These figures show four propeller-shaped structures discovered by the
Cassini spacecraft in close-up images of Saturn's A ring.
The propellers are about 5 kilometers (3 miles) long from tip to tip, and
the radial offset (the "leading" dash is slightly closer to Saturn) is
about 300 meters (1,000 feet). See PIA07791 and PIA07792 for
additional images and information about these features.
The figures were cropped from two original Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle
camera images and magnified for visibility. The images were then
re-projected so that orbital motion is to the left and Saturn is up. The
unseen moonlets lie in the center of each structure. The figures were
cropped from two original Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera images,
taken during Saturn orbit insertion on July 1, 2004, and magnified for
visibility.
The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the European
Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory,
a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages
the mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington, D.C. The
Cassini orbiter and its two onboard cameras were designed, developed and
assembled at JPL. The imaging operations center is based at the Space
Science Institute in Boulder, Colo.

Rob Harrison puts the Zlin 50 LX through it's paces and creates a crowd pleasing display ofaerobatics. The "Tumbling Bear" fills the sky with twisting and tumbling smoke trails that display Rob's aerobatic talent and the capability of the Czech built Zlin 50LX. Rob honed his aerobatic skills at the Zlin advanced aerobatics school and then ordered his first Zlin 50.
The Zlin 50 LX aircraft is powered by a modified Lycoming AEI0-540-B4D5, of 325+ horsepower, driving a special composite constant-speed propeller designed and built by
Whirlwind Propeller of El Cajon, California. The Zlin is of all-metal construction, and utilizes many different thickness of aluminum sheet, as well as titanium landing gear, to achieve light weight along with incredible strength.

This bicycle with an attached propeller was constructed by a member of the museum team, Rolf Strasser.
Peggy is wearing my new creation inspired by Pierre Cardin's futuristic space age designs. Cardin loved circles, incorporating them into so many of his creations so I took inspiration from that and from various different looks he created. The circles are stiffened with Diamond Glaze glue and attached to the dress panels using fusible web. They can be worn in a variety of ways. This design reminds me of an airplane propeller - I hope Cardin would have approved!

My first time shooting a gig!
Great little airshow with a good selection of 'Acts'. Unfortunately very hot day so we elected to leave early - there was a cold beer in the fridge with my name on it!
This may have been "Old Columbine," Eisenhower's presidential airplane.

Propellers turning in opposite directions kept the torpedo stable and prevented it from rotating in opposition to a single spinning propeller.
