The Lego City 60430: Interstellar Spaceship, being too small, too ugly, too many visible stud, too simple, etc ...
... I decided to re-do it again LEGO hurt my eyes too much. It tickled my fingers seriously. Worse it's space ! I could not resist.
grognie-furie MODE: ON
To make the flame/cone of the reactor, I used an Indian trick or innovated : NPU ! I used the transparent Dragon eggs, from the Lego Elves series (sets 41171 & 41180)
24132 - Container, Faceted, 4 x 4 x 1 2/3, Dragon Egg Top &
24130 - Container, Faceted, 4 x 4 x 1 2/3, Dragon Egg Bottom
Then I stacked 2x2 or 3x3 transparent-red dishes, to build the inside of the flame/cone.
As a response to the devastating assault launched by the infected Blacktron forces in 2020, the IDC were prompted to develop a new class of Mecha weaponry.
The R&D department was given only one instruction: *** ALL THE GUNS! ***
And thus, the T-REX was born.
T-REX: Tactical Response to Extreme Xenophobia
Technical Specs:
2 main laser cannons, 2 detachable rocket pods, 2 rotary guns, 2 heavy artillery, 2 mixed-use launchers, anti-infantry undercarriage system, and detachable anti-air defenses. Seating two pilots to share the responsibility of driving and destruction, this beast is a FORCE to be reckoned with!

I am honored to have already earned a Committee's Choice Award at our local Bricks Cascade BrickNic for this MOC, and look forward to sharing it in full-action-glory at the next in-person convention in 2022!
We've always defined ourselves by the ability to overcome the impossible. And we count these moments. These moments when we dare to aim higher, to break barriers, to reach for the stars, to make the unknown known.... [C. Nolan, Interstellar 2014]

I was so glad that I was able to see this movie in theaters the day after it came out. It instantly became my favorite movie, and I decided that I wanted to make a Ranger. However, after seeing all the amazing Rangers that others have built, I kind of lost interest for awhile.
It wasn't until the digital release that I decided to try. It's taken me since March to complete this, and I nearly gave up multiple times, but I really wanted a Ranger model in my collection, so I kept with it. Here are the end results. It does have some interior detailing, which was actually easier to do than the exterior. Sadly, I don't have to many Computer panel pieces, so it doesn't have a lot of screen like it does in the movie. Also, one last bit. I tried to scale this based on how big the Endurance is (There is an infographic that shows how big the Endurance -With Rangers- is compared to the U.S. Space Shuttle.) I used that to try and get a rough size for my Ranger model, and while it looks a little large when compared to minifigures, I am quite happy with the results.
I could enjoy imaging of the interstellar comet in the weekend.
The comet was drifting fast toward west northwest in Virgo. Dust coma was small and round. Dust tail was short toward east. Greenish ion halo was small and round. Bluish ion tail was not visible clearly at the date, though there looked bluish area to the west of the comet on this frame. North is up, and east is to the left.
Sun distance: 1.774 AU ( 31% distant compared to the perihelion )
Earth distance: 1.925 AU ( 7% distant compared to the minimum )
Equipment: Takahashi FSQ-130ED, F3 Reducer 0.6x, IDAS Clear Filter, and EOS R-SP4II, modified by Seo San on ZWO AM5n Equatorial Mount, autoguided with Fujinon 1:2.8/75mm C-Mount Lens, Pentax x2 Extender, ZWO ASI 174MM-mini, and PHD2 Guiding with comet tracking on.
Exposure: 8 times x 600 seconds, 5 x 240sec, and 7 x 60 seconds at ISO 1,600 and f/3.0, focal length 390mm
Exposure started at 18:46:48 November 29, 2025UTC.
This frame was cropped 1,346 x 898 pixels of the original 6,720 x 4,480 pixels, and this is comparable to a frame taken with a scope of 1,900mm in focal length.
site: 730m above sea level at lat. 37 09 41 North and long. 139 14 54 East in an empty parking of pre-season ski resort in Okutadami in Uonuma Niigata 新潟県魚沼 奥只見. Higher mountains were covered with snow and beautiful, but there was no snow yet at the elevation. Ambient temperature was around -1 degree Celsius or 30 degrees Fahrenheit. Wind was mild. Atmospheric turbulence was bad, and guide error RMS was around 1.50. Sky was dark, and Sky Quality was 21.53 in SQML. The site was dark toward the east. Local fog interfered at the beginning of imaging session, though weather forecast was nice.
Here is a view of the site at the night:
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light
"Interstellar Highway" - M42 Orion Nebula & Geostationary Satellites
While recently capturing long exposure images of the M42 Orion Nebula I noticed that there were a few satellites that appeared to pass through my images as I took them. These series of photos was taken by a Sony A7siii with a Sony 100-400mm GM lens tracked with a Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer EQ mount. These Satellites are stationary. It’s the Stars and Nebula that are moving. How cool! This photo is a composite of 205 images together.
These stationary satellites are Geostationary or “Geosynchronous” Satellites. They sit 35,786 KM above the earth and are in lockstep with our earths rotation. They are used for communication, weather and navigational purposes.
And no. These are not Elon Musks - Star Link Satellites lol

