First flown with the Airbus test registration F-WWAE, this aircraft was delivered to JAS Japan Air System as JA8565 in Dec-93. It was sold to a leasing company on delivery and leased back to JAS.
JAS was merged into Japan Airlines Domestic in Apr-04. The aircraft was sold to JAL in Dec-05 and in Oct-06 the 'Domestic' side of JAL was merged into Japan Airlines International.
The aircraft was sold to GA Telesis as N7151 in Dec-10 and was stored at Lourdes (France) before being converted to freighter configuration at Dresden (Germany) in Oct-11.
It was leased to EAT European Air Transport Germany as D-AEAO in Oct-11 and operated on behalf of DHL Airways Germany. Now 30 years old the aircraft continues in service. Updated 30-Jan-24.
Tried my D7100 for some sports shots for the first time. I really like the AF-System because it's way better than the one of the D5100.
One form of the result of long-term work on a system is the arrangement of elements according to its own rules.
The numbering system of the hangers in the wardrobe symbolizes order: each row, each number, follows a common logic. The employee knows exactly where everything should be. The chance of error is minimized.
I see the wardrobe as a visualization of the idea of controlling chaos through internal order.
The BAE Systems Typhoon display was equally as good as any I've seen from the RAF, if not better.
The weapons add a bit more of a menacing appearance to it, I think the RAF should take note!

The cars, originally operated by the Interborough Rapid Transit (IRT) system, entered service in 1917 and worked into the early 1960s. Photo: Metropolitan Transportation Authority / Patrick Cashin
The weather changed very quickly this morning as the sunshine gave way to a big low pressure system moving up from the south. It made for some cool pictures, too bad the sun is gone again though.

Edited NASA visualization of the shape of our solar system (where "shape" means the bubble surrounding the sun and immediate objects, like planets). I like the term "deflated croissant" used in the caption...
Please note this is not an image taken by a spacecraft but a visualization from a computer program.

Original caption: Scientists have developed a new prediction of the shape of the bubble surrounding our solar system using a model developed with data from NASA missions.
All the planets of our solar system are encased in a magnetic bubble, carved out in space by the Sun’s constantly outflowing material, the solar wind. Outside this bubble is the interstellar medium — the ionized gas and magnetic field that fills the space between stellar systems in our galaxy. One question scientists have tried to answer for years is on the shape of this bubble, which travels through space as our Sun orbits the center of our galaxy. Traditionally, scientists have thought of the heliosphere as a comet shape, with a rounded leading edge, called the nose, and a long tail trailing behind.
Research published in Nature Astronomy in March and featured on the journal’s cover for July provides an alternative shape that lacks this long tail: the deflated croissant.
The shape of the heliosphere is difficult to measure from within. The closest edge of the heliosphere is more than ten billion miles from Earth. Only the two Voyager spacecraft have directly measured this region, leaving us with just two points of ground-truth data on the shape of the heliosphere.
From near Earth, we study our boundary to interstellar space by capturing and observing particles flying toward Earth. This includes charged particles that come from distant parts of the galaxy, called galactic cosmic rays, along with those that were already in our solar system, travel out towards the heliopause, and are bounced back towards Earth through a complex series of electromagnetic processes. These are called energetic neutral atoms, and because they are created by interacting with the interstellar medium, they act as a useful proxy for mapping the edge of the heliosphere. This is how NASA’s Interstellar Boundary Explorer, or IBEX, mission studies the heliosphere, making use of these particles as a kind of radar, tracing out our solar system’s boundary to interstellar space.

Some research suggests that the heliosphere has a long tail, much like a comet, though a new model points to a shape that lacks this long tail.

