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.
Finished assembling 24 modules, each from 9cm x 4.5cm rectangles. I am tempted to add more to complete the brown Hexagon on the left as well as the red one on the right. But I think I better stop here as there will not be an end to this tessellation.
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.

Baachalog, let’s see in this module, how we find out the industries competiveness and the behavior right, issues of industry and competitive analysis, now the dominant economic features of the industry and factors to consider industry’s economic features are market size, how many customers you gone supply right, what is your market size we need to know, what is the competitor market size, distribution channel of different, different companies say for an example Amul or may be Parle biscuits, how do they manufacture it, how they supply, how many agents, how many middle men, how they make the product available in the shop and finally to the consumers, thirdly capital requirement, what is the amount required and how easy is to enter in the industry and how easy is to exit in the industry an example insurance in India is not that easy right to enter into and exit in from, number four whether industries profitable or not profitable as for an example vada pav right now these people sell the vada pav 12 rs or 15 rs where the manufacturing cost is just 5 or 6 rs right, so you understand the profitability, so that is what we need to know before entering into any of the business, number of rivals present, buyers and their relative sizes, nature and strength of competition right, where in porters five forces model is useful in understanding the competition and yaa useful tool also they suggest, identification of companies in strong or weak position, strategic group mapping, study the market position of rival companies, strategic group mapping that is called as what Airtel is doing what Idea is doing right all that has to be studied by the Indian companies like Reliance and TATA right, what their competitors are upto. Now Issues of industry and Competitive Analysis, triggers of change or the driving forces, dominant forces can be called as now this thing comes for 2 marks, internet ecommerce opportunities and threats

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.

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!
I am re-posting this module which was created [discovered] in 1990. The main reason for re-posting this is that I found a more logical way to get that odd angle. The method is quite accurate but I do not think that it is Mathematically correct. The method is best illustrated by the photo diagram. Briefly, it shows the angles [in black] required for 4, 6, 8 modules assembly like stars, and coasters. Those angles radiate from the bottom left corner to the middle crease line. These angles can be easily generated by simple folds. Therefore, in order to get the angle required for a 5 piece assembly, logically, that angle should be in between 4 and 6. Can I logically assume that the bisector [circled and in red] the correct angle? Likewise, for a 7-piece assembly I take the bisector of 6 and 8 to be the correct angle. The interesting part here is that, that angle radiates from the corners to almost the middle of the opposite edge. I have assembled some 7 piece coasters quite accurately with this and will post them in due course. More details of this module was posted in 1993 - www.flickr.com/photos/61236172@N08/11003407114/in/datepos...

On 20th July, Armstrong and Aldrin became the first humans to walk on the Moon.
The Apollo XI mission was the first manned mission to land on the Moon. It was the 5th human spaceflight of Project Apollo and the 3rd voyage to the Moon. Launched on 16 Jul 1969, it carried Mission Commander Neil Alden Armstrong, Command Module Pilot Michael Collins, and Lunar Module Pilot Edwin Eugene 'Buzz' Aldrin, Jr.
The cover measures 9-inches by 6-inches and carries two postmarks from - 9 September 1969 (day of release in Washington) and 20 July 1969 the moon landing. The cover has embedded within it a 3.25-inch by 3-inch, METAL, replica of the plaque left on the lunar surface by Apollo XI. The cover also carries a superb drawing of the 'Stars & Stripes' being planted on the moon along with those immortal words from Neil Armstrong.
After a few hours of fun, I was able to identify all of the signatures....
1. Alphonzo E. Bell Jr. - Alphonzo Edward Bell Jr. (September 19, 1914 – April 25, 2004) was a Republican United States Representative from California. Bell represented Malibu and the influential Westside region of Los Angeles for eight terms, from 1961 to 1977. While in Congress, Bell represented a vast Congressional District — the 28th and, after re-districting, the 27th — running along the California coast from Malibu to the Palos Verdes Peninsula and encompassing all or part of Santa Monica, Pacific Palisades, Brentwood, Bel-Air and West L.A. Then considered a Republican stronghold, the district nevertheless had only 40% to 49% GOP voter registration, making bi-partisan support for a candidate for office essential. In Congress, Bell became known as tending toward conservative positions on foreign policy and defense — he backed the Vietnam War through three presidential administrations — but often took more moderate to liberal positions on domestic issues, including open housing laws and other civil rights legislation, as well as on environmental and preservation issues, and on education policy and reform.

