and distances can add up.
Hard to comprehend these North American fuel prices from $1.96 to $2.16 a litre. It roughly converts to about $5.00 a US gallon. Given that North America has a lower population density then say Europe, getting from place is getting really expensive.
Keep in mind that North America was designed as a car-oriented culture post 1945. While inner cities are usually well-served with public transit, the overall metropolitan areas are low-density with poor public transit options compared to other continents. In the suburbs, major thoroughfares tend to have acceptable public transit, but the residential areas are poorly served - Bus service is every 30 to 60 minutes, except during rush hours.
CT Coaches fuel their vehicles at commercial filling stations such as this Esso station on Chandag Road in Keynsham whilst Solo YK05CAO has a break from the town service as seen on July 2nd 2018.

Congrats to Commonwealth Fusion on their new round of $84M with Temasek and Equinor joining as new investors.
"CFS has grown significantly since its founding in 2018, with a program to develop high-temperature superconducting (HTS) magnets and design and build the world's first net-energy-gain fusion system, called SPARC. Both are on schedule and below budget."
"Fusion energy is an investment in our future that offers an important path toward combating climate change. Our continued investment in CFS fits strongly within our mission as we seek long-term solutions to address the world's energy challenges," said Steve Jurvetson, Managing Director and Founder, Future Ventures.
"Today’s nuclear power plants split atoms in a process that releases lots of energy, which can be turned into carbon-free electricity. But the current breed of fission reactors come with some important downsides, such as long-lasting radioactive waste and ballooning costs of construction, which have undermined public acceptance of the technology.
Fusion energy is the power that makes stars shine and is the opposite of fission. It unleashes energy by merging atoms together — usually hydrogen isotopes — in a process that generates temperatures exceeding 100 million degrees Celsius. If it can be made to work, the technology comes with the advantage of creating less waste and having a near-unlimited supply of fuel.
The fact Commonwealth Fusion closed its last funding round during the pandemic shows that investors are still focused on addressing climate change, CEO Mumgaard said. “It’s a statement of how the world sees things”.

Seen here fuelling, after working feeder services to and from The Amex stadium, are London Exiles TA1 and L1. TA1 is fresh from repanel and repaint, the complete front end having been replaced due to various patch repairs having been poorly completed in the past. Next week will see the addition of vinyls advertising the private hire side of the Southern Transit business.

All wearing Freight Australia green and gold, broad gauge X41 and T379 frame standard gauge G526 at the South Dynon fuel point.
Undated slide, developed March 1998.
Back seat removed to access the in-tank fuel pump on the Subaru. I bought a unit off ebay, hoping to resolve a weird reading on the fuel gauge and possibly a lean running misfire problem.
I'm in a micro-space mood.
This is for the challenge on the LEGO Microspacetopia group.
Check out the function here.
A KC-135 Stratotanker from the Nebraska Air National Guard's 155th Air Refueling Wing passes fuel to a B-2 Spirit May 22, 2012, over Southern Colorado. The KC-135, first deployed in 1956, is one of the Air Force's longest serving aircraft type. The B-2 fleet is one of the Air Force's youngest, reaching initial operational capability in 1997. Together, these two aircraft and their crews allow the Air Force to reach targets across the globe in a matter of hours. (U.S. Air Force photo by Duncan Wood)
