Dr. Edward Kelly, with the University of Washington School of Pharmacy, discusses The Tissue Chips in Space project during a What’s On Board science briefing to NASA Social participants at the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on April 29, 2019. The briefing was held for SpaceX’s 17th Commercial Resupply Services (CRS-17) mission to the International Space Station. Kelly and other researchers will send kidney tissue chip models to the space station to understand how microgravity affects kidney function, such as changes in vitamin D metabolism and formation of kidney stones. NASA’s Orbiting Carbon Observatory-3 (OCO-3) and Space Test Program-Houston 6 (STP-H6) are two of the experiments that also will be delivered to the space station on CRS-17. The SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon cargo module are scheduled to launch no earlier than May 3, 2019, from Space Launch Complex 40 on Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida.

NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center Visitor Center in Greenbelt, Md., hosted this month's Sunday Experiment on Nov. 18 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. EST. It was a free afternoon for elementary-aged school children and their families to look at how NASA explores space and studies Earth from space using satellites and other technology.
This month’s Sunday Experiment explored NASA’s Tracking and Data Relay Satellite project. The TDRS project at NASA Goddard is building three new Tracking and Data Relay Satellites: TDRS K, L and M. Nine TDRS spacecraft are currently in geosynchronous orbit. Together they form the space-based communication relay network known as the Space Network (SN).
The SN is made up of seven TDRS spacecraft that are responsible for relaying more than 40 different spacecrafts' data to the ground 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The TDRS constellation is responsible for gathering data from low-Earth orbiting spacecraft such as the Hubble Space Telescope, NASA's Earth-observing fleet of satellites and the International Space Station, and transmitting it to TDRS ground terminals. Once the data arrives at the ground terminals, it is sent out to the spacecraft’s data processing facilities across the country. The communication also works the opposite direction with controllers on the ground using the SN to send commands like “Hey, satellite, turn your camera on!” to spacecraft.
TDRS K is the first of the third generation of TDRS satellites and is scheduled for launch in January 2013. This generation of TDRS will ensure that NASA’s communication needs are met for many years to come.
In addition to celebrating all things science, technology, engineering and mathematics, the Sunday Experiment celebrates major science missions that are managed by NASA Goddard and set to launch in the near future. The Sunday Experiment is a place where children and adults alike can discover the excitement of Goddard through fun and engaging activities.
Sunday Experiment, held the third Sunday of each month, spotlights Goddard's world-renowned science and engineering research, and technological developments. Families leave inspired by the activities, wowed by the scientists and engineers, and excited about Goddard's revolutionary research and technology.

Fluorescent mineral experiments: Precipitates - UVa
FOV: 12" wide
Fluorescent mineral experiments created by precipitation. The rock on the left is a specimen from Franklin containing hydrozincite, calcite and willemite. The plastic bags contain curing samples of precipitates.
Contains:
Hydrozincite (FL Orange/ Blue white >UVab/c)
Calcite (FL Red >UVc)
Willemite (FL Green >UVabc)
Shown under UVa light.
Key:
WL = White light (halogen + LED)
FL = Fluoresces
PHOS = Phosporescent
UVa = 368nm (LW), UVb = 311nm (MW), UVc = 254nm (SW)
'>' = "stimulated by:", '!' = "bright", '~' = "dim"

Started experimenting with tabletop photography. Used 20x16 Acrylic sheet, 2 15w spiral cfl, and my nissin flash.
I tried a lot in this. I put the red into a black/gray drawing, I shaded the bottom part black with a Marker and I used two different ballpoints, one for darker and one for brighter parts. I gotta say I had no motivation left for the red hair ribbon so I didn't shade it too well...
- black and red ballpoint, black marker on DinA 3 paper
working time ~3hours
getting into charcoal, always thought it was a load of shit and only good for life drawing. I was wrong! this is about 6ft you cant really tell cos ive cropped it.
I bought a cheeseburger at a local MC Donalds restaurant. I was curious, if it molds in a wet climate (like in my plastic box), because I read some articles from other people who tried to get their burger molding. They wrote stuff like "Cheeseburger don't mold, they include to many unhealthy substances!", but their burger looked just dry and mold doesn't grow in dry media. MC Donalds burger are able to mold, as my experiment shows now.
Day 1 - the fresh burger

Really had fun with this one! Tried out some albino skin and body blush and I think it blended really well. Not to mention I had my spanker on and I turned Zee's ass into the plumpest lil cherry ~uwu~
Enjoy!

This portrait is taken in my lunch break. I must thank my colleague Nabil,the reason for this picture was his beard. He makes me carfully this morning on his striking face....
I asked him whether he wants to ... He said "Yes" :-)
I take this capture with my Pentax K-5 together with the Tamron 17-50 f2.8 lens. I have take this direct on b/w with green filter.
