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.
The 2023 launch event and award ceremony are available to view on NASA's Marshall YouTube and Student Launch Facebook pages.

The Aesthetic Union
Letterpress Studio & Shop Launch Party Thursday, December 5th 2013 6 – 9pm 555 Alabama Street San Francisco, CA 94110 415 955-7485
risaculbertson@gmail.com
(San Francisco) Please join Local printmakers, James Tucker, of The Aesthetic Union, and Risa Culbertson of PapaLlama on Thursday, December 5th from 6-9pm to celebrate the opening of their new letterpress studio and shop, located at 555 Alabama Street in the San Francisco Heath Ceramics building.
The What
The Aesthetic Union is a collaborative which specializes in custom letterpress, serves as headquarters for the PapaLlama stationary line, gallery space featuring local print makers, and retail shop that celebrates the art of correspondence with handmade paper goods, vintage tools, and specialty writing products.
The Who Printmaker extraordinaire, James Tucker of the Aesthetic Union, pushes the boundaries of traditional printing methods to create specialty business cards and custom prints. James received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in printmaking at Maryland Institute College of Art. After graduation, James headed West to San Francisco where he interned and worked at a variety of letterpress, design, and bookbinding companies. He now has over 8 years of experience as a printmaker and graphic designer. Some of his employers include Hatch Show Print, Taurus Bookbindery, Austin Press, Dolphin Press, and Hello Lucky. With all of these experiences James has had a well-rounded education in the business of design and print.
PapaLlama creator Risa Culbertson, hand carves her designs using linoleum blocks, among other letterpress techniques to create untamed cards that are bold and cheeky. The line was started two years ago and can be seen in over 50 stores in the bay area. Risa received a Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration with an emphasis on Entrepreneurship from California State University of Fullerton. Risa has worked with many small businesses for the past 13 years during which time she has also assisted with event coordination for indie craft shows and freelance design work.
The Why James and Risa share a common vision of a local and sustainable collaborative space between their two businesses in which they share resources, learn, grow, and help others. The collaborators are not only excited about their new workspace in the beautiful Heath Ceramics building, but being a part of a community of like-minded crafts people who are passionate about preserving historic arts in a modern world.
The How In June of 2013 The Heath Ceramics family reached out to James and Risa about joining the community of makers within their beautiful 18th Street building in San Francisco. An old laundry facility dating back from 1924 was completely remodeled to specifically suit The Aesthetic Union’s needs while maintaining much of it’s original industrial aesthetics, including a pair of massive furnaces from a WWI ship. Heath Ceramics is an inspiration to James and Risa because it demonstrates that a thriving business is possible to have while practicing ethical business, creating beautiful, high quality works of art, all while staying local.

Had the opportunity tonight to photograph the launching of a fireworks show. Got to do this four years ago, loved the results, and have been hoping since to give it another try!
I need a camera where I can just hold the shutter down for minutes at a time and it can keep up with writing the files to card, though! Half the time I pressed the shutter tonight, nothing happened... because the camera was still too busy writing that last shot burst to the card!
We have just launched our sister site, modelab. Check it out and let us know what you think.
modeLab is the research entity of Studio Mode. It is conceived of as a laboratory and serves as a knowledge base for design research and experimentation. The laboratory is distributed in nature and operates across multiple time-scales and locations ranging from intensive workshops to design studios throughout North America and Europe.
Our primary objective is to discover novel and inventive design solutions through the identification of key concepts relevant to contemporary architectural discourse and the development of related maps of action.

Another shot of the small tortoiseshell butterfly. I didn't realise how much the butterflies love lavender until we planted some in a rockery this year. I started keeping the telephoto lens close by to try and catch them. Just a few of the shots I took came out clearly. This one reminded me of the launch pad on an aircraft carrier ... poised for take-off!

Democracy for Scotland: The Referendum Experience was launched at the Stirling Smith Art Gallery and Museum on 27th April, 2012.
The exhibition was formally opened by MSP Linda Fabiani and the launch was attended by many of the interviewees who contributed their recollections of the 1979 and 1997 devolution campaigns to the Devolution Referendums Oral History Collection at the Scottish Political Archive
Democracy for Scotland focuses on the campaign for a Scottish Parliament in the second half of the twentieth century. In particular it chronicles the history behind the two devolution referendums of 1979 and 1997 and explores the nature of the Yes and No campaigns for both referendums, their results and the re-establishment of a Scottish Parliament.
The exhibition draws largely on the collections of the Scottish Political Archive (SPA). SPA is based at the University of Stirling and is dedicated to collecting oral and other material relating to the political history of Scotland in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The exhibition features referendum campaign materials including leaflets, pamphlets, posters and badges deriving from all the major political parties and umbrella groups. It also offers visitors the opportunity to hear the voices of politicians and campaigners discussing their experiences of the referendums of ’79 and ‘97, the intervening period and the establishment of a Scottish Parliament.

The United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket carrying NASA's Origins, Spectral Interpretation, Resource Identification, Security-Regolith Explorer (OSIRIS-REx) spacecraft lifts off on from Space Launch Complex 41 on Friday, Sept. 9, 2016 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. OSIRIS-REx will be the first U.S. mission to sample an asteroid, retrieve at least two ounces of surface material and return it to Earth for study. The asteroid, Bennu, may hold clues to the origin of the solar system and the source of water and organic molecules found on Earth. Photo Credit: (NASA/Joel Kowsky)
