This rocket was launched from Ny Ålesund, Svalbard in early December to study the upper atmosphere. I was present as part of the team and took the opportunity to try a rocket launch shot on large format film. This was done on my Tachihara with Fuji Provia 100F film. The exposure was started about two hours before launch at f/8 to expose the sky, star trails, and distant landscape. About 30 seconds before launch I stopped the lens down to f/16 to expose the foreground lit by the rocket like a giant flash. I'm fairly proud of getting this on large format film since there's no way to meter or do any kind of test exposure.
Camera: Tachihara 4x5 field
Lens: Caltar-S 135mm f/5.6
Film: Fuji Provia 100F
A huge bulk freighter departs from the the Red Port. Its cargo is tonnes of Red Leicester. These massive blocks will be honed by skilled artisans into the correct shape and then included in @lego sets. Remember this the next time you find an extra 54200 1x1 slope in your bag of pieces!

Launching a few weeks behind its twin Viking 1, Viking 2 followed suit and flew as an orbiter-lander pair to enter Mars orbit. The landers then separated from the orbiters and descended to the planet's surface.

A United Launch Alliance Delta II rocket with the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) observatory onboard launches from Space Launch Complex 2, Saturday, Jan. 31, 2015, Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif. SMAP is NASA’s first Earth-observing satellite designed to collect global observations of surface soil moisture and its freeze/thaw state. SMAP will provide high resolution global measurements of soil moisture from space. The data will be used to enhance scientists' understanding of the processes that link Earth's water, energy, and carbon cycles. Photo Credit: (NASA/Bill Ingalls)

ABOUT WORLD VIEW
World View® is pioneering a new frontier at the edge of space and leading the way in the emerging stratospheric economy.
As an active, full-service commercial launch provider, World View’s technology is already opening up new realms of possibility for commercial customers around the world.
World View’s disruptive Stratollite flight platform enables previously unthinkable applications at a fraction of the cost of existing technology. Stratollites serve a variety of mission functions – from short duration research flights to long-duration flights over specific areas of interest – and serve a broad range of critical commercial needs and applications.
In the near future, World View will leverage the development of its Stratollite technology to pioneer a different type of discovery – private space exploration. In due time, World View will offer an affordable, safe, and gentle way for humans to access near-space for an experience unlike any other.
World View is led by experts in high-altitude ballooning, veterans of human spaceflight, and a team of retired NASA Astronauts, with a flight platform that is rooted deeply in technologies that have been successfully and safely used for decades.
A ULA Atlas V rises above a cluster of spectating boats in the Banana River during yesterday's launch. The rocket was carrying the AEHF-6 satellite into orbit, which is a military communication satellite that serves under several nations. While this was the final AEHF mission, it was also the first for the newly-formed United States Space Force.
The launch of Melbourne Rare Book Week. www.rarebookweek.com/.
This year sees the seventh Melbourne Rare Book Week (MRBW) and the 46th Australian Antiquarian Book Fair, presented by the Australian Association of Antiquarian Booksellers (ANZAAB) and Rare Books Melbourne (RBM).
This year's program is presented by both regular and new MRBW partners. It includes a wide variety of interesting topics on book-related themes, and entry to all events is free of charge. There is something for all interests and taste. So, once again we welcome bibliophiles, established collectors and those new to book collecting.
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.

NASA has announced the winners of the 2016 NASA Student Launch challenge, held April 13-16 near NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama.
Vanderbilt University of Nashville, Tennessee, won first place and took home the top prize of $5,000, offered by Orbital ATK, of Promontory, Utah, longtime corporate sponsor of the challenge.
The University of Louisville, in Kentucky, won second place, and Cornell University of Ithaca, New York, placed third. The Rookie of the Year award was presented to the University of Cincinnati in Ohio.
Nearly 50 middle and high school, college and university teams from 22 states demonstrated advanced aerospace and engineering skills related to real-world activities and programs on NASA’s journey to Mars. Teams spent eight months building and testing rockets designed to fly to an altitude of one mile, deploy an automated parachute system, and land safe enough for reuse, while some teams also designed scientific payloads for data collection during flight.

A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launches with the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) spacecraft onboard, Friday, Dec. 16, 2022, from Space Launch Complex 4E at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. Jointly developed by NASA and Centre National D'Etudes Spatiales (CNES), with contributions from the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) and United Kingdom Space Agency, SWOT is the first satellite mission that will observe nearly all water on Earth’s surface, measuring the height of water in the planet’s lakes, rivers, reservoirs, and the ocean.

An otter ready to grab his lunch. Taken, once again, at the Tamar Otter and Wildlife Centre in Cornwall. This little fellow was just getting fed his lunch from the keeper who was telling the assembled crowd all about this type of otter. Needless to say, I cant remember what type he was...
Anyway, he held this pose for about 10 seconds, which gave me plenty of time to get the composition right (IMHO) and dial in some exposure compensation (damn that bright sunlight on a summers day!)

Hundreds of birds scatter as the typical quiet reverie of their day is temporarily broken by the roar of a Space Shuttle surging off the pad. The orbiter Atlantis returned to space after an approximately two-year absence with a liftoff from Launch Pad 39B at 11:59:43 a.m. EST. The planned 11-day flight of Space Shuttle Mission STS-66 will continue NASA's Mission to Planet Earth, a comprehensive international collaboration to study how Earth's environment is changing and how human beings affect that change. Primary payloads for the last Shuttle flight of 1994 include the Atmospheric Laboratory for Applications and Science (ATLAS-3), making its third flight, and the German-built Cryogenic Infrared Spectrometers and Telescopes for the Atmosphere-Shuttle Pallet Satellite (CRISTA-SPAS), which will be deployed and later retrieved during the mission. Mission commander is Donald R. McMonagle; Curtis L. Brown Jr. is the pilot; Ellen Ochoa is the payload commander, and the three mission specialists are Joseph R. Tanner, Scott E. Parazynski, and Jean-Francois Clervoy, a French citizen who is with the European Space Agency.

Night launch of SpaceX's CRS 4 mission to international space station (ISS) carried by a Falcon 9 rocket.
ESA’s new small telecom platform was launched on 28 January 2017. The Hispasat 36W-1 satellite, based on the SmallGEO platform, lifted off on a Soyuz rocket from Europe’s Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana.
SmallGEO is Europe’s response to the market demand for more flexible, modular telecommunications platforms. It marks the first time the German satellite manufacturing company OHB System AG have been the prime contractor for a telecommunications satellite mission. Its Hispasat payload marks the first ESA partnership with a Spanish operator.
