Testing the deployment of the Sentinel-1A radar antenna in the cleanroom at Thales Alenia Space in Cannes, France, on 21 January 2014. As the satellite is designed to operate in orbit, it is hung from a structure during tests to simulate weightlessness.

The Ultrasonic Test Train at Craigendoran Junction, i know its a bit blurred but what are those reflections on the windscreens ?
A bit of a summer project - that took longer than expected.
Taking two redundant Hornby Mk IIa BFK vehicles and splicing them together a reasonable representation of a corridor first can be made. This can then be used as the basis for Test Car 6.
Finished!

Still on test at the time, a Hitachi "Azuma" IET set runs fast through a heat-hazed New Barnet with 5X21 1322 Kings Cross to Doncaster IEP Depot on 15th June 2018.
At the time, south of York was the only chance to see these units due to problems (now resolved) with the on-board electrics interfering with signalling.

The newest addition to the @DetroitSpeedInc Test Car Family. The DSE 1965 Mustang joins the ever growing number of Test Cars in the DSE stable.
The Car: A 1965 Mustang that will be used as a test bed for new Detroit Speed products.
The Project: The Mustang will be used for testing the prototype Mini-Tub Kit for the rear and a bolt-on speed kit front suspension upgrade.

Testing out big brothers new bed. Hubby got it all put together with the brand new mattress today for my oldest son :) A slightly late christmas present. blogged @ rosinahuber.blogspot.com/2010/12/new-bed-for-boy.html
We acquired a pulsejet engine and SA007 decided it would be fun to try it out.
The engine is fastened to a piece of train rails to weigh it down and prevent actual lift-off. The fuel line is crafted out of electrical wire (with the wires being removed from the jacket). The air intake line is made from CAT 5E network cable (also with inner wiring removed from the outer jacket). The prototype fuel tank was made from a piece of bicycle inner-tube, later we just used a cut plastic bottle. The high-voltage current which ignites the spark-plug is provided by a neon sign transformer.
Actual phrases overheard during construction and test-firing:
* "This (electrical) wire is rated for 300 volts, so it'll probably be okay to use as a gasoline fuel line"
* "This piece of train rails will weigh it down sufficiently to prevent lift-off....probably"
* "With us being boardmembers, shouldn't we put a stop to this?"
* "That length of CAT5E network cable is perfect as an air intake hose"
* "Wait, doesn't this count as a weapon?" (weapons are prohibited from entering the hackerspace)
* "We *do* have the paramedics on speed-dial, right?"
* "I am picturing a couple of nerds desperately running after an escaped pulse-jet-driven drinks cart"
* "Anyway, even *if* it escapes, it can't go farther than the compound gates" (300 metres away)

For the first time in 25 years, staff at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo are making preparations for the highly anticipated birth of an endangered Bornean orangutan. With a breeding recommendation from the Association of Zoos and Aquariums’ Species Survival Plan (SSP), the 19-year-old parents to be, female Batang and male Kyle, bred in January. On Feb. 2, a common human pregnancy test confirmed that Batang had successfully conceived. Earlier today, the Zoo announced Batang’s pregnancy through a broadcast via Facebook Live of her ultrasound; it will continue to provide weekly updates on Batang through Facebook, Twitter and Instagram using the hashtag #OrangutanStory.
Zoo veterinarians have conducted bi-weekly ultrasounds since Feb. 2 and are encouraged that the ultrasounds have shown fetal growth and development, heightening hopes that Batang will give birth for the first time. They are cautiously optimistic that she will deliver a healthy baby around mid-September. However, just like any animal pregnancy, there is a possibility that miscarriage, stillbirth or a complication could occur.
“All of our perseverance and planning paid off when we confirmed Batang’s pregnancy,” said Dr. Meredith Bastian, curator of primates and member of the Orangutan SSP Steering Committee. “Watching her fetus develop over the past few months has been incredibly exciting, and we’re making every effort to ensure our efforts come to fruition.”
For the past three years, keepers have been acclimating Batang to the experiences of motherhood and training her to care for an infant. Building upon behaviors Batang has learned through routine training sessions, keepers presented her with a plush, bean-shaped pillow and an orangutan stuffed animal to simulate a baby. Keepers trained her to hold the “fake” baby upright, carry it around the enclosure and return the pillow baby to keepers through a specially designed “baby box” when asked. Should animal care staff need to evaluate a real orangutan baby’s health, this training would help staff retrieve the infant in a way that is safe and not stressful for the animals. Batang has also been trained to use a breast pump for milk collection in the event she is unable to successfully nurse.
“Training increases the likelihood that orangutan mothers will care for their infants,” said Becky Malinsky, assistant curator of primates. “This training is especially important for a first time mother, like Batang. It is our goal for the infant to be raised by her mother, learning how to be an orangutan from Batang and the other orangutans at the zoo.”
In the event that Batang is unable or unwilling to care for her infant, keepers are training females Bonnie and Iris to act as surrogate mothers. They receive similar training to Batang, but with a slight twist: keepers ask them to bring the pillow baby and present it to the keepers for bottle feedings. Batang is also trained to present the infant for bottle feedings if she is unable to nurse. As a last resort, keepers will prepare a nursery in the event it is necessary for them to hand-raise the baby with the goal of returning the infant to its mother or surrogate as soon as possible.
Native to Indonesia, orangutans live in the tropical rainforests of Borneo and Sumatra. For the past seven decades, humans have cleared land that was originally orangutan territory in order to meet the growing demand for palm oil products, fast-growing pulp wood and food crops leaving orangutans in competition with one another for space, food and mates. Scientists estimate that in the past 75 years, the number of wild orangutans has decreased by 80 percent. The International Union for Conservation of Nature lists the Bornean orangutan as endangered and the Sumatran orangutan as critically endangered.
Visitors can see the Zoo’s six orangutans daily at the Great Ape House and the Think Tank. At the Great Ape House, visitors can meet a great ape keeper to learn about the fascinating world of apes at 11:30 a.m. daily. At Think Tank, staff and interpretive volunteers perform daily demonstrations and lead discussions on research in cognitive science, highlighting current and ongoing Zoo studies at 1:30 p.m. Visitors can also see the orangutans traveling on the O-Line on warm-weather days in the late morning and early afternoon.

Savanah tested for her Orange Belt tonight. She did a great job and made both me and her Pop Pop very proud. Kathy and Mom Mom weren't able to make it tonight so instead of taking a lot of photos, I shot some video with the little point and shoot I have so they could see how well she did.
