MILS module: BTM with a small lake

I have added an Apollo translation controller (left) and rotation controllers (Block I center and Block II on right) to the Command Module couch. They easily snapped into place.

 

This Block II design was manufactured in May 1968, and carries Serial Numbers 1 and 2 (marking plates in photos below).

 

From the NASA Technical Note: "The Block II couch consisted of three individual body supports that were attached by pip pins and clamps to a supporting framework. The body supports could be folded at the hip joint and knee joint, had provisions for locking the seat pan at two angles other than that of the folded position, were capable of being folded at approximately the shoulder position, and could be detached from the framework for storage. The body supports also could be detached and folded in flight by a crewman in a pressurized space suit. As in the case of side-hatch EVA, the center body support is detached and stowed under the couch of the spacecraft commander. The headrest was adjustable in flight for any size crewman and for any pressure-suit condition. The backpan portion of the body support was constructed of Teflon-coated fiber glass, which would conform to the crewman for comfortable support. Restraint of the crewman was the same as in the Apollo 7 couch with the six-point harness and the passive heel restraint."

The local train LUG's layout is always a hit! Kids can operate the crane in the busy freightyard, light up the tree in front of the main station, or drive a classic steam train in front of the frozen waterfall.

10 done, 10 more to go.

I am not going to make it :S

But I'll try anyway.

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

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.

Now you can purchase pdf templates of my recent curved folding modules!

Le Corbusier described it as a "range of harmonious measurements to suit the human scale, universally applicable to architecture and to mechanical things."

Here is my LDD model of the Apollo Lunar Module. It is built to minifig scale. As always, leave a comment if you like.

For Teunis. Doesn't meet the M>LTC modular standard's requirement for a standalone module, but makes it easier to fit modules in a yard module set together.

The two modules are connected with round plates.

LCROSS and LRO are heading back to the moon, but this picture offers some nice historical perspective.

 

Date of original image: July 16, 1969

 

"Carrying astronauts Neil A. Armstrong and Edwin E. Aldrin, Jr., the Lunar Module (LM) "Eagle" was the first crewed vehicle to land on the Moon. The LM landed on the moon's surface on July 20, 1969 in the region known as Mare Tranquilitatis (the Sea of Tranquility). The LM is shown here making its descent to the lunar surface, while Astronaut Collins piloted the Command Module in a parking orbit around the Moon. The Apollo 11 mission launched from The Kennedy Space Center, Florida aboard a Saturn V launch vehicle on July 16, 1969 and safely returned to Earth on July 24, 1969. The 3-man crew aboard the flight consisted of Neil A. Armstrong, commander; Michael Collins, Command Module pilot; and Edwin E. Aldrin Jr., Lunar Module pilot. Armstrong was the first human to ever stand on the lunar surface. As he stepped off the LM, Armstrong proclaimed, "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind". He was followed by Edwin (Buzz) Aldrin, describing the lunar surface as Magnificent desolation. The crew collected 47 pounds of lunar surface material which was returned to Earth for analysis. The surface exploration was concluded in 2½ hours. With the success of Apollo 11, the national objective to land men on the Moon and return them safely to Earth had been accomplished. The Saturn V vehicle was developed by the Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) under the direction of Dr. von Braun."

The Theed Palace modules shown in a previous diorama have been extended from the basic two modules in the middle to four. There's now two modules with the windows and a roof module (expansion pack).

 

Some scenes to demonstrate their use are currently in progress.

I created this graphic because I felt overwhelmed with how many Drupal modules were out there, and I wanted to have a single cheat sheet that I could print out and reference. But this proved to be impossible, and it took me splitting up this massive photo into 5 subsections listed above in order to legibly print out all of the modules -- all of the modules as of November 9th, 2007 that is. (There's been another 20+ new projects created since then according to http://drupal.org/taxonomy/term/14/0).

 

A couple of technical points: The modules are color coded according to the 30 categories listed here: http://drupal.org/project/Modules

 

Also this massive graphic actually has repeating modules in the sense that if a module is in three different categories, then it'll be listed 3 different times.

 

There were also 36 projects that weren't categorized and inadvertently left out of this big graphic, but were included in part 5 of the cheat sheet -- along with the project pages that have been created without a release, projects w/ deprecated HEAD or pre-4.7.x releases & CVS namespaces that don't have a current project page.

 

Finally, this listing doesn't take into consideration the fact that many Drupal project releases actually contain multiple modules within them. For example, the Drupal for Facebook module is actually composed of 9 modules.

iss059e017127 (April 9, 2018) --- NASA astronaut and Expedition 59 Flight Engineer Christina Koch works inside the U.S. Destiny laboratory module's Combustion Integrated Rack. She was replacing hardware for a series of experiments collectively known as Advanced Combustion via Microgravity Experiments (ACME). ACME is a set of five independent studies researching improved fuel efficiency and reduced pollutant production in practical combustion on Earth, as well as spacecraft fire prevention through innovative research focused on materials flammability.

This may be the most boring module of them all, I'm glad I got this one done already.

5 modules done, 15 more to go.

The Orion spacecraft will ferry astronauts to the Moon on NASA's Artemis missions. The European Service Module is ESA’s contribution to Orion and provides electricity, water, oxygen and nitrogen as well as keeping the spacecraft at the right temperature and on course. In case of a problem during launch the European Service Module can also activate to fly the astronauts to safety. This infographic shows the steps of an untargeted abort.

First module using the NELTC mainline standard. I really dig the wedge plate accent on the outside of the ballast. I am reasonably happy with the trees, but may tinker with the tops.

I realized that the colour scheme I choose for Module 1 did not match the rest of the base so I've re-done it in red.

Module 18,

I ran out of dark gray, I used blue instead and then covered it with some greenery.

A temporary solution so I could present something at BM Limburg.

It consists of 2 base modules (16 x 16 and 16 x 32 studs) with an 8 x 8 hole in the middle.

You can then place all kinds of submodules in those openings, such as:

walkway

flower bed

fountain

tree

statue for example set 40221

mosaic

...

 

Combine them however you want to have a different view every time.

The good news is that I've already started on the 9 remaining modules but the question remains; will they be finished in time?
