Launch of the LADEE spacecraft headed to the moon.

Quick dirty edit.
Monitoring the data.worldbank.org/ launch from the hotel room. Ian Ward did most of the heavy lifting from his office in Ayacucho/Peru.
Today, Saturday 18th April 2015, saw Stagecoach promoting their Kite service in Aldershot.
New Enviro200s entered service on the 20 in January 2015, reinvigorating the 'Kite' branding (it having been dampened somewhat by branded buses being repainted and a PVR higher than the number of branded buses).
From 15th March 2015, having been registered with the Traffic Comissioners, the 20 was supposed to loose its number in favour of plain "Kite". Although Surrey CC changed all the timetables and e-plates on stops, Stagecoach did not change the LEDs, and buses continued to show "20".
The launch today mentioned the new name, and saw new Enviro200 37266 (SL64 HXA) parked in Wellington Street, with a stand showing some publicity, and also offering special mini Kites (which did actually fly in today's highish winds). For some reason, Stagecoach Gold Enviro300 27918 (SN63 YPU) was there as well - parked facing 37266.
Here we see 37266 and 27918, as well as the sign promoting the 'world's smallest Kites' which were being offered.
I did see one of Aldershot's more eccentric characters flying one of the Kites further down the road, but sadly missed the shot!
Despite the launch today, buses out in service were still showing "20"!

The Rhino Seeker Missile Launcher is the slowest seeker missile launching weapon with a launch speed of 600 mph. It uses an electronic sight and utilizes a loading port that slides out.
Note: Seeker missile launchers don't need the blast duct in the back to release the exhaust (a way to save our environment)

First launch of Universal Hull prototype boat from trailer! The prototype is 18 ft LOA, 7 ft beam, 8 ins draft and weighs 600 lbs in light mode. Notice the slender forward sections of the boat, and the fine angle of entry underwater. It has a prototype cruising rig with mast set well back and single furled sail. The mast splits into three sections and can be stowed under the side-decks.

Yesterday (Monday 8 November) officers from GMP's Bury Neighbourhood Policing Team, alongside Bury community safety partners and other agencies launched Operation Saturn - a multi-agency proactive response aimed at tackling anti-social behaviour and other crimes across the district.
The launch follows a recent increase in anti-social behaviour and crime involving young people across the district, including a series of knife point robberies in Bury town centre and a violent disorder at Radcliffe Metrolink station last month, both of which resulted in arrests.
The high-visibility operation will see neighbourhood and specialist officers working closely alongside partners and community stakeholders including youth services and TFGM staff to target specific hotspot areas of ASB & crime across the district.
The operation launched yesterday on the Central Neighbourhood and focused on Bury town centre, Bury East, Redvales and Moorside areas including the Bury transport interchange.
Chief Superintendent Chris Hill of GMP's Bury District said: "Operation Saturn is about getting back to basics and working with partners and communities in the right place and the right time to really make a difference.
"This is about high visibility and getting officers out onto the streets to listen to what our communities have to say and to help provide that protective and reassuring presence. It's also about sending a message to offenders that GMP is here and we will take action wherever it's needed to bring this type of offending right down.
"Yesterday's launch was a really positive step in our commitment to protecting our community and I very much look forward to seeing how this develops and improves over time."
Chief Inspector Jamie Collins of GMP's Bury district said: "The feedback from the Bury communities is that they don’t see enough neighbourhood officers policing there areas."
"Operation Saturn is about putting high visibility uniformed officers into the areas of concern and is just one of the positive steps forward in our pledge to prevent and reduce crime, harm and ASB.
"This operation goes back to the basics of policing and focuses on the importance of high-visibility patrols on our streets and ensuring we are engaging with members of the community, to both understand their concerns for the area and also offer advice and tips of how best to stay keep safe from harm.
"Our communities expect to see us on foot across the district and in their neighbourhoods and we are committed to making this a normality and making our Borough a safe and welcoming place to live."
Bury Council’s cabinet member for communities Councillor Richard Gold said: "We know there have been increasing concerns from residents about anti-social behaviour and it's important that residents feel safe and secure when they're out and about in their own homes. This initiative is great because will help to target those hot spot locations, and with lots of visible officers, will help in the overall fight against anti-social behaviour.
"Seeing more police out on the streets is definitely the way forward and very much helps with community reassurance and I look forward to seeing regular repeat operations of this kind in the area."

President Aquino launched the 42.5-megawatt Sibulan Hydroelectric Power Plant in Sta. Cruz, Davao del Sur on Thursday (Sept. 16, 2010). Energy Secretary Jose Rene Almendras, Davao del Sur Governor Douglas Cagas, Sta. Cruz Mayor Joel Lopez and Aboitiz Power President and CEO Erramon Aboitiz assisted P-Noy during the ceremony. The power plant can provide more than 200 million kilowatt-hours annually of clean and renewable energy to Davao Light and Power Company (DLPC) in augmenting power demands to the provinces of Davao del Sur and Davao del Norte Photo by Jay Morales / Malacañang Photo Bureau
When building starfighters, I always wondered how they took off from land. So, I created the Starfighter Launch Pad, which is simply a little base for a starfighter to launch from. I used Power Functions to motorize the launcher, using an M-motor and a 1:125 gear ratio. When the motor is activated, the launcher can move up and down, and the two trans-blue lights in the front turn on. A starfighter can be placed upon a small 2x1 brick on the launcher to hold the fighter in place. The pad is also compatible with the Dragon Viperida I built yesterday.
You can see the launcher a bit better in the video.
