Doctor Who is astounded! A technology that resists to his sonic screwdriver? «I’d like a word or two with this “Maker”, but I can’t go there right now. I have some unfinished business to attend to. But I know someone who could take you guys to him!»
(to be continued...)
P.S.: Well, I'm not a big fan of flesh heads, so I put a yellow one on the Doctor. Hope you won't be too disappointed... And I’m a little behind schedule with the rest of the photos, so I really can’t assure the same regularity! Please be patient! ;-)
NASA astronaut Bob Hines took this picture of the waning crescent moon on May 8, 2022, as the International Space Station flew into an orbital sunrise 260 miles above the Atlantic Ocean off the northwest coast of the United States. Since the station became operational in November 2000, crew members have produced hundreds of thousands of images of our Moon and Earth through Crew Earth Observations.

As a month of celebrating 20 years of continuous human habitation of the International Space Station draws to a close, we look back on the first mission of the next ESA astronaut to travel to the Space Station, Thomas Pesquet.
The ESA astronaut of French nationality lived and worked on the Space Station for 196 days during his first mission, Proxima, between November 2016 and June 2017. Thomas is one of 18 European astronauts to have spent time on board and will return for his Alpha mission
in spring 2021.
Thomas is seen here working in the European Columbus laboratory that was launched to the Station in February 2008.
The Columbus laboratory is Europe’s largest single contribution to the International Space Station. Permanently attached to the Harmony module, this pressurised laboratory allows researchers on the ground, aided by the Station’s crew, to conduct a wide variety of research in a weightless environment.
Experiments in space science, Earth observation and technology can also be conducted outside the module, thanks to four exterior mounting platforms that are exposed to the vacuum of space. Room outside Columbus for commercial experiments is also on its way, with the Bartolomeoservices due to begin operations soon.
During his upcoming Alpha mission, Thomas will continue this research and experimentation on the International Space Station supported by his crewmates and ground teams from ESA, the US space agency NASA, Russian space agency Roscosmos, the Canadian Space Agency and the Japanese space agency JAXA.
This enduring international partnership is a key feature of the Space Station as nations work across cultures and borders, performing science, research and engineering that has led to breakthroughs in disease research, materials science, Earth observation, our understanding of Earth’s origins and more.
This work helps humankind explore even farther while enhancing life here on Earth – setting Europe in good stead for its journey forward, beyond low Earth orbit to the Moon.

The #ISS once again passes silently overhead, almost unnoticed, apart from one lonely sole by the lake and Orion peering down to see it..

This evening we went out for our view of the International Space Station - awesome to watch as it passed below the planet Jupiter ;0)
The European Space Agency is studying electrical phenomena that occur above severe thunderstorms, including colorful sprays of energy and light known as sprites, blue jets, and elves. Researchers combined the observations with radio measurements from ground-based receivers to confirm powerful bursts of electricity above thunderstorms can generate enough energy to trigger elves. The team also found a correlation between the brightness of blue flashes and electrical current, improving our ability to model energy transfer between the upper atmosphere and the edge of space.
Tracking this activity could enhance severe weather prediction and deepen understanding of the upper atmosphere, a region critical for satellite operations and communication systems.

Isn't she a beaut? Those colors, that shape! The spaceship made it! Benny doesn't care for the communications system not working, he has eyes only for that spaceship, spaceship, SPACESHIP!!
Don't kill me!
I know your face! You were on the news the other day!
What?!
Your broom doesn't fool me, you're wanted scum!
I'm not ! 't was an accident!
Sorry, what?
Darn meteorite that crashed my bloody spaceship. I defi-notly didn't order that!
(sheathes gun)
Oh, then you're the other guy from the news. The hero.
Hero? Me?
Yeah, you caught that meteorite that would've hit the station.

Odd-job man Ben might have wandered a bit off his normal routine, sweeping in a grated corridor? I was too lazy to rebuild the Space Station and re-used that good old corridor that I copied ages ago from Kyle Hardisty. You shoud have seen it every few months in my stream.
Doing a static action shot is really tough. please excuse the transparent bits that keep them both up.
Toy Project Day 2277
Tae Ves (Trill 23) (Symbient 181) Tae is the fourth Trill to host the Ves Symbient, but only the second to become a starfleet officer. the first host was a singer who had a fondness for ancient earth rock music. the second host lived a quiet peaceful life on a nudist planet, the third host was science officer stationed on starbase near the Vulcan system. Tae himself being a bridge officer at the tactical station was honored to be chosen as a recipient of a symbient, he fully expected his personality to change a little once merged with the talents and memories of the three previous hosts. but dancing around his quarters naked and singing old earth songs he's never heard in his life was not what he expected. he is happy with his new self all the same.

This is a stack of 4 exposures for the ISS trail. I just had time to get the camera aimed and focused to grab the last part of the ISS passage. With the 24mm Sigma Art and Nikon D750.
Er, I have no idea, lol. It was going to be a microscale spacestation, then it evolved into a minifig-scale starfighter with some kind of stealth tech. Maybe it's a stealth testbed? I liked the style of contrasting near-future components with some exotic elements. Like you'd use an existing, conventional chassis and attach (grow?) some weird stuff onto it. A hybrid-tech ship.

