Orbiter Atlantis lifted off from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida at 11:29 a.m. EDT, July 8, 2011, to begin the STS-135 mission. This was the final launch in the Space Shuttle Program.

 

Though the launch is finished, work is just beginning for staff at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center more than 800 miles away from the launch pad, just outside Washington, D.C., in Greenbelt, Md.

 

Goddard employees will work around-the-clock to guarantee the four astronauts aboard Atlantis have constant, uninterrupted lines of communication with Mission Control. The careful dance of satellite relays necessary to keep channels open requires global coordination, but it all comes together in Goddard’s Network Integration Center. Goddard has fulfilled this communication role in literally all of NASA’s manned space flights: We all know the words, “One small step for (a) man; one giant leap for mankind,” but no one on Earth would have heard Neil Armstrong say them on July 21, 1969, if not for Goddard.

 

The space shuttle has been vital in humanity’s ability to reach beyond Earth’s horizon. The 135 orbiter flights have not merely taken humans to space: They have carried satellites, telescopes, science experiments and more. Among Atlantis’s final contributions is the Robotic Refueling Mission, developed at Goddard. Atlantis will bring this module to the International Space Station, where it will provide key support in maintaining future spacecrafts for years to come. STS-135 astronauts traveled to Goddard to complete special training for these robotics, a major component of the final shuttle mission. RRM is one of dozens of Goddard payloads to travel aboard orbiters into space throughout the 30-year flight history of the Shuttle Program.

 

NASA Goddard Space Flight Center enables NASA’s mission through four scientific endeavors: Earth Science, Heliophysics, Solar System Exploration, and Astrophysics. Goddard plays a leading role in NASA’s accomplishments by contributing compelling scientific knowledge to advance the Agency’s mission.

Watching Space shuttle launches is not really my thing but when my friend Paul Aughey set the trip up, how could I pass on going to Florida. The day before the launch, they predicted a 30% chance of a successful launch because of a tropical weather system passing through the area. Paul found a viewing access about seven miles to the north in Mosquito Lagoon (appropriately named I might add). Hundreds if not thousands of fellow kayakers and canoers lined the channel under the watchful eye of the U.S. Coast Guard. I have to admit I got kinda teary-eyed when the thing took off. I think the coolest thing was about 90 seconds after it took off this incredible thunderous roar reached us. It sounded and vibrated like heavy thunder but it lasted for minutes. It was amazing. Too bad my longest lens was on a 300 mm.

The Supra Launch 21v is known for producing big air under even novice riders. The walls of wakes this Supra produces give beginning to intermediate shredders the momentum they need to get up and over aerial moves. Thanks to the customizable rider profiles housed in Supra’s VISION dash, wake riding sets can be tailored to individual skills with extreme precision. Wake shape, size and boat speed can all be programed to preference. The Launch 21V offers all of this wake performance without forgetting about what’s on the inside. Deep supportive seating frames a boat load of storage to accommodate as many as 14 and their gear on the lake. A huge insulated ice chest complimented by oversized cup holders adds to the 21V’s accommodation. Take into account the new standard Clarion-Polk Audio Sound System, customizable seating like the extended observer’s leanback and the choice of bow configurations with the walkthrough Sunsport and playpen Launch series models. The 21V is not just about accommodation but a truly individual experience.

Launch of a Delta IV rocket from SLC-37 in Cape Canaveral, carrying the WGS-6 satellite for the Air Force (mission overview). The photos were taking from about 9 miles away.

 

We weren't able to find a radio station broadcasting the countdown, so we had no idea when exactly it was launching. Turns out it launched right at the start of the launch window. We had just parked, and managed to only miss the very beginning of it.

On November 12, 2012, we launched Change into the world. This lovely milestone was celebrated by dismantling Dan's facial hair.

More than 800 students from across the U.S. and Puerto Rico launched nearly 50 high-powered, amateur rockets April 15, near NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, during the Agency's annual rocket competition.

