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's InSight lander just hitched a ride to Mars on an Atlas V rocket! ETA: November 26, 2018. This was the first interplanetary mission to leave from California and it was a joy to watch it go! This is a long-exposure shot of the rocket streaking through the sky seen from about 85 miles away from the launch site at Vandeberg AFB. #NASA #InSight #Mars #ULA #AtlasV

From summer 2013 at the cabin. A 30 second exposure from the marina by our cabin. It's starting to be spring here, time to start thinking about summer at the cabin.
Posted as day 5 of a combined 10 day B&W challenge from Cindy's Here and kfpsardou. One thing I like about this miniproject is that I'm going through some older photos doing a little past processing. I had taken a series of long exposures at the marina that I never did process. A nice little rediscovery in my archives. I'm trying to post something a little different every day, and this day is a long exposure landscape.

St. Michael's Catholic Cemetery in Launching, Prince Edward Island, Canada. The cemetery was established in 1820, and abandoned in 1860. Many of the headstones are just simple plain rocks.
See the pilot shots where they step/jump off and on the ship in order to take command through the ship channels, thought you'd like to see how the loser to the dock at Roatan disembarks passengers for touring the island. Notice, they're launching their lifeboats.
Sort of cool to see them actually do this when it's not an emergency. Hope to never see it in an emergency.

This was made so I'd have a clear picture to use as thumbnail and so on. The pictures taken outdoors were a bit cluttered.

Morning launch of a Falcon 9 rocket. The view is somewhat in to the sun in the morning, so the flame is not nearly as distinct as it is for afternoon launches. Still pretty cool... if you know what it is you're seeing!

Tinsel TV characters with some of the city centre policing team.
Greater Manchester Police has launched its Christmas campaign today as part of ‘GMP Christmas’, tackling crime and protecting vulnerable people over the festive period.
This year’s online Advent campaign sees a festive cast take over usual TV programming with the launch of Tinsel TV. A new video will be released every day from 1 December, which sees Rudolph, Snowman and a Big Bad Wolf join Santa and his helpers as they host a series of TV programmes with crime prevention advice for the residents of Greater Manchester.
GMP is encouraging people to think about how they might keep themselves safe, and to consider what their present to, or presence within, their community, family or friendships might be.
At the same time, the campaign will showcase the promises that GMP makes to the public at Christmas and all year round, using a mixture of law enforcement and public engagement to protect the local communities.
Operationally, high-visibility patrols will be in place across the region to detect and deter criminal activity, as well as providing reassurance and assistance. There will also be 12 high-profile days of action which will tackle the traditional spike in crime usually seen during this time of year.
Purse bells and other crime prevention tools will be handed out to shoppers in town centres to keep thieves at bay, and police are also maintaining a strong presence around car parks to help prevent items being stolen from vehicles.
The Christmas drink and drug drive operation, which also starts today (1 December 2015), will continue throughout the month and officers will be testing motorists around the clock and reinforcing the ‘none for the road’ message.
In addition, officers and cadets will be delivering hampers to the elderly and those in need, and the public will be given a live insight into the world of policing on one of the busiest days of the year – Mad Friday.
Assistant Chief Constable John O’Hare said:
“This time of year is a busy one for the force and our colleagues across the emergency services, and we have been thoroughly preparing for the festive period.
“Our top priority is making sure that the people of Greater Manchester enjoy Christmas in the safest possible manner.
“It can be a very busy time of year, but we are asking the public to take some time to have a think about what their Christmas present might be to their community or family. Whether you promise to visit an elderly relative or neighbour, or volunteer to be the designated driver for friends on a night out, we can all do our part to keep ourselves and others safe this season.
“This Christmas, GMP will be present to tackle criminals and protect the people of Greater Manchester. We hope our neighbourhoods can embrace the spirit of community this Christmas and share their presence, too.”
Greater Manchester Mayor and Police and Crime Commissioner Tony Lloyd said:
“Christmas brings out the best in Greater Manchester people – the majority of whom are generous and warm-hearted. I hope people will tap into that festive community spirit and look out for older friends and neighbours who perhaps need a little help and company this year.
“There will always be those who want to spoil the party for everyone, so please take care of yourself and your friends when you’re out enjoying yourselves, and make sure everyone gets home safe and sound.”
People can post their Christmas promises online using one of the GMP templates, available at www.gmp.police.uk.
People can also visit the website to check out the daily videos giving seasonal crime prevention advice, or follow #GMPChristmas on social media for the latest police activity throughout December.