The Twelve Loops of Goodbye - The End.
It’s fracturing! "Chromatic aberration" tears you apart. The colours are screaming. Red. Violet. Static. I see your hand twitch—fingers flexing—reaching for me! But "soundless shockwaves" push us apart. I am panicking. My mind is a "relentless tempest." I am losing the signal! The silence falls. "Stabilisation Protocol... Engaged." The chaos stops. The geometric grids slide over your face. They smooth out the fear. They delete the glitch. You look perfect. Calm. Ordered. But you aren't you anymore. And I am not me. Then it ends. The screen goes black. Goodbye

Well, I know that there are no brick walls in space (are there? :D), but I loved the idea of a bricklayer robot too much… especially after I found that clip-on 2x2 triangle that I used later on to make the trowel (that is my favorite detail)
So I took this photo of the robot humming while it's building a wall, and that's the explanation of the title.
Waching comet C/2020 F3 as it rises over some noctilucent clouds. Also visible is the planet Venus in the Hyades (lower right), the Pleiades (above Venus) and the ISS passing left of the Pleiades. What a morning!
For this shot I was attempting an ISS moon transit shooting at 18 frames per second. Whilst I did capture some images of the ISS in front of the moon they were very obscure on this occasion, but I did capture this image post transit which worked well. It's just about possible to see the shape of the ISS with the sun reflecting off of its solar panels
The crew of Expedition 72 aboard the International Space Station is beginning the New Year preparing for an upcoming spacewalk to service science hardware and install communications gear. The space station residents also conducted space agriculture and worked on cargo duties at the beginning of the week.
Astronauts Butch Wilmore and Don Pettit rounded out their day conducting science and transferring cargo, working in the Columbus laboratory module thinning Red Romaine lettuce seedlings to learn how to grow food crops on space missions. Wilmore transferred cargo in and out of the Cygnus cargo craft that has been berthed to the Unity module since Aug. 6, 2024.
This image shows a vivid aurora as it streams over the Earth as the space station orbited 273 miles above the southern Indian Ocean in between Australia and Antarctica.

Cryo Unit: The chaotic fringes of mindfulness
I am exposed, vulnerable, navigating the chaotic fringes of my own mindfulness. The name, Subi, echoes in what's left of my mind, my capsule, the barrier that protects the once me. My consciousness, or the part that still functions independently of the cryo-unit's carefully orchestrated systems, is a fragmented entity, a shimmering nebula of thought clinging precariously to the edges of lucidity. It is this fragile kernel of self that the unit is designed to stabilise, to protect from the overwhelming onslaught of the anomaly.
The interior of my reinforced cryo-unit, a masterpiece of bio-engineering and advanced materials, hums with a low, constant energy. Its purpose is singular: to stabilise my consciousness, shield it from the psychological pressures of interstellar travel and the mind-bending realities of the anomaly, and to rejuvenate my body for whatever lies beyond this terrifying void. I feel the subtle shift, the gradual withdrawal from the overwhelming sensory input of the external world as I descend into the de-adenosine sequence. A deep, restorative sleep awaits, a temporary oblivion that will hopefully fortify and restore me for the unknown adventures ahead. The last remnants of my conscious thought dissolve, replaced by the silent, rhythmic hum of the machine and the constant, unwavering beat of my organic heart.

An overhead pass of the International Space Station on May 18, 2021, with the 6-day waxing Moon providing the illumination. The Milky Way in Cygnus runs diagonally across the east at left, with Scorpius rising in the southeast at right.
This is a stack of 4 x 1-minute tracked exposures at f/2.8, and ISO 800 with the Canon EOS Ra. I did not fill in the gaps created by the 1 second interval between exposures. The ground is masked to come from one of the exposures, the first, to minimize blurring from the star tracker motion following the sky. Taken from home as part of testing the TTArtisan 11mm fish-eye lens.

I'm stampolina and I love to take photos of stamps. Thanks for visiting this pages on flickr.
I'm neither a typical collector of stamps, nor a stamp dealer. I'm only a stamp photograph. I'm fascinated of the fine close-up structures which are hidden in this small stamp-pictures. Please don't ask of the worth of these stamps - the most ones have a worth of a few cents or still less.
By the way, I wanna say thank you to all flickr users who have sent me stamps! Great! Thank you! Someone sent me 3 or 5 stamps, another one sent me more than 20 stamps in a letter. It's everytime a great surprise for me and I'm everytime happy to get letters with stamps inside from you!
thx, stampolina
For the case you wanna send also stamps - it is possible. (...I'm pretty sure you'll see these stamps on this photostream on flickr :) thx!

On July 26, 2025, NASA astronaut Nichole Ayers took this long-exposure photograph – taken over 31 minutes from a window inside the International Space Station’s Kibo laboratory module – capturing the circular arcs of star trails.
In its third decade of continuous human presence, the space station has a far-reaching impact as a microgravity lab hosting technology, demonstrations, and scientific investigations from a range of fields. The research done on the orbiting laboratory will inform long-duration missions like Artemis and future human expeditions to Mars.

This is a rare appearance of the unusual STEVE auroral arc on the night of July 16-17, 2018, with a relatively low Kp Index of only 2 to 3. While the auroral arc was visible the ISS made a bright pass heading east. ..This is a blend of a single 15-second exposure for the sky and ground, with seven 15-second exposures for the ISS, but masked to reveal just the ISS trail and its reflection in the water. The ISS shots were taken at 3-second intervals, thus the gaps. ..All with the Sigma 20mm Art lens at f/2 and Nikon D750 at ISO 6400. Taken from Bow Lake, Banff National Park, Alberta.