 

For the past nine months prior, teams of middle school, high school, college, and university students were tasked to design, build, and launch a rocket and scientific payload to an altitude between 4,000 and 6,000 feet, while making a successful landing and executing a scientific or engineering payload mission.

 

Student Launch is one of NASA's eight Artemis Student Challenges - a series of activities providing students access to the Artemis program. Through Artemis, NASA will return humans to the Moon for long-term exploration, including landing the first woman and first person of color on the lunar surface, missions that will help pave the way for future missions to Mars.

Love this perspective... about to launch into flight... poised on the precipice of the lantana blossom.

A United Launch Alliance Delta II rockets lifts off on it's 153rd mission since being introduced in 1989, from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. The workhorse lifted NASA's Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) Satellite into orbit to study the Earth's soil moisture every 2-3 days over the next three years.

This 22.5-foot wake boat welcomes as many as 13 with versatile seating, comfort and wake sport performance. The Launch 22V interior brings resilient multi-textured Syntec NANO Block vinyls together with the durability of exclusive Gore Tenara thread. Triple density foam construction makes the interior as cushy as it is beautiful. Supra has made the high-traffic path from the lounge to the swim step worry-free with a fiberglass seat step and transom walkacross. The wakes are multi-discipline and pro caliber. Control your curl and your ramps with cockpit switching or a Touch of the VISION. As fun to drive as it is to ride, the 22V slices through rough water with flat precise turns. High and slow speed maneuvers are almost as impressive as you will look pulling them off. Playpen or walk-through bow, the Launch and Sunsport 22V will fit your wake boating lifestyle.

Citizens United and Congressman Jeff Duncan are teaming up to bring grassroots activists from across South Carolina and the surrounding area to hear directly from national conservative leaders at the South Carolina Freedom Summit on Saturday, May 9, 2015. With the critically important South Carolina Primary less than a year away, the Summit will be a launch point for conservative ideas as we head towards 2016.

 

The Freedom Summit will focus on how we can get America back on track by focusing on our core conservative principles of pro-growth economics, social conservatism, and a strong national defense. This must-attend Summit in the Palmetto State is free to the public and will be held at the beautiful Peace Center in Greenville.

 

Stay tuned for further updates as we announce more nationally recognized speakers in the weeks ahead. Since the Summit is free, we encourage you to sign up early because we have a limited number of seats. Please tell your family and friends about this important grassroots event. We look forward to seeing you on Saturday, May 9th in Greenville for the South Carolina Freedom Summit!

 

Piyush "Bobby" Jindal (born June 10, 1971) is an American politician who is the 55th and current Governor of Louisiana and the Vice Chairman of the Republican Governors Association.

 

Jindal was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, to immigrants from India. Prior to entering politics, Jindal studied for a Bachelor of Science in biology and public policy at Brown University from 1988 to 1991 and then a Master of Letters in political science from New College, Oxford, as a Rhodes Scholar. He worked for McKinsey & Company and interned for Representative Jim McCrery of Louisiana. In 1996, Governor Murphy Foster appointed Jindal Secretary of the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals, and in 1999 he was appointed President of the University of Louisiana System. In 2001, Jindal was appointed as the principal adviser to Tommy Thompson, the United States Secretary of Health and Human Services by President George W. Bush.

 

He first ran for governor in 2003 and won a plurality in the nonpartisan blanket primary but lost in the general election to Democrat Kathleen Blanco. He then won a seat in the United States House of Representatives in the 2004 elections. The second Indian American in Congress, he was re-elected in 2006. He ran for Governor again in 2007 and secured an outright majority in the first round of balloting; in doing so, he became the first Indian American governor in the United States. He was re-elected in a landslide in 2011.

A Cheetah D of the South African Air Force is almost obscured by a trail of smoke from the air-to-air missile it has just launched.

 

This launch took place at AFB Overberg on 10 November 2007 and was the first time, anywhere in the world, that a live air-to-air missile was fired at a public airshow.

On Thursday afternoon, I walked into Lodhi Colony’s posh and sought after Japanese restaurant Guppy. I looked around intrigued, I had really expected it to be a more formal setting. But Guppy’s fun Asian vibe with a homely decor had me the moment I walked through the restaurant.

