Gore panels, provided to Boeing by supplier MT Aerospace of Germany, are stacked and ready for welding on the Gore Weld Tool at NASA’s Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans. Gore panels are preformed aluminum alloy dome segments. They are welded together to form a dome -- the end cap to NASA's Space Launch System core stage hydrogen fuel tank. All of the hardware necessary for building the tank that will be used on the first flight of SLS has been delivered to the facility and is awaiting assembly. SLS will be the most powerful rocket ever built for deep space missions, including to an asteroid and ultimately to Mars. The core stage, towering more than 200 feet, will store cryogenic liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen that will feed the vehicle’s RS-25 engines. Boeing is the prime contractor for the SLS core stage, including avionics.

A Japanese Spider Chrysanthemum, again; a different type.
The name "chrysanthemum" is derived from the Greek words chrysos (gold) and anthemon (flower)
Chrysanthemums, sometimes called mums or chrysanths, are flowering plants of the genus Chrysanthemum in the family Asteraceae.
They are native to Asia and northeastern Europe. Most species originate from East Asia and the center of diversity is in China.
Chrysanthemums were first cultivated in China as a flowering herb as far back as the 15th century BC.
The flower was brought to the Western World in the 17th century.There are about 40 valid species and countless horticultural varieties and cultivars.
For many years, chrysanthemum signifies praise and admiration. A chrysanthemum is considered as a noble flower of the Chinese noble class.
The Japanese hold this flower as the symbol of the sun.
Wishing you a day full of good light and thank you for your visit, M, (*_*)

I fancied testing out the new Zeiss Loxia 50mm f2 today and set off on my way to carry out some Urban Exploration. I am amazed by other people's litter can long quite good through a lens. It doesnt justify their ignorance to the Environment though!

This month's Space Exploration for Bright Metallic!
#Flickr21Challenge #Exploration
Celebrating Flickr's 21st birthday - day 9's theme is Exploration.
"Monument to the Discoveries" (Portuguese: "Padrão dos Descobrimentos")
The monument is located along the Tagus River where ships departed to explore and trade with India and Orient. It celebrates the Portuguese Age of Discovery (or Age of Exploration) during the 15th and 16th centuries. The top three figures are Prince Henry the Navigator (with a model ship in his hands), Ferdinand the Saint (kneeling) and João Goncalvez Zarco (captain of the ship that first sailed to Madeira in 1419).
The monument was conceived in 1939 by Portuguese architect José Ângelo Cottinelli Telmo, and sculptor Leopoldo de Almeida, as a temporary beacon during the Portuguese World Fair opening in 1940. 1958-1960, a new monument was constructed in cement and rose-tinted stone. Although the project was based on Cottinelli Telmo's plan, he was replaced after his death by António Pardal Monteiro as primary architect.
The Bear is surprised at how soft the underside, or gills, of the mushroom is.

Discovered this waterfall while driving through the St Helens area. It was just a short walk to the falls so I decided to head down even though it was getting late. Overall it was worth the EXPERIENCE. I want to go back to explore more comps from below.

Bucas Grande Island situated on the far eastern part of the province of Surigao del Norte. It is popularly known as the municipality of Socorro, a lone island municipality in the entire province. Laced by Mother Nature with relatively peaceful shorelines. It is worthy called a tropical paradise.
There's this warehouse near campus that I've wanted to explore all year but it's always been very well locked up. I was shooting around it with my friends the other day and one of them decides to try the door and lo and behold, it's open. Definitely one of the coolest places I've ever explored. Hopefully I can get in there with a tripod and flash and get more shots before I go back home.
