For my new folding project I have to fold modules, which will be connected. These modules remind me of eyes. These two were lying in the sun and I could not resist making this shot of these origami eyes;-))

I built this for an @connlug quarterly build challenge. I built it as a modular section, so ideally I can connect it with other modules to create a larger base. Hope you enjoy! Comments & criticism welcome
やっと商品でけました。

This goes with the previous photo amongst the cotton fields near Corpus Christi, Texas. Taken across a neighboring field, the truck is hauling modules of compressed harvested cotton to the gin for cleaning and processing. The modules are huge, only eight of them fit on a 40 ft flatbed.

Thanks for the Favs and Comments! As a photo enthusiast it's a pleasure to be recognized by my peers. :-)
Der Modulor ist ein von Le Corbusier entwickeltes Maßsystem und stellt einen Versuch dar, in der Architektur ausschließlich am menschlichen Körper vorkommende Längen-Maße zu verwenden.

The rim of a large crater, with some smaller craters within. I originally planned to have this rim be at one end of my base, with the entire base inside the crater. But now I'm thinking of building parts of it outside, e.g. I have a few Windtraps that would make sense to have on the rim, to pick up the maximum amount of wind. Also, I have a force field barrier, that would make more sense to have on the outside than on the inside of the crater...
Coronado Beach — the lifeguard towers there remind me a little of the Apollo Lunar Module.

"This is a model of the Apollo Command Module, which carried a total of 27 astronauts to lunar orbit aboard nine missions between 1968 and 1972. Launched by a Saturn V rocket, the largest and most powerful rocket ever built, the Command Module was the only part of the spacecraft recovered at the end of a mission."

Alright Gentlemen, you know what we are here for. Recover that ACS module, and if you have to, shoot anyone who stands in our way.

So my big project is done. Here's a shot of me sitting behind all the various sections to give a sense of scale. If I can remember how all this goes back together (and I can find a vehicle big enough to carry it), this thing will be at BFVA 2014.
This shows part of a mock-up of the Columbus module of the International Space Station (ISS), located at the National Space Centre in Leicester, UK. The Columbus module is the primary research laboratory for the European Space Agency (ESA) on the ISS.
The interior of this mock-up highlights various scientific and operational racks used by astronauts in space:
Experimental Racks: These standardized cabinets house scientific equipment for research in areas such as biology, fluid physics, and material science.
Operational Equipment: The panels include a variety of control units, monitoring screens, and power supply interfaces necessary for maintaining the module's environment and systems.
Visual Indicators: Many modules feature labels like "Processing Unit" and include specialized components such as Large Area Picosecond Photodetectors (LAPPD), which are used for high-precision timing in imaging and physics experiments.
The real Columbus module was constructed in Turin, Italy, by Alcatel Alenia Space (now Thales Alenia Space) with functional equipment and software designed by EADS (now Airbus Defence and Space) in Bremen, Germany. The module was launched aboard Space Shuttle Atlantis on 7 February 2008, during mission STS-122. Columbus is operated by the Columbus Control Centre at the German Space Operations Center, part of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) in Oberpfaffenhofen near Munich. In 2008, ESA estimated the total cost of Columbus—including construction, ten years of operations, scientific experiments, and supporting ground infrastructure—at approximately €1.4 billion (£1.21 billion).
The National Space Centre in Leicester, is a museum and educational resource located on the north side of the city in Belgrave next to the River Soar. The prominent structure here is the Rocket Tower, which stands 42 meters tall with minimal steel supports and is clad in semi-transparent ETFE "pillows".
The National Space Centre covers the fields of space science and astronomy, along with a space research programme in partnership with the University of Leicester. Many of the exhibits, including upright rockets which are housed in the tower which has become one of Leicester's most recognisable landmarks. The National Space Centre contains the United Kingdom's largest planetarium. It is a registered charity with a board of trustees.

My latest acquisition! I subscribe to the Atlas Obscura newsletter and one day read about this innovative tape measure from Le Corbusier, the master of modern architecture. I had never heard of this Modulor Rule before and found the article to be a very interesting read. And when it mentioned that Princeton Architectural Press and Fondation Le Corbusier had created a facsimile edition of the Modulor Rule I awaited it’s release in September this year and got my very own copy. Which of course fitted perfectly in the Corner of Curiosities. You can read the article here: www.atlasobscura.com/articles/le-corbusiers-modulor-rule
About my Corner of Curiosities: A few years ago I bought a little box with drawers, thinking I would collect a few special bits and pieces in there. I parked this little set on top of my IKEA chest of six drawers which stands in a corner of my apartment. In time, I added more small shelfs, drawers and boxes and began to put curious items on display in all the little nooks and crannies. Quirky little things I mostly find on flea markets, but also get off the net. This corner of my home serves as inpiration, and every once in I while I walk up the IKEA dresser, put my elbows on top and rest my chin in my hands while I let my eyes wander through all these curious things. Moments such as these give spark my imagination and spurs my motivation to doodle in my journals. The collection is’nt all that special, as it’s not very easy finding fairly cheap, quirky and curious things, small enough to fit in the corner. My collection is constantly changing, if I find a new collectible, something else has to go or be moved around - as the corner now more or less is full.
Anywho, I thought I’d dedicate a photo album to this Corner of Curiosities, here on Flickr - probably for no other purpose than to tickle my own imagination :)

A great deal of little variations in the same architectural scheme: windows open, close; doors and so on.
With the expanded workspace, the three modules can now be merged as one and an additional module will complete the facility...

Soudain le réel bascule :
ce qui est maritime devient spatial.
The 20th and final module,
also the biggest of them all.
At last I have my Island.
Before I start building my Fort and sea town I may refine some bits of the landscape first.
The next Deadline is November for another exhibition event.
By then I should have finalized the landscape and added lots of trees and other greenery.
Ce serait mon fond d’écran, si je ne l’avais pas sous les yeux tous les jours :) ! Ces images ont été prises lors de l’amarrage du Cygnus NG-16 le mois dernier et montrent quelques belles pièces de technologie spatiale. En haut sur la photo c’est le module gonflable BEAM, connecté au Node-3 où on trouve également la Cupola - dont les volets de protection étaient ouverts pour suivre de visu la capture du Cygnus. On me dit que le module cylindrique qui fait face à BEAM s’appelle Leonardo, mais franchement dans le métier je n’ai jamais entendu personne l’appeler autrement que PMM. Son ancêtre était utilisé comme soute à fret pour la navette spatiale (on l’arrimait à la station pour ensuite ouvrir le sas et décharger-recharger). Il s’est transformé en partie permanente de l’ISS depuis, on s’en sert pour stocker du matériel… et nos poubelles. En bas pour les observateurs : le module JEM / Kibo de la JAXA avec son autocollant « Japan ». Il possède une plateforme extérieure pour les expériences exposées au vide de l’espace, et même son propre bras robotique !
My kind of phone background! These images were taken during Cygnus NG-16 docking last month. What you are looking at are beautiful pieces of astounding and reliable space technology, the best humans have to offer! On the first image from the top you can see the Bigelow Expandable Air Module (yes, inflatable) connected to Node-3 that has Cupola on it (with the shutters open, for Cygnus docking robotic operations). The smoother cylinder is PMM (Leonardo) a now-permanent storage space that used to fly up and down with the Space Shuttle. In the background we have JEM, or Kibo as some call it, neatly branded with the JAPAN sticker, JAXA :) The part sticking out of JEM is the exterior platform that researchers can access through its mini-airlock.
