This photo from Northrop Grumman's clean room in Redondo Beach, California shows the start of the integration process of the James Webb Space Telescope. The telescope is seen hanging from a crane, in the process of being moved over the sunshield.
Here's a recent video about the recent successful assembly of Webb into its final form: youtu.be/Trh9ohPo-cE

Just a few yd / m to the southeast of the parking lot adjacent to Horton Covered Bridge. And facing southeastward, toward a cascade in the eastern fork of the Amnicon River, which starts above the Upper Falls and rejoins the main stream below the Lower Falls.
This is Now and Then Falls. Its name notwithstanding, it has been flowing every time I've visited the park.
We can treat this photo just as another pretty waterfall picture, or we can do that and learn something from it, too.
What the heck. Let's learn something.
A little examination discloses that while most of the falling water has been aerated white by the turbulent flow, there is a little bit of disconcertingly tan-hued water showing, too. That discoloration is evident in the main stream course as well.
Many North Woods creeks and rivers have this or a considerably darker brown tint. While it often triggers the concern of outlander tourists, it's completely natural and does not signal the presence of pollution or toxic chemicals.
In fact, the staining agents are tannic-acid compounds, originally sequestered in the foliage of coniferous trees. When the leaves fall to the ground to form the surficial O Horizon layer known as duff, rain and meltwater leach out this dark substance and eventually it and the water find their way into nearby streams.
The bedrock that provides such a nice platform for the falls is worthy of some scrutiny as well. Its weathered-light-brown to wetted-black coloration, coupled with its massive, nonstratified aspect tell us that we're back in the zone of the basalt of the Chengwatana Volcanic Group. The slightly younger and distinctly stratified Orienta Sandstone is nearby, but this isn't it.
The Chengwatana basalt began as one of the very-late-Mesoproterozoic mafic lavas that were extruded into the Midcontinent Rift about 1.1 Ga ago. For more on the rift itself, and on the park's Douglas Fault exposure, see Part 2 and the posts that follow it in this series.

S - Something Sheer
See-through fabrics are no longer strictly reserved for slinky lingerie and pantyhose. This year’s runways show us that fresh styling and colors can effortlessly modernize sheer materials for daytime wardrobes and evening wear. Show us how your dolls like to integrate these delicate fabrics into their style, too! From brightly colored organza trench coats and puff sleeve blouses to elegant tulle dresses, capes and mesh sunhats, this fabric adds a feminine touch to any wardrobe. Your doll's love of sheer fabrics does not have to be limited to fashion. Think voile drapes, sheer burlap lampshades, and decorative chiffon wall tapestries. However you decide to approach this theme, be sure something sheer peeks through in your photo. Your doll’s fondness for see-through material should be transparent!

This is my collage representing arts integration. This is previous students and each image is a child using the arts to learn another subject matter while discovering more about a specific art form. These art representations include music, movement, theatre, and visual art in various ways. This is close to my heart and when I see these children in their moment of discovery through artistic influence, I truly see arts integration work.

..ecco il mio tentativo di mostrare la IFN intorno a questo celeberrimo duo di galassie nell'Orsa maggiore, M81 e M82, sono riuscito a sommare in due serate 48 frames 800 iso di cui 5 di 10 minuti ottenuti da Fontecorniale 550 mt. e i rimanenti 43 da 5 minuti dal cielo di casa a Lucrezia con Eos 40D su FS60 CB con riduttore di focale autoguida PHD Guiding dithering su AZEQ6 GT SW processing PixInsight 1.8 elaborazione PS CS5 Topaz labs (Detail3 Desnoise5)..
il risultato lo ritengo abbastanza soddisfacente anche se la IFN è percettibile solo dai cieli di montagna,mi accontento
A rather lovely planetary nebula IMHO and a pleasure to image.

For those hard to reach places, technicians and engineers use various styles of lifts and platforms to ensure they have the best angle of approach to work on the James Webb Space Telescope observatory.

1714 West 91st Street is a beautiful example of a Chicago bungalow. Built in 1930, using yellow brick with simple stone ornaments (keystones, window ledge, capitals, et cetera) that were likely painted brown later to integrate with the color scheme of the roof, awnings, and trim.
A bungalow can be defined as "a low house, with a broad front porch, having either no upper floor or upper rooms set in the roof, typically with dormer windows." This house departs from those conventions in ways typical of the Chicago bungalow. The house is very narrow thanks to the width of the city's standard lot. It does have a partial upper floor, with a dormer and windows looking out over the street, and a hipped roof. Rather than a front porch, which wouldn't be useful for a large part of the year, a protruding sun room with handsome windows dominates the front. There is a full basement - made clear by the glass block "window" at ground level - which is unfinished in this case, but could be to nearly double living space.
Bungalows similar to this one were built at a furious pace in Chicago in the 1920s, blanketing swaths of the city and suburbs. They were arguably the first truly modern housing for working-class residents, and quite durable. Their present owners tend to take great pride in maintaining them. Bungalow districts throughout the city, including this small pocket near the Beverly stop on the Rock Island Line, frequently stand out from surrounding areas for the obvious extra care taken.

After the telescope and sunshield were joined, technicians did a careful inspection of the entire James Webb Space Telescope observatory, before moving on to electronically connect all of its various interfaces.

Looking more or less northward. Taken from the park's River View Trail.
The bridge visible above the falls is part of State Route 61, the main coastal road from Duluth to Ontario.
This was the first North Shore state park I ever visited. At that time I remember thinking, "If the rest of the way to the Canadian border looks like this and has this much geology and botany, I'm going to be in heaven." As it turned out, I wasn't disappointed. And Gooseberry makes the perfect point of entry for the whole experience.
This photo is a good introduction to this site for a number of reasons. For one thing, it captures two of this property's five waterfalls. For another, it gives a decent long-range view of the North Shore Volcanic Group basalt flows over which the Gooseberry River spills on its way to Lake Superior. And then again, it's a nice family portrait of the locale's predominant tree species.
The two cascades visible in this image are the Middle Falls and the Lower Falls, and I trust you can figure out which is which. The bedrock under and around them dates to the end of the Mesoproterozoic era. It began about 1.1 Ga ago as mafic lava flows that poured out of fissures onto the stretched and faulted floor of the Midcontinent Rift.
That huge breach, often abbreviated to MCR, extended across Laurentia (ancestral North America) in a great horseshoe shape from at least Kansas up to the Lake Superior region, and then down again to southeastern Michigan, and perhaps all the way to Alabama.
One consequence of the MCR's eruptive activity is the bedrock you see in this park. It comes in three varieties: basalt, more basalt, and even more bloody basalt. But this unrelieved expanse of dark-toned igneous stone constitutes only a tiny fraction of the MCR's total lava output, which may well have been as much as 2 million cubic km (about 480,000 cubic mi).
As far as the North-Woodsy trees here go, the predominant softwood, evergreen, and conifer is that lover of Great Lakes shorelines, Arbor Vitae (Thuja occidentalis). It's also known as Northern White Cedar, though a true cedar it isn't. It's joined by the most common hardwood in view, the white-barked Paper Birch (Betula papyrifera).
Part 19 of this series shows the Arbor Vitae in remarkably intimate association with the North Shore Volcanic Group.
