Launch of the LADEE spacecraft headed to the moon.
Taken from Washington Rock in Green Brook, NJ.
Quick dirty edit.
Yesterday I went with my mother-in-law (who is an member of the WREN Association) to the launch of the sixth and latest Type 45 Destroyer purchased by the Navy HMS Duncan. Despite being born and brought up in Govan I don't think I had ever been to a ship launch, and as this may be last, it was great to go along and see. We were actually too close to get a good ship shot and the light and shadow made it difficult to get a balanced shot of crowd and ship. However, I did get some pics to remember the day by. There must have been abut 10,000 people in the shipyard.

A new pilot scheme, launched this week, will significantly boost the ability to tackle and prevent crime and antisocial behaviour on Greater Manchester’s bus and tram network.
Under the Travelsafe Partnership, a dedicated team of 16 police constables, police community support officers, special constables and security personnel will provide regular patrols on the region’s networks for the next three years.
Led by Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) and Greater Manchester Police (GMP), the scheme will use crime and antisocial behaviour data from contributing operators – Metrolink, First Bus and Stagecoach – to target patrols in hotspot areas at key times and support front line staff.
The establishment of a dedicated team will provide expertise and knowledge that will also assist in the identification of repeat offenders, while the provision of body-worn cameras in conjunction with existing public transport CCTV will help gather evidence for prosecutions.
Where appropriate, the partnership will seek to use legal powers to ban offenders from public transport and deliver restorative justice schemes following prosecution.
The pilot will also focus on preventative measures and youth education, with uniformed officers visiting schools to educate youngsters on the dangers, impacts and consequences of crime, antisocial behaviour and fare evasion on public transport.
The pilot will initially run for three years but will be subject to formal annual reviews and regular scrutiny by a strategy group made up of members from organisations involved.

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)

NASA’s Psyche spacecraft will travel to a metal-rich asteroid by the same name orbiting the Sun between Mars and Jupiter to study it’s composition. The spacecraft also carries the agency's Deep Space Optical Communications technology demonstration, which will test laser communications beyond the Moon. Photo Credit: (NASA/Aubrey Gemignani)
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.

The Lockheed Martin F-16 Fighting Falcon is a multirole jet fighter aircraft originally developed by General Dynamics for the United States Air Force. Although the F-16's official name is "Fighting Falcon", it is known to its pilots as the "Viper", due to it resembling a viper snake and after the Battlestar Galactica starfighter.
Designed as a lightweight, daytime fighter, it evolved into a successful multirole aircraft. The F-16's versatility is a major reason it has proven a success on the export market, having been selected to serve in the air forces of 25 nations. Over 4,400 aircraft have been built since production was approved in 1976. Though no longer being purchased by the U.S. Air Force, advanced versions are still being built for export customers. In 1993, General Dynamics sold its aircraft manufacturing business to the Lockheed Corporation, which in turn became part of Lockheed Martin after a 1995 merger with Martin Marietta.

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.