 

IMG_20150409_155405

 

Not being a major fan of seafood, I was slightly apprehensive about eating authentic Japanese food.

 

IMG_20150409_151409

 

The chef probably wanted to ease us in so the first thing we tried was a smoked pumpkin soup with sakura wood and crispy pumpkin seeds. The smoked flavor overpowered the typical pumpkin taste, which worked well. There were also some leaves thrown in to add to the flavor and give some green to the ochre soup.

 

IMG_20150409_143318

 

Next we sampled a cold smoked Kampachi, a type of fish that was served on a bed of some salad, again, the dish was smoked to perfection. Because of how close it was to the taste and texture, all of us at the table assumed it was salmon. The chef later told us what it was!

 

IMG_20150409_142511

 

We tried another type of Kampachi, right after this one.

 

IMG_20150409_142632

 

Next, our server, smile on his face, walked up to our table with two trays of sushi. Before he had put the tray down at our table, I decided I would pass on the sushi. But within seconds, I was talked into eating it. I was told I couldn’t go to Guppy and not have their sushi. I was afraid but I picked up my chopsticks and bit into the sushi, it had almost all the basics from the sushi bar, a couple of types of fish including salmon, vegetables, rice and of course the skin. I can proudly say, I enjoyed it. Sushi and I are now friends.

 

IMG_20150409_141826

 

After this, we tried a vegetarian starter; tofu and water chestnut in what seamed to be a slightly tomatoey creamy base, it was close to an Indian curry flavor but the water chestnut of course, made all the difference. Within moments, we had gobbled it up and two large helpings of Eel arrived at our table. It had some basic spices and also some eggplant; it was cooked in a semi gravy.

 

IMG_20150409_141456

 

The flavor of the eggplant, went surprisingly well with the Eel, which I had not anticipated. Along with the Eel, we tried something called Parch man fish, which was close to a grilled fish served with some spices and lemon. This was my favourite.

 

IMG_20150409_142732

 

The chef was concerned we had had a seafood overdose, so he told us he would bring us a ‘comfort dish’. While I waited for this dish, that I was very intrigued by, I ordered myself a ‘summer hoedown’ which was a beer cocktail with a punch flavour and mint leaves. I enjoyed it thoroughly. Unlike other places, the alcohol content in the cocktail was more than sufficient! I was quite pleased!

 

IMG_20150409_143705

 

A couple of minutes later, our comfort food arrived, A semi friend chicken curry dish with steamed rice. This felt like home! The flavours were absolutely perfect and I was more than glad to get a break from all the different types of fish.

 

IMG_20150409_144817

 

To add to this, we also sampled two different types of cold ramen, one being Udon and the other Soba. This was probably my least favourite dish from the selection but others seemed to enjoy it!

 

IMG_20150409_152558

 

I didn’t stay for dessert, but I hear it was good! I’d give my Guppy experience a 4 on 5. They will definitely be seeing a lot of me!

 

XOXO

It's hard to get a shot of a small rocket taking off. One moment there's a rocket sitting there, and the next just a puff of smoke. This is the only shot I got of the darn thing leaving the launch pad, so let's just ignore the crooked horizon.

Whether you're looking for a luxury ride to dinner or a pro-level wake appetizer, the 2013 Launch 242 can take you there. Deep comforting seats for 15 draped in plush durable Syntec NBT vinyl line the inside. Beneath the lounge, large LED-lit storage areas have room for everything including refreshment. The new stay-cold 48-can Supra Boats branded soft-sided AO Cooler can be filled in the house and stored anywhere in the boat. Stainless steel cup holders accept drinks through out. When the ride is behind the 242 the 345 Surf engine from Indmar cranks out 370 lb-ft of torque, Flex ballast swells to 2200 pounds, the SmartPlate refines shape and the wakes Launch. Control the performance with the new VISION Touch dash and save these settings in as many as 16 unique rider profiles. The Supra Launch 242 is the ride of your life no matter where you're headed.
