Inside the Neil Armstrong Operations and Checkout Building high bay at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, in preparation for installation on the Artemis I spacecraft, technicians have extended one of the Artemis I solar array wings for inspection on Sept. 10, 2020, to confirm that it unfurled properly and all of the mechanisms functioned as expected. The solar array is one of four panels that will generate 11 kilowatts of power and span about 63 feet. The array is a component of Orion’s service module, which is provided by the European Space Agency and built by Airbus Defence and Space to supply Orion’s power, propulsion, air and water. The first in a series of increasingly complex missions, Artemis I will test the Orion spacecraft and Space Launch System as an integrated system ahead of crewed flights to the Moon. Under the Artemis program, NASA will land the first woman and the next man on the Moon in 2024.
Here's all my 100% new micropolis modules for this round. I think I can officially add trans-black tiles to my list of parts I'll never have too much of.
Have no idea if it works yet, but proud to have completed my first kit nonetheless., First kit-built Eurorack module: a Synthrotek ADSR. Have no idea whether it works yet
Nick Bluetooth races onto the scene with his TDNX-Module Podracer! He's been tasked with defending the Outer Rim, rather than the entire dimension. For racing purposes, he's turned off the podracer's ability to navigate through dimensions. In addition to this, and not unlike the TDN Module, the vehicle is sentient. Nick usually refers to it by its nickname, the "Eggracer".
I found this module at Ikea. It was usually used for an entrance, but I integrated it in my closet. The shelves can be repositioned at any height. I also bought those handles at Ikea, because the original ones where black material-like and cheap looking. The new ones are way nicer! I found the shoe boxes at Home-Depot and used them not only for shoes, but for scarves, slippers, etc.
Nakagin Capsule Tower
(address : 8-16-10 Ginza Chuuo-ku Tokyo)
This is world's first Capsule Structure built in 1972. It is said that this is a prototype of "Capsule Hotel" in Japan.
"Capsule Hotel" is the Japan original accommodations. The first "Capsule Hotel" started business in Osaka in 1979. It is the tight accommodations to provide a simple bed to, but can stay at low fare.
There is "Capsule Hotel" in most cities of Japan now, but I don't have stay experience. Because it is tight space... :)
BTW, "Capsule Tower" and "Capsule Hotel" are "Mr. Kisho Kurokawa" of the same designer.

Haha, it's a pathetic sum of parts but one of the 20 essential modules to form the Island nonetheless.
The control modules, left for the ride control and right for the car alarm.
The car alarm module ist not original, those with a blue label and ZT letters were used in the vectra A, Calibra and Astra F.
The module for the Senator has a yellow label and XE letters.
Paper: 7.5 cm DC
Modules: 6 face modules
Model: Tomoko Fuse
Book: Unit Origami Essence p. 60-61
I love this Tomoko Fuse book but tessellations and other folds have pushed my folding of polyhedra in the background. Among some sheets of DC paper which a colleague gave me (I think they came with the new book Origami Garten by Ioana Stoian), where these stripy psychodelic one, which seemed a perfect match for a stripy cube.
NASA astronaut Kayla Barron reopens the door to ESA's Columbus module, after two days and nights of the Space Station's side modules being closed as a precautionary measure against space debris.
Matthias posted this image to social media on 18 November 2021 with the caption: NASA Astronaut Kayla Barron reopening the hatch of ESA's science laboratory Columbus after 2️⃣ days and nights of the side modules being closed as a precaution against space debris. This also marked the end of our slumber party in Node 2, as I go back to sleeping in my CASA crew quarters in Columbus In the second picture, you can see the four crew quarters of my NASA Astronauts colleagues in the foreground, with my temporary diagonal "bed" at the back. Orientation doesn't matter in space – I slept beautifully 👌

The City Space theme continues to inspire. I wanted to use the curved quarter panels as a windscreen, and by excellent luck had the matching curve plate in sand blue. From then on it was just a matter of mixing the design cues and colour scheme from the sets with my build.
Rather pleased with this, looks chunky and industrial near-future. The crane, while functional, can't lift the module without ripping itself apart. Oh well.
Probably won't take any more pictures of the module itself either, it's just an empty shell that seems to be more like a double-decker carriage on a scenic train than a science module. Some more work on that will be required, I think. But that's a problem for another time. I already have an idea for a larger build that will incorporate four of these modules.
The Lunar Module (LM) was the lander portion of the Apollo spacecraft. The LM was designed to transport two astronauts from the Command/Service Module (CSM) in lunar orbit to the moon’s surface and back.
When I started this project, there were a few design and construction decisions to consider. My main goal was to have the LM as close to minifig scale as possible and to have the structure as functional as possible. Therefore, a few elements could have been smaller (for example, the landing legs), but I chose to create an articulating version instead.

