The three stars of Orion's belt (Alnitak, Alnilam & Mintaka) form part of an ancient open cluster which contain some 80+ stars.

The satellite in this shot is vague, but looks to have two hull or large panels joined in the middle by another segment , when you zoom in on it. Could be just another satellite,but looks similar to the ISS!

Space Shuttle Endeavour is a retired orbiter from NASA's Space Shuttle program and the fifth and final operational shuttle built. It embarked on its first mission, STS-49, in May 1992 and its 25th and final mission, STS-134, in May 2011.
This picture was taken at SMAK, Ghent.

"Shared Space" is a tool that allows scenographers to create virtual sound spheres in any space in a museum. This new experience offers the public the possibility to merge more deeply with works of art. While wearing headphones, the visitor is at the center of every sound. Depending on their location in the museum, the visitor can focus on a specific sound, story, or sound texture. In this way, senses other than sight, may be aroused and stimulated.

Final preflight checks get underway for a Progeny Mk6 Block I rocket looking to lift off at the next sunrise
I´m not too happy about this one. I feel like it was a great photo and I haven´t been able to get everything out of it...
Hey,I got design of the week, vote to help me make this design print @RYZ
www.ryz.com/shoe/detail/17992/space-aprhodite
Thank you.
On our recent trip one of our stops was the Johnson Space Center. In the center of the exhibit area there were a number of activities around Legos one of them being a "Defend the Castle" cannon video game. I found the juxtaposition of that and the Lunar Lander rather amusing...
Hope you have a great Tuesday!

A scan across Saturn's incredible halo of ice rings yields a study in
precision and order.
This natural color mosaic was acquired by the Cassini spacecraft as it
soared 39 degrees above the unilluminated side of the rings.
Major named gaps are labeled at the top. The main rings themselves, along
with the F ring, are labeled at the bottom, along with their inner and
outer boundaries.
This mosaic was constructed from narrow-angle camera images taken
immediately after the wide-angle camera mosaic PIA08388. Radial
features can be seen in the rings that are about ten times smaller than in
the wide-angle view. This scan is rotated 180 degrees compared to PIA08388
in order to present the rings with distance from Saturn increasing left to
right.
The view combines 45 images -- 15 separate sets of red, green and blue
images -- taken over the course of about 2.5 hours, as Cassini scanned
across the rings.
The images in this view were obtained on May 9, 2007, at a distance of
approximately 1.1 million kilometers (700,000 miles) from Saturn. Image
scale in the radial (horizontal) direction is about 6 kilometers (4 miles)
per pixel.
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.

The dressing room (camarina) behind the añtar.
Inside the dressing room, the ornamentation literally floods the space. Starting from a broken plinth, complex Corinthian columns rise up that structure the axes of the first body. A very broken cornice marks the start of a new body of columns that house niches. Flared oculi collect the braided plaster in vegetable forms and grotesque masks. The covering is an impressive multi-lobed vault in which stipes, niches and pedestals of gilded and polychrome plaster make up the stage where hundreds of allegorical figures, saints, musical angels and cherubs roam, along with elements of the natural kingdom among which can be seen exotic birds, fruits and vegetables. Embedded mirrors, reminiscent of precious stones, intensify the optical effects with their reflections.

A frigid ball of gas in the blackness of space, Cassini's new home,
Saturn, appears cool and serene in this natural color image. The
spacecraft obtained this view as it sped outward from the planet on its
initial orbit. At the left, Saturn's shadow stretches almost completely
across the rings, while at the right, the planet's illuminated face
appears to gaze down at the far-off Sun.
Images taken through blue, green and red filters with the Cassini
spacecraft wide angle camera were combined to create this view. The
images were taken on July 17, 2004, from a distance of about 5.8 million
kilometers (3.6 million miles) from Saturn. The Sun-Saturn-spacecraft, or
phase angle of the image is 93 degrees. The image scale is 346 kilometers
(215 miles) per pixel.

This typewriter still sits in one the English Department offices of the university I work at. There is even a message on the page that rests in it, but I will share that another day.

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.