Light painted toy action again tonight. Shot on the Samyang 50mm manual lens. F22 for the lighting on Kylo Ren and the sweep of purple coolness behind. Blue gel over the lens and changed to F1.4 for the bokeh.
Crop and contrast in LR shot using a cwb.
This is number 251 of my 366.
Technicians test the spring-activated door on the Interstellar Dust Experiment (IDEX) instrument of NASA’s IMAP (Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe) observatory inside the high bay at the Astrotech Space Operations Facility near the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Tuesday, June 3, 2025. The door will remain closed to protect IDEX from contamination during integration and launch. Once in space, the door will swing open permanently to allow interstellar and interplanetary dust to flow into the instrument for measurement. The IMAP observatory will study how the Sun shapes the boundaries of the heliosphere, the protective bubble around our solar system. Launch is targeted for no earlier than September 2025 aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Launch Complex 39A at NASA Kennedy. Photo credit: NASA/Johns Hopkins APL/Ed Whitman

This is the infamous interstellar visitor from another solar system, Comet 3i/Atlas, the designation from this being the third interstellar comet discovered. It passed through our solar system in late 2025 before heading back off into the galaxy and interstellar space.
If this is an interstellar alien spaceship it is well disguised as a comet!
This is from the morning of November 20, 2025 after it had emerged from behind the Sun in late October and was now positioned high enough for a good look and image through amateur telescopes. The comet shows a faint tail to the right of the cyan-tinted head, all typical of normal solar-system comets. It also shows a faint anti-tail pointing to the left ahead of the comet. The comet was travelling along the ecliptic so dust ejected from the comet was spreading along the ecliptic as well. We were seeing its orbit edge-on making the dust more obvious both ahead and behind the comet.
The comet was in Virgo, near the bright star Porrima which is just out of the field at upper left. The comet itself was about 8th magnitude, much brighter than had been predicted. The field is 2.5º by 1.6º.
Technical:
- This is a stack of 19 x 3 minute exposures for the sky, aligned on the stars, blended with ...
- A stack of 10 of those exposures aligned for the comet, which was moving noticeably (almost a comet diameter) from exposure to exposure, due to its rapid motion through space. I removed the stars from the comet images and aligned just the comet to blend it into the star field..
So the comet comes from that subset of 10 comet-aligned images taken over 30 minutes.
All with the Askar APO120 refractor at its native f/7 for 840mm focal length, and the Canon R5 at ISO 1600. Autoguided on the stars. Taken from home in Alberta on a very fine night, November 19/20, 2025.
The Ranger is a reconnaissance vehicle used during the Endurance mission in the spectacular film Interstellar. They are used for transporting the astronauts to Dr Miller's water planet and to Dr Mann's ice planet. Both Rangers in the movie are later destroyed, one in a failed docking attempt by the traitorous Dr Mann, and the other is sucked into the black hole Gargantua.
Hey guys! I'm happy to present my latest model, a near minifig-scale build of the Ranger spacecraft from the 2014 film Interstellar. This is one of my favorite builds I've done since joining Flickr, even though getting the shape and paneling correct was very difficult at times. The vehicle itself is very cool and feels surprisingly real, it's definitely one of the best things about the movie.
If you can, please check out these other angles and shots on my Flickr page!