To make sense of this complex data, scientists use computer models to turn this data into a prediction of the heliosphere’s characteristics. Merav Opher, lead author of the new research, heads a NASA- and NSF-funded DRIVE Science Center at Boston University focused on the challenge.
This latest iteration of Opher’s model uses data from NASA planetary science missions to characterize the behavior of material in space that fills the bubble of the heliosphere and get another perspective on its borders. NASA’s Cassini mission carried an instrument, designed to study particles trapped in Saturn’s magnetic field, that also made observations of particles bouncing back towards the inner solar system. These measurements are similar to IBEX’s, but provide a distinct perspective on the heliosphere’s boundary.
Additionally, NASA’s New Horizons mission has provided measurements of pick-up ions, particles that are ionized out in space and are picked up and move along with the solar wind. Because of their distinct origins from the solar wind particles streaming out from the Sun, pick-up ions are much hotter than other solar wind particles — and it’s this fact that Opher’s work hinges on.
“There are two fluids mixed together. You have one component that is very cold and one component that is much hotter, the pick-up ions,” said Opher, a professor of astronomy at Boston University. “If you have some cold fluid and hot fluid, and you put them in space, they won’t mix — they will evolve mostly separately. What we did was separate these two components of the solar wind and model the resulting 3D shape of the heliosphere.”
Considering the solar wind’s components separately, combined with Opher’s earlier work using the solar magnetic field as a dominant force in shaping the heliosphere, created a deflated croissant shape, with two jets curling away from the central bulbous part of the heliosphere, and notably lacking the long tail predicted by many scientists.
“Because the pick-up ions dominate the thermodynamics, everything is very spherical. But because they leave the system very quickly beyond the termination shock, the whole heliosphere deflates,” said Opher.
The shape of the heliosphere is more than a question of academic curiosity: The heliosphere acts our solar system’s shield against the rest of the galaxy.

Energetic events in other star systems, like supernova, can accelerate particles to nearly the speed of light. These particles rocket out in all directions, including into our solar system. But the heliosphere acts as a shield: It absorbs about three-quarters of these tremendously energetic particles, called galactic cosmic rays, that would make their way into our solar system.
Those that do make it through can wreak havoc. We’re protected on Earth by our planet’s magnetic field and atmosphere, but technology and astronauts in space or on other worlds are exposed. Both electronics and human cells can be damaged by the effects of galactic cosmic rays — and because galactic cosmic rays carry so much energy, they’re difficult to block in a way that’s practical for space travel. The heliosphere is spacefarers’ main defense against galactic cosmic rays, so understanding its shape and how that influences the rate of galactic cosmic rays pelting our solar system is a key consideration for planning robotic and human space exploration.
The heliosphere’s shape is also part of the puzzle for seeking out life on other worlds. The damaging radiation from galactic cosmic rays can render a world uninhabitable, a fate avoided in our solar system because of our strong celestial shield. As we learn more about how our heliosphere protects our solar system — and how that protection may have changed throughout the solar system’s history — we can look for other star systems that might have similar protection. And part of that is the shape: Are our heliospheric lookalikes long-tailed comet shapes, deflated croissants, or something else entirely?
Whatever the heliosphere’s true shape, an upcoming NASA mission will be a boon for unraveling these questions: the Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe, or IMAP.
IMAP, slated for launch in 2024, will map the particles streaming back to Earth from the boundaries of the heliosphere. IMAP will build on the techniques and discoveries of the IBEX mission to shed new light on the nature of the heliosphere, interstellar space, and how galactic cosmic rays make their way into our solar system.
Opher’s DRIVE Science Center aims to create a testable model of the heliosphere in time for IMAP’s launch. Their predictions of the shape and other characteristics of the heliosphere — and how that would be reflected in the particles streaming back from the boundary — would provide a baseline for scientists to compare with IMAP’s data.

Probably a german system (Wesumat or California Rohé?). The car is a Mercedes W110, built between 1961 and 1968, I presume that this system is from the 60's.
I borrowed these pictures from here: www.guide-lavage.com/pagetype.asp?pagetype=xml&revue=...
There is a nice article (in french) about the car wash in mercedes-benz history and there is also some other nice photos!
