This is one of the creepiest game box designs I've seen. The near-headless man in the striped tie is unsettling. Is he married to the blonde with bangles? Who is the woman with the pen. Why can't we see her face? Who is probing whom? Everything about this game concept bothers me. Except for the fact the playing pieces are alphabet cards that make great collage bits.
Bought on a half-price day at Goodwill.

At some point the Probe was supposed to replace the Mustang, luckily this didn't happened.

Seen in the sky over Sydney on 12 August at 1831. Appeared to drift east on the strong wind but must have been too high as it was seen from southern Queensland to Tasmania and apparently was the Parker solar probe launched from Florida. Seen widely in eastern Australia. This photo was taken an hour after the probe was launched on an eastern trajectory from Florida.
still workers on the pad & payload umbilical needs hooking up but early dawn w/Moho & Jool was too good to pass up
So nice I thought it deserved two shots.
You know a car has me in awe, when I actually bother to get out of the comfort and safety of my own car and take proper up close shots like this.
I had my gran in the car when I saw this, and she was quite surprised that I wanted to stop for photos. "Is it expensive?" she asked.

ARM Aerial Facility (AAF) scientist Jennifer Comstock cleans a probe on an instrument attached to the Gulfstream-159 (G-1) aircraft.
From June to October 2013, the U.S. Department of Energy’s Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) user facility deployed the G-1 research aircraft above wildfires in the U.S. Pacific Northwest region, near Little Rock, Arkansas and in the vicinity of Memphis, Tennessee, as part of the Biomass Burning Observation Project (BBOP). The aircraft flew through smoke plumes from forest fires and agricultural field burns—types of “burning biomasses”—to measure various properties of aerosol particles soon after they form and as they change over time.

we've begun launch review today, will take most of this week to complete. Here's a launch image from the water tower
As the ship tumbled through the void, the onboard systems attempted an orderly shutdown. Cascading failures fragmented the efforts. Software dæmons regulating read/write access to the memory spools locked out other hardware, preserving whatever data was left after the kernel panic that had crashed the FTL. The odds of recovery were low, but not so slim that it couldn't be found when drifted through the Sol system in another 80,000 years.
This ship was hard-won out of a box of LEGO that had no sets more recent than the Aquanauts and not nearly as many space kits as I would've liked. Still, Ice Planet lends itself nicely to clean color pallettes and hinged structures.

The atmospheric entry probe part of a representative model of the twin Vega (Вега) spacecraft, part of the Soviet space programme. Vega 1 and 2 were launched on Proton rockets from Baikonur on 15 and 21 December 1984, respectively, heading for Venus, where they arrived on 11 and 15 June 1985, respectively.
Both Vega 1 and 2 deployed probes with designs similar to those of the Venera (Венера) series: both contained a surface lander and a balloon, contained within a spherical container (seen here). After a high speed atmospheric entry at 125km, parachutes were used to slow the probes down, with accelerations reaching hundreds of g. Release of the cap section at 64km altitude revealed the balloon package, after which the balloon was filled an operated at 54km altitude.
The bottom half of the shell was released and then the main chute, leaving the probe to fall on its own from an altitude of 47km for an hour to the surface, slowed purely by aerodynamic braking in the dense Venusian atmosphere. The Vega 1 probe operated for 20 minutes under surface conditions of 467˚C and 95 atmospheres: some of its surface experiments had been prematurely initiated at an altitude of about 18km by a very hard shock in the atmosphere. Vega 2's lander returned data for 56 minutes under conditions of 463˚C and 91 atmospheres.
The two carrier spacecraft then continued on to conduct flybys of Comet 1P/Halley on 6 and 9 March 1986, coming within 8890km and 8030km of the nucleus, respectively. They thus obtained images prior to the flyby of ESA's Giotto on 13 March, helping the latter to target its approach at 596km.

Thanks to Don P. Mitchell (mentallandscape.com) for many of these details.
For the June Monthly build of Imperial Conquest.
This probe was used for spying on hostile planets. If any Rebel suspects were found they would be monitored for a few days and if necessary, would be silenced.
Construction on a new microscopy building at the Center for Nanoscale Materials has been completed and the center should be ready for occupancy by the end of fall 2009. Read more »

The first generation Probe was produced between 1989 and 1992 and Ford hoped the sports coupe would appeal to the British Capri buyer. An attempt was made to market the Probe in the UK as a Capri replacement. In reality it was nothing like the beloved Capri and was more like the Mazda on which it was based. The second generation Probe appeared in 1993 and became a slightly more familiar sight on British roads. The car had a short production life ending in 1997, and Probes are now few and far between.
