Launch Complex 14 is most well known as the launch site for NASA's Mercury-Atlas 6 flight, which made John H. Glenn the first American in orbit. It was also the launch site of the other Mercury-Atlas flights and various unmanned Atlas launches. Later, it was the site for Atlas-Agena launches, with the Gemini Agena Target Vehicle (GATV), for Project Gemini.
Following decommissioning and abandonment as active launch site, Launch Complex 14 slowly fell into decay. Although a stop on the pre-11 September 2001 public bus tours of Cape Canaveral, the proximity of the site to the Atlantic Ocean created an ideal environment for the corrosion of metal components and the complex's red metal gantry structures were dismantled for safety purposes in the 1970s.

Morecambe Lifeboat launch their Hovercraft.In well over forty years this is the first time I have seen a launch.A case of being in the right place at the right time.
Before the Hovercraft there was just an RNLI inshore rescue boat.
Though for many years before the local fishermen had their own ie;not (RNLI boat) lifeboat. which if I remember was a converted fishing boat.

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.

install and launch day / night
Amazing turnout over 300 people - positive vibe throughout the project and during the night.
I love Route 66. It might not be THAT famous or THAT much recognized as one of the symbols of USA in USA as it is here in Europe, it might be mostly nonexistent (at least in it's filmed [movies] form) but it has made it's way to my heart.
One of the best known places on Route 66 (at least within it's Illinois part) is The Launching Pad restaurant along with it's Gemini Giant. Well, unfortunately the restaurant is closed now but Giant is still standing.
If you ever decide to go for Route 66 then if you start from Chicago then make a stop in Route 66 museum in Joplin, talk to very nice lady that works there and buy yourself set of maps and a route 66 book (well, a road book) by Jerry McClanahan and Jim Ross and stay out of interstates, business loops etc and follow one of the old variants of Route 66. Go slow and get as much as you can from the drive.

Cover shot story…
Patrick Seabase
"Mountains are different"
we set off very early at 4am, grabbing a free breakfast on the way at a mountain hotel… (just say your'e staying in room 11 and it normally works)
We were looking through photographs making the selection for Fixed 08, when we found a random shot of a supply road leading to the top of the mountain island, by the dam. Patrick had not attempted this descent before, as it is off the main road and normally he rides the 30km straight down without stopping. The surface of the supply road was super sketchy, pitted with pot holes, uneven cobble stones and crumpled tarmac making it almost impossible for him to control skidding… it was good fun and we hope you will like the end result.
