Watching Space shuttle launches is not really my thing but when my friend Paul Aughey set the trip up, how could I pass on going to Florida. The day before the launch, they predicted a 30% chance of a successful launch because of a tropical weather system passing through the area. Paul found a viewing access about seven miles to the north in Mosquito Lagoon (appropriately named I might add). Hundreds if not thousands of fellow kayakers and canoers lined the channel under the watchful eye of the U.S. Coast Guard. I have to admit I got kinda teary-eyed when the thing took off. I think the coolest thing was about 90 seconds after it took off this incredible thunderous roar reached us. It sounded and vibrated like heavy thunder but it lasted for minutes. It was amazing. Too bad my longest lens was on a 300 mm.
Dano said something that made me think of this. A mama duck and her ducklings crossing the, er... road. In SPACE!
SpaceEngine - A free space simulation program that lets you explore the universe in three dimensions, from planet Earth to the most distant galaxies. Areas of the known universe are represented using actual astronomical data, while regions uncharted by astronomy are generated procedurally. Millions of galaxies, trillions of stars, countless planets - all available for exploration. You can land any planet, moon or asteroid and watch alien landscapes and celestial phenomena. You can even pilot starships and atmospheric shuttles.

This is a full-scale replica of a Space Shuttle, so it has never flown. Internal details of the mock-up are not remarkably accurate, though the size and scope of the payload bay is correct. Externally, the mock-up features simulated thermal protection system tiles (bearing numbers, as the genuine flight articles do), paneling that looks like reinforced carbon-carbon panels on the leading edges of the wings, and Michelin tires on the landing gear.
Esse esmalte é lindo, toda vida!!
usei 2 camadas, sem base escura por baixo, e ele cobriu direitinho...
Me encantou o microbrilhos verde esmeralda que no sol tambem reflete o dourado...a cara da riqueza é pouco pra essa belezinha... e olha que não dava nada por ele no vidrinho...comprei só pq tava escrito "optico" no rotulo....rs

Mainly a test for some new parts - also, maybe some flavors from "Galactica 1978".
It was fun to build a 100 % utilitarian ship - hope you'll like it ;-)
Space Shuttle Discovery's Remote Manipulator System (RMS) on the right gets a preliminary workout in preparation for a busy workload later in the 1997 STS-82 mission. The crew members were preparing for a scheduled rendezvous with the Hubble Space Telescope, which would be placed into Discovery's cargo bay with the aid of the RMS arm. A series of spacewalks were then conducted to service the giant telescope.

McDonnell Space Hangar at the National Air and Space Museum's Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center, April 23, 2012. The people appearing in this photo were all part of bring the Space Shuttle Discovery (OV-103) to NASM and readying it for display.

An expansion on my Classic Space in 20 minutes build, this is a simple vignette of the kind found in a number of the Classic Space sets.
Captain Brick is checking things at a remote outpost, and realizes that someone left the fridge open. He's trying to radio Private Click to chew him out, but he doesn't realize that Click also left his radio there on the outpost platform, and that Click is chillin' in the Scout waiting for Brick to return.
Captain Brick: *ksshk" Private Click! You let the dang fridge door open again, and everything froze in minutes!
Private Click (with no radio): *hums* who let the dogs out... hoo hoo
Brick: *ksshk* Private! Come in, Private! Dang it, man!
Not mucn functionality intended, as this study was mostly about the looks of it. As a consequence, it just has the basic opening cockpit and the detachable robot.

My sewing space is one end of our dining table and the cupboard and a nook in our spare room. There are a lot of white walls so really a blank canvas for you partner! I've included a picture of the few storage solutions that I have, which is not many, so really, anything you make will be very welcome!! Thank you!! The quilt is on the spare bed, it makes my mosaic look very pink, I don't need too much pink! ;)

Visual proof that space gets bent when time flies at a carnival.
No, I did not take a ride, but I see the possibilities. Maybe next time.
