CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – The Dust Atmospheric Recovery Technology, or DART, spacecraft is being assembled in a laboratory inside the Space Life Sciences Lab at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
DART will characterize the dust loading and microbial diversity in the atmosphere over Florida during summer months with a special emphasis on their interactions during an African dust storm. DART will be used to collect atmospheric aerosols and suspended microbial cells over Florida and Kennedy. Results will help predict the risks of excessive microbial contamination adhering to spacecraft surfaces. Photo credit: NASA/Dimitri Gerondidakis

Metro contracts its DART (Dial A Ride Transportation) service out to Hopelink. DART is a fixed route service that allows deviations for pickups and dropoffs. APTA calls it demand responsive, but it really only meets the R and not the D.
Like the longer vans, it has standard truck plates, which must mean that Hopelink owns the van, and not Metro. The body is made by Goshen Coach and it sits on a Ford E-450 chassis.

Amazing feathers.
A water bird that is closely related to the Cormorants.
Anhinga novaehollandiae
The Darter's slender body, long, snake-like neck and its pointed, rather than hooked, bill distinguishes it readily from the bulkier cormorants with which it is often found.

Black Darter (Sympetrum danae)
A small heathland and moorland species, and the only UK black dragonfly. The males become extensively black with maturity with a black frons and thorax. Some yellow markings remain along the sides of the abdomen and thorax.
Females and immature males have a yellow abdomen and brown thorax marked with a black triangle on top. The side of the thorax and the lower part of the abdomen is strongly marked in black.
Below you can see a few more shots, including a female and an immature male.
Thank you for visiting my photostream and I hope you have a wonderful Friday and weekend :)

overall - very nice clean setup - the DART poster had plenty of space for the SME. I thought our lighting and camera angles were a little low and cast some strange shadows. Web camera worked fine. Photo by Wade Sisler.
Biologists began collecting data on movement and behavior patterns as soon as the bass were released. In addition to the internal telemetry tags, each bass received an external dart tag. The tag is the same kind used in our other bass tagging studies and displays an FWC phone number and reward for reporting a tagged bass.

The GSM Dart, generally known as the only true South African production car, introduced towards the end of 1957. Not only was it designed and built by South Africans, but it was a little sports car that turned out to be years ahead of its time.
Found this rather early newly emerged common darter dragonfly again in my small pond filter container with the main pump, sitting on a filter brush. I rescued it and gently placed it on one of my bonsai acers by the pond. Natural light.
Darter Anhinga novaehollandiae
You will often see these birds near deep water, sitting with their wings out drying.
"Its feathers soak up water in spaces between them, allowing the bird to reduce its natural buoyancy and swim underwater." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australasian_darter
If you look at this photo full size you will see how soft and fluffy the feathers are!!
