The Space Shuttle Enterprise flies by the Sandy Hook Lighthouse. The lighthouse is the oldest working lighthouse in the United States. It began operating on June 11, 1764. How far our Nation has advanced in 250 years! Photo by Bill Dalton. For more info about the Sandy Hook Lighthouse go here: www.lighthousefriends.com/light.asp?ID=378

The Spiral Planetary Nebula in the Southern constellation of Musca.
From Wikipedia:
"NGC 5189 (Gum 47, IC 4274, nicknamed Spiral Planetary Nebula) is a planetary nebula in the constellation Musca. It was discovered by James Dunlop on 1 July 1826, who catalogued it as Δ252. For many years, well into the 1960s, it was thought to be a bright emission nebula. It was Karl Gordon Henize in 1967 who first described NGC 5189 as quasi-planetary based on its spectral emissions.
Seen through the telescope it seems to have an S shape, reminiscent of a barred spiral galaxy. The S shape, together with point-symmetric knots in the nebula, have for a long time hinted to astronomers that a binary central star is present. The Hubble Space Telescope imaging analysis showed that this S shape structure is indeed two dense low-ionization regions: one moving toward the north-east and another one moving toward the south-west of the nebula, which could be a result of a recent outburst from the central star. Observations with the Southern African Large Telescope have finally found a white dwarf companion in a 4.04 day orbit around the rare low-mass Wolf-Rayet type central star of NGC 5189. NGC 5189 is estimated to be 546 parsecs or 1,780 light years away from Earth. Other measurements have yielded results up to 900 parsecs (~3000 light-years)"
Image Info:
Image is a combination of narrowband, broadband optical and near-infrared observations captured by the Hubble Space Telescope's WFC3/UVIS instrument in 2012. Colors are false, but have been processed to approximate a "natural" look, with Hydrogen, Nitrogen and Sulfur emissions appearing pinkish red, Oxygen emission appearing blue/green, hot stars appearing blue and cooler stars appearing red. The resulting image is something that looks approximate to the what the human eye would see if they were much more sensitive and the nebula was closer.
Filters Used:
Star Color:
R: WFC/UVIS - F814W (Near-IR)
G: WFC3/UVIS - F606W (Yellow)
B: WFC3/UVIS - F502N (Blue-Green)
Nebula
Sulfur II: WFC3/UVIS - F673N
Hydrogen Alpha/Nitrogen-II: WFC3/UVIS - F657N
Doubly-Ionized Oxygen (O-III): WFC3/UVIS - F502N
Combined with the following pixel math:
R: (0.5*SII)+(0.5*HA)
G: (0.46*OIII)+(0.094*HA)
B: (0.451*OIII)+(0.116*HA)

Samuel Oschin Air & Space Center in LA's Science Center has a new temporary guest named as Space Shuttle Endeavour, until its permanent home is built.
Endeavour came back to California, where it was born, on Oct 12, 2012.
The orbiter Vehicle traveled 125 million miles and completed 25 missions into space, including the first service mission to the Hubble Space Telescope and the first mission to add a U.S.-built component to the International Space Station.
Science Center, LA

The Meteor Interceptor is the workhorse of the Space Aces Starfleet, flying escort duty, scouting missions, and dogfights. With a pair of souped up engines, twin laser cannons, and an Ace pilot at the controls, "Lucky 13" is a force to be reckoned with.

This image shows an object known as HH 151, a bright jet of glowing material trailed by an intricate, orange-hued plume of gas and dust. It is located some 460 light-years away in the constellation of Taurus (The Bull), near to the young, tumultuous star HL Tau.
In the first few hundred thousand years of life, new stars like HL Tau pull in material that falls towards them from the surrounding space. This material forms a hot disc that swirls around the coalescing body, launching narrow streams of material from its poles. These jets are shot out at speeds of several hundred kilometers (or miles) per second and collide violently with nearby clumps of dust and gas, creating wispy, billowing structures known as Herbig-Haro objects — like HH 151 seen in the image.
Such objects are very common in star-forming regions. They are short-lived, and their motion and evolution can actually be seen over very short timescales, on the order of years. They quickly race away from the newly-forming star that emitted them, colliding with new clumps of material and glowing brightly before fading away.

The Trunk Space is a gallery / theatre / music venue / eclectic place, that fits in perfectly on Grand Avenue. But the coolest thing about it has to be the mural on the side of the building. Love this one!

BUILD your own Space Racer and FLY through checkpoints, maneuver around asteroids, and grab powerups as you race towards victory!
You can mix-and-match the cockpit, wings, and thrusters of your Space Racer, and watch your own creation in action as you race against three AI opponents! The white triangle crosshair guides you to the checkpoints that you must pass. Hold the left mouse button to accelerate, move the mouse to steer, and click the right mouse button or press the spacebar to use a powerup. There are two types of powerups: Boosts and Lasers. Boosts make you faster, and lasers can stun opponents in front of you. Watch out: the competition can use powerups too!

I recently acquired two large tubs full of early 90s Lego from Goodwill. It’s a treasure trove of classic parts with stuff that was released before my time (even though a portion of the parts can be described as being in an “extremely used” and condition). This model is the result of my recent purchase.
Even thought I didn’t grow up with Space Police 2 I wanted to try my hand at the theme using basic techniques and minimal use of modern parts. I don’t that have printed prison canopy so instead of a prison cell unit I opted to add in a speeder that is detached from the underside and held with a magnet.