'It is the pervading law of all things organic and inorganic, of all things physical and metaphysical, of all things human and all things superhuman, of all true manifestations of the head, of the heart, of the soul, that the life is recognizable in its expression, that form ever follows function. This is the law.'

This illustration shows the current version (v.5) of the track plan/module configuration for my Fareham layout project. This may change as I continue to build the layout; however, I have more or less used it to build the first 4x modules. The modular tables I am using are shown as alternating pink/blue rectangles and are nominally 45"x30" (3x2 48-stud baseplates). The rear section of the layout (at the top of the drawing) is a planned yard/storage area. I may change this section in order to accommodate more stock and to include "offsite" junction connections to modular club layouts. I will focus any changes on eliminating track sections which cross table boundaries. I want to ensure track sections are aligned with table boundaries so that they can be semi-permanently mounted to the table for better reliability.
The layout essentially consists of two main running lines each with independent control. Either line can be assigned to DCC operation or to one of 2x 9V DC "cabs". There is a C-Bus control network which runs around the layout to control the switches and the signals. Some of the boards also have independent switches for the lighting, e.g. street or platform lamps.
The diagrams show the folding of the Basic Compass Rose Module. This is just another variation of the Wind Rose Module. Do not use this module together with the Wind Rose Modules. I have not tried that but there is no harm trying. However, I cannot guarantee good results.
The assembly is similar to the "Snowflake Modules" posted earlier here - www.flickr.com/photos/61236172@N08/8487800798/in/set-7215... . Please refer to it if you are not familiar with the assembly. Leave a little gap between the edges of the cupboard fold [step 1] for easier assembling of the modules.

Akiyuki's Step Module GBC
Lego Technic
Designed by Akiyuki
Instructions by Jesuskyr and Blakbird
Master built by OneMoreRobot 2016
My take on set 10029 the Apollo Lunar lander. I used what parts I could find (and afford) on Bricklink and tried to make use of alternate pieces for what I could not.
After struggling with sub-standard tables at public shows resulting in warped baseplates, wavy track alignment, etc.; I decided I should build my own table modules. The design objectives were as follows:
1) self-contained table module with legs, wiring, etc. built-in
2) dimensionally aligned to integer multiples of 16-studs
3) mutually aligned with dowels and/or bolts in both end-end or end-side configurations
4) support optional drop-in modules between self-standing modules
The design you see here is the result. I have built 4x of these modules for my latest Lego model railway and I am quite satisfied with the result. They have proven to be very robust and provide a flat consistent surface for the baseplates. The disadvantage of this design is its weight. Its a compromise I was willing to accept in exchange for robustness. These modules have to survive the rigours of transport to/from public shows as well as within my own house!

Orion is NASA’s next spacecraft to send humans into space. It is designed to send astronauts further into space than ever before, beyond the Moon to asteroids and even Mars. When they return to Earth, the astronauts will enter our atmosphere at speeds over 32 000 km/h but the capsule will protect them and ensure a bumpy but safe landing.
ESA has designed and is overseeing the development of Orion’s service module, the part of the spacecraft that supplies air, electricity and propulsion. Much like a train engine pulls passenger carriages and supplies power, the European Service Module will take the Orion capsule to its destination and back.
Orion will go further than any other crewed spacecraft has before and European design and technology will make that happen.

Bremen, Germany. Orion's European Service Module is loaded on the Antonov airplane for transport to Kennedy Space Center.
For the first time, NASA will use a European-built system as a critical element to power an American spacecraft, extending the international cooperation of the International Space Station into deep space. The European Service Module is a unique collaboration across space agencies and industry including ESA’s prime contractor, Airbus, and 10 European countries. The completion of service module work in Europe and shipment to Kennedy signifies a major milestone toward NASA’s human deep space exploration missions to the Moon and beyond.

A look at the slew of MILS Modules that I aim to have all assembled by '22. While I have quite a few large and fancy Modules planned, I do also plan to make more of the little guys, because you can never have enough straights!
I will definitely need to figure out how to properly store and transport them, especially when it comes to the irregularly shaped ones.
The pneumatically controlled punch modules are used for perforating leather, rubber and textile materials.

Engineers worked meticulously to implant the James Webb Space Telescope's Mid-Infrared Instrument into the ISIM, or Integrated Science Instrument Module, in the cleanroom at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. As the successor to NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, the Webb telescope will be the most powerful space telescope ever built. It will observe the most distant objects in the universe, provide images of the first galaxies formed and see unexplored planets around distant stars.
A technician is installing the bolts that will hold the MIRI, or Mid-Infrared Instrument, to the composite Integrated Science Instrument Module (ISIM) structure, or the black frame. The MIRI is attached to a balance beam, called the Horizontal Integration Tool (HIT), hanging from a precision overhead crane. That's the same tool that Hubble engineers used to prepare hardware for its servicing missions. Photo Credit: NASA/Chris Gunn; Text Credit: NASA/Laura Betz
