Alife. Thats what you are, if you are able to read your own Wanted poster. And a high reward will push your reputation as well. But you have to act more smart, if you`re well known.
A very interesting building in the middle of Singapore used as retail SPACE for designer furniture. The metallic Typography gives a great reflection.

Discovery was the third Space Shuttle orbiter vehicle to fly in space. It entered service in 1984 and retired from spaceflight as the oldest and most accomplished orbiter, the champion of the shuttle fleet. Discovery flew on 39 Earth-orbital missions, spent a total of 365 days in space, and traveled almost 240 million kilometers (150 million miles)--more than the other orbiters. It shuttled 184 men and women into space and back, many of whom flew more than once, for a record-setting total crew count of 251.
Because Discovery flew every kind of mission the Space Shuttle was meant to fly, it embodies well the 30-year history of U.S. human spaceflight from 1981 to 2011. Named for renowned sailing ships of exploration, Discovery is preserved as intact as possible as it last flew in 2011 on the 133rd Space Shuttle mission.
NASA transferred Discovery to the Smithsonian in April 2012 after a delivery flight over the nation's capital.
I do hand lettered signage for indoor and outdoor spaces. This is an example of how pretty a rusted piece of scrap metal can look!
Vintage geekery at its finest. Never even opened--which means there are no pesky missing pieces. : )
This is part of the Mission: Space exhibit at Epcot. I'm not sure which was more fun, taking these photos or taking a simulated shuttle launch inside Mission:Space. In order to get this shot I set the camera for long exposure, set the self-timer, and placed the camera on ground directly beneath the shuttle. It took some trail and error but I finally walked away with my shot.

USS Intrepid (CV/CVA/CVS-11), also known as The Fighting "I", is one of 24 Essex-class aircraft carriers built during World War II for the United States Navy. She is the fourth US Navy ship to bear the name. Commissioned in August 1943, Intrepid participated in several campaigns in the Pacific Theater of Operations, most notably the Battle of Leyte Gulf. Decommissioned shortly after the end of the war, she was modernized and recommissioned in the early 1950s as an attack carrier (CVA), and then eventually became an antisubmarine carrier (CVS). In her second career, she served mainly in the Atlantic, but also participated in the Vietnam War. Her notable achievements include being the first US aircraft carrier to launch aircraft with steam catapults, and being the recovery ship for a Mercury and a Gemini space mission. Because of her prominent role in battle, she was nicknamed "the Fighting I", while her often ill-luck and the time spent in dry dock for repairs earned her the nickname "the Dry I".
Decommissioned in 1974, in 1982 Intrepid was turned into a Sea-Air-Space Museum in New York City.
Space Shuttle Discovery (Orbiter Vehicle Designation: OV-103) is one of the orbiters from NASA's Space Shuttle program and the third of five built.[4] Its first mission, STS-41-D, flew from August 30 to September 5, 1984. Over 27 years of service it launched and landed 39 times, gathering more spaceflights than any other spacecraft to date.[5]
Discovery became the third operational orbiter to enter service, preceded by Columbia and Challenger.[6] It embarked on its last mission, STS-133, on February 24, 2011 and touched down for the final time at Kennedy Space Center on March 9,[7] having spent a cumulative total of almost a full year in space. Discovery performed both research and International Space Station (ISS) assembly missions. It also carried the Hubble Space Telescope into orbit. Discovery was the first operational shuttle to be retired, followed by Endeavour and then Atlantis.

This is the Alamogordo Space Museum building. I really wanted to go inside but time was running short. I do plan to go back and see what they have as exhibits.
Well almost...this a full-scale test vehicle used for flights in the atmosphere and tests on the ground; it is not equipped for spaceflight.
I love Emil's microwave. I laugh whenever I go into the kitchen.
Today me, Emil and Anna ordered 10 plastic garden flamingos from ebay. I'm sure it will be worth the 80 dollars.
Get it?! :)
“The Man,” also known as “El Hombre” by the… Um… Asian community, hurtled through space and time, passing through many destinations.
These pictures are for the edited (non-Director's Cut) version of my MOCtag installment. There are a lot of details that haven't even been photographed yet. Wait for the Director's Cut ;)