I have a lot of work to do, to achieve a great night photo, and i am a rookie in that way, but i am glad to know it is possible to me to have a great night shot in the future.
Yuri Volkovnikov, an Interstellar Exoplanet Ekistics (ISEE) Astronaut visits the surface of Gliese 3293 b located approximately 59 light years from our solar system... it's crystalline structured surface moves at random and can be quite dangerous. Studying the surface has led to the discovery of a loose particle based plate tectonics that involves high levels of magnetism. The movement appears to be in patches intermittent with large solid swaths that "float" smoothly over and polish the stones below.

Interstellar matter and dust Banquet of interstellar dust matter and looking at the internal threads of our galaxy somewhere between Centaur Sagittarius and the powerful Scorpio in the constellation Ophiuchus, where the secular horse galloping our imagination inside the stars. The main disc of our galaxy has a diameter of 80,000 to 100,000 light-years, the perimeter 250 to 300 000 light years and a thickness of about 1,000 light years. It consists of 200 up to 400 billion stars. If we define a natural scale and assume that the Milky Way has a diameter of 130 km, the solar system would have a length of 2 mm. The Galactic Halo extends over a diameter of 250,000 and 400,000 light years. As reported extensively in the galaxy structure below, new research has shown that the disk extends much more than we thought until last. Officially, since 2005, the Milky Way is now considered to be a large barred spiral galaxy SBbc type the Hubble sequence (small barred spiral helix) with a total mass of 600 to 3,000 billion solar masses (M☉) [5] [6], comprising from 200 to 400,000,000,000 stars. The galactic disk has an estimated diameter of about 100,000 light years. The distance of the Sun from the center of the galaxy is estimated at 26,000 light years. The disc is protuberant in the center and symperikleietai from the so-called thick disk. The Sun (and thus the Earth and the Solar System) is quite close to the inner ring of the Arm of Orion, local cloud, at 7,94 ± 0,42 kpc from the Galactic Center. The distance between the local arm and immediately nearest, the Perseus Arm, is of the order of 1 · 1019 m (6.500 light years). The Sun and by extension the solar system, located in what scientists call the Galactic Habitable Zone. The direction of the Sun's path (apix or corymb), refers to the direction of the Sun as it travels in the Galaxy. The general direction of galactic motion of the Sun is near the constellation Hercules, at an angle of approximately 86 degrees from the Galactic Center. The orbit of the Sun in the Galaxy is expected to be approximately elliptical with the addition of influences from the galactic arms and uneven mass distribution. We are currently 1/8 of the track before perigalaxio (the shortest distance from the center of the Milky Way). The solar system takes about 225-250000000 years to complete an orbit (one Galactic Year), so speculation has performed approximately 20-25 orbits during its lifetime. The orbital speed of the Solar System is 217 km / sec, ie. One light-year every 1,400 years, and 1 AU in 8 days.
"Everybody good? Plenty of slaves for my robot colony?"
This is my recreation of the slightly sarcastic U.S. Marine Corps tactical robot from the movie Interstellar. This is my first build for the Christopher Nolan Collaborative display for Brickworld Chicago.
Yes, that's all metallic silver tiles, no I don't regret wasting my money 😁
There's something otherworldly when you look up in London, almost sci-fi. I'm not a fan of big cities, two days was enough, give me expansive landscapes and rolling seas any day of the week. I did, however, enjoy mixing up my photography with some architecture work.
