The Closer is a semi automatic, magazine loaded grenade launcher.
Due to it's compact but aerodynamic shape, the H.A. Engineers simply copied the asthetic design of the russian AP-I grenade, and have added a self contained propellant/primer.
Internally, the grenade hardly resembles an AP-I, as it has a fragmentation sleeve instead of armor piercing components.
The barrel of the closer is made of a series of polymer composites, intended to reduce noise and visible exit gasses.

The United Launch Alliance Delta IV Heavy rocket, with NASA’s Orion spacecraft mounted atop, lifts off from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station's Space Launch Complex 37 at at 7:05 a.m. EST, Friday, Dec. 5, 2014, in Florida. The Orion spacecraft will orbit Earth twice, reaching an altitude of approximately 3,600 miles above Earth before landing in the Pacific Ocean. No one is aboard Orion for this flight test, but the spacecraft is designed to allow us to journey to destinations never before visited by humans, including an asteroid and Mars.

Young people and children in the Highlands can learn how to stay safe going to and from school thanks to a new project “Stranger Smart” launched (20 May 2015) by Police Scotland and The Highland Council in Inverness.
The overarching aim of the new initiative which was revealed at the Council’s Education, Children and Adult Services Committee is to ensure that children, young people, parents, carers, teachers and Police are all working together to ensure that children know how to stay safe if approached by strangers.
The Council and Police Scotland have worked with schools, parents and the Safe Strong and Free organisation to produce Stranger Smart information and guidance.
The Stranger Smart project has produced a simple short leaflet that outlines how to keep children and young people safe and how they can be ‘Stranger Smart’. The leaflet gives advice to parents and carers and their children on what they should do if approached by a stranger on the way to and from school or while they are ‘out and about’. The leaflet will be sent home with pupils over the coming weeks, following class discussions, and parents and carers of all primary-aged school children are encouraged to talk through the leaflet with their child.
Guidance and a joint protocol between The Highland Council and Police Scotland has been produced for Head Teachers to advise them on what to do if they are informed by a pupil or parent/carer that they (or their child) has been approached by a stranger. Schools have also been provided with simple messages for pupils to help teachers explain in assemblies or classes to pupils how they can be Stranger Smart.
The leaflet for parents was designed in consultation with Crown Primary school Parent Council and ‘Safe Strong and Free’. Head Teacher, Elspeth Mackenzie also advised on the Stranger Smart project group.
The Stranger Smart leaflet for parent/carers, children and young people along with the “Joint protocol Guidance for Head Teachers on Suspicious persons / pupil approached by stranger” can be found on the council’s website at: www.highland.gov.uk/strangersmart

Space Shuttle Discovery's metal connector to the external propellant tank loses some paint (and metal?) during it's last launch into space.
IN SLOW MO.
It happened ~1ish minutes before separation.
Thought it was a tile while I was watching it live, but after I slowed it down, you can see the chip break away from the metal connector.
