I just don't know how to take better picture or milky way....
But after watched the Movie Interstellar.... I really want to do something about it... seriously, this is a movie of the year where I still remember every moment when father talk to daughter.
Must go to cinema to watch this movie and please don't download from free sources.

For my friend Connie in Ireland who wanted to know what my Buddy Icon was. Well here it is. The butterflies are real , manipulated in Photoshop. The rest of the image I created in Photoshop. 20 layers later and here it is.
Thank you

This artist's depiction shows the interstellar visitor
'Oumuamua (pronounced oh-MOO-ah-MOO-ah) racing toward the outskirts of our solar system. The object, heated by the Sun (lower right), is venting gaseous material from its surface, as a comet would.
Using observations from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope and ground-based observatories, an international team of scientists have confirmed that 'Oumuamua, the first known interstellar object to travel through our solar system, got an unexpected boost in speed and shift in trajectory as it passed through the inner solar system last year. Researchers suggest this outgassing is one possible cause for 'Oumuamua's slight acceleration.

Generate a hyper-detailed, futuristic scene featuring a massive, interstellar docking platform under stormy metallic skies. A gleaming chrome vehicle—half luxury automobile, half starship—sits at the center, reflecting neon lights and industrial shadows. Behind it looms a colossal space fortress with sprawling towers and a transparent spherical command core glowing with inner circuitry. Emphasize polished metal textures, intricate engine parts, and vast mechanical scale. Cold, moody color palette, cinematic realism, deep depth of field, epic sci-fi atmosphere. 🚀🔧✨
The highly dangerous nature of a Sampler's work requires the most iron discipline and strict adherence to safety protocols. Combine this with each crew member typically having a deep understanding of his work and equipment and you have some of the most competent spacers in the galaxy, for everyone knows an incompetent Sampler is already a dead one.
Samplers are known for running some of the tightest ships in the known galaxy. In 2344, whe a Union ambassador was visitng Sampler 7 on a friendly cultural exchange, he told a Sleigh crew that they had a "near-military" discipline, thinking he was paying them a compliment. By the time his Marine escort had pulled off two ensigns from him, he'd realised his error. This incident is remembered as the "Night of a Thousand Apologies."
But, if Samplers are known for their rigid discipline while on-duty and conducting mining operations, they are also known to celebrate life in its fullest when off-duty.
Indeed, a sun-ship with empty holds coming off-rotation is a completely different ship. To bleed off the stress that comes with one of the most dangerous jobs around, Sampler crews will engage in all sorts of antics. Fart-gas in the ventilation, expanding foam in the shower tanks, food fights and pranks of all kinds are commonplace everywhere but the engine room, which is off-limits.
The crew of the Republic-registered SS Dirty Fracker perphaps took things a little too far. After a particularly taxing mining shift and dispersal of their neutrons, the head chef decided to spike the celebratory meal with Angorian liquor. After an inebriated food fight the crew and captain headed to quarters to sleep it off. The mining shift, however, was up to mischief as usual. The captain woke up to find himself locked in his cabin.
The miners hijacked the bridge by bribng the navigator and helmsman with alcohol and set the course for Altair 7. The off-duty engineering team, meanwhile, had donned spacesuits and EVA'd with buckets of paint and gone over the ship's name, replacing "Fracker" with //CENSORED//.
Once in orbit around Altair 7 (after two marriages and one all-hands brawl), the rogue crew established a geosynchronous orbit above the planetary governor's water yacht. The governor, known for his radical Naturalism, had previously railed against spacers in general and especially Samplers, banning them from the planet.
The crew used the solar shield to create an articial eclipse above the boat, which was currenty hosting the governor's daughter's wedding. Being entirely solar-powered, the yacht quickly depleted its batteries while still out in deep waters.
Only when the governor had paid a healthy ransom and revoked his ban did the crew leave orbit. Incidentally, their departure was celebrated not only by the governor's retinue but also by a tribe of primitive who had heralded the eclipse as the End Times. The first thing the governor did back in port was have a hydrogen-powered engine installed in his yacht.
The captain, who hated seafood (and had thus been fed nothing else), was finally released as the ship arrived at Charlemagne for shore leave. He congratulated the crew on a successful prank, then immediately confined them to quarters on bread and water. He released them after a day and they made landfall together for a bar crawl.
Sampler's oath: "Steel in our blood, our blood in the Steel."
The Stardust Settler in an interstellar traveller designed for more than 70,000 years in deep space. Estimated to travel just close to 3/4 of light speed. It carries a mini fusion star that sheds light on the ship as it travels and creates livable habitats that rotate to create gravity. The Settler carries the Stardust Agitator on it's bow (capable of battle and planetary landing), two solar shuttles, four fighters, and a host of drop shuttles for emergencies and additional planetary reentry. Figures:
Stardust Settler: 140studs or about 44"
With Agitator undocked: 117 studs or about 37"
6 total LED are placed throughout the ship- one in the star, one in the bow as a menacing "eye", three on the rear as blinking thrusters with one additional in the aft bridge. The gravity wheel spins freely through the use of a hand crank the rear of the capital city (future plans may include a motor attachment). This build was started on Aug 31st 2019 and semi-documented via Flickr, Twitch and Discord.

Interstellar landing accomplished, the rocketry rovers await further exploratory instruxion. Cannibals are at rest, crews sated with rocket fuel kocktails, estuary awaits combined assembled assault. Roger!
To me this psychedelic glaze from a late 1960s piece of Poole pottery (a bowl) resembles a solar system going supernova. Colours oversaturated (a little!) to enhance the effect.

The lighting was flat but the clouds were marvelous so I couldn't help but jump out of the Fastpass queue to run some quick brackets before boarding.
4 years later, I finally returned to finish up the Ranger. All the shaping is done, just waiting on some bricklink orders to get everything in the right color. The brick-built solutions I came up with for the windows left me unsatisfied so I'll be printing some stickers to mask them in.
A short brickfilm featuring the model will hopefully be done by early July. Thanks for looking.
Could be Cooper and Dr. Ameilia Brand roaming the vastness of Dr. Mann's frozen planet in Interstellar, and actually that part was filmed here on Svínafellsjökull, an outlet glacier of the vast Vatnajokull icecap in Iceland
Interstellar is a fantastic movie. I love the way it explores the depths of time dilation. And the Endurance is a cool unique looking ship.
I saw a lego version of the Ranger in the link below and thought I'd see if I could make one like his. I think it turned out okay. I put and opening hatch on the back and also gave it landing gear.

Always enjoy these double-mirror areas when they crop up. This was in the gents' toilets at the Showcase Cinema near Reading. Thought it was worth preserving with this iPhone snap to show the infinite feedback ...