2. Larry Winn Jr. - Edward Lawrence Winn Jr. (August 22, 1919 – December 31, 2017) was an American politician and member of the U.S. House of Representatives representing Kansas's 3rd district from 1967 to 1985. He was a member of the Republican Party. Born in Kansas City, Missouri, Winn participated in athletics at Southwest High School before losing one of his legs in a boating accident at Lake Lotawana when he was sixteen. He earned a B.A. in journalism from University of Kansas in 1941. After graduating, Winn worked for a Kansas City radio station for two years and, during World War II, worked for North American Aviation at Fairfax Field, north of Kansas City, Kansas, where the B-25 Mitchell bomber was manufactured. He then pursued a career in home building and was vice president of the Winn-Rau Corporation from 1950 until his election to Congress. Additionally, he was a director of the National Association of Home Builders for fourteen years and was president of the Home Builders Association of Kansas. Winn was first elected to the U.S. House of Representatives as a Republican from the Wyandotte and Johnson Counties-based 3rd congressional district in 1966, succeeding three-term congressman Robert Ellsworth, and would be reelected eight more times until his retirement in 1984. During his tenure, he served on the House Committee on Foreign Affairs and was a congressional representative to the United Nations. He was succeeded by fellow Republican Jan Meyers. Winn met his wife, Joan Elliott, while attending college and the two would be married for seventy-three years until her death in 2015. Together, they had five children; the death of their son Robert in 1983 played a part in the senior Winn's decision to retire from Congress. He lived in Prairie Village until his death on December 31, 2017, at age 98. LINK to a photo - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_Winn#/media/File:Larry_Winn.jpeg

3. Earle Cabell (October 27, 1906 – September 24, 1975) was an American politician who served as the 48th mayor of Dallas from 1961 to 1964. Cabell was mayor at the time of the assassination of United States President John F. Kennedy and was later a member of the U.S. House of Representatives. He was a conservative Democrat. In October 1961 President Kennedy flew to Dallas but when he arrived at the airport he was greeted only by the Dallas chief of police. Cabell claimed he was too busy to meet Kennedy and the White House was reportedly "steaming over the official brush-off".
Assassination of President Kennedy
Cabell and his wife met United States President John F. Kennedy and Mrs. Kennedy at Love Field on the morning of November 22, 1963. Cabell's wife reported that while riding in Kennedy's motorcade through Dealey Plaza, she observed "a rather long looking thing" sticking out of a window of the Texas School Book Depository immediately after the first shot. After receiving word from the Federal Bureau of Investigation that he was the subject of a death threat, Cabell was guarded by police when he traveled to Washington, D.C. to attend Kennedy's funeral and also upon his return to Dallas. Cabell defended the Dallas PD after Oswald was killed by Jack Ruby in their custody. He said that he was proud of the police force and that those critical of their conduct were only looking for "someone else to blame". He added that "they have performed admirable under the most difficult of circumstances". One version of John F. Kennedy assassination conspiracy theories, the "Renegade CIA Clique" theory, implicates Cabell and other alleged conspirators, including CIA officials James Jesus Angleton, William King Harvey, and Cabell's brother Charles Cabell, who had been fired by Kennedy following the Bay of Pigs Invasion. This theory claims that Earle Cabell re-routed Kennedy's motorcade as a favor to his brother. In 2017, documents declassified under the JFK Records Act revealed that Cabell had been a CIA asset since 1956.
Congress - On February 3, 1964, Cabell resigned as mayor of Dallas in order to run for Congress. He unseated the ten-year Republican incumbent Bruce Alger. Cabell served four terms in the House before he was defeated by Republican Alan Steelman in the 1972 election. A very rare autograph...

4. Louis Frey Jr. (January 11, 1934 – October 14, 2019) was an American lawyer and politician who served as a Republican member of the United States House of Representatives from 1969 until 1979. He represented Florida's 5th congressional district from 1969 to 1973 and the 9th district from 1973 to 1979, until he ran unsuccessfully in 1978 for the Republican nomination for governor to succeed the term-limited Democrat Reubin Askew of Pensacola. Congress - Frey was first elected in 1968 to succeed Edward Gurney, who in turn became Florida's first Republican U.S. Senator since Reconstruction. Frey himself is the fourth Florida Republican to have been elected to the U.S. House in the 20th century. While in Congress, Frey served on the Interstate and Foreign Commerce Committee, the Science and Technology Committee, and the Select Committee on Narcotics Abuse and Control. Frey received the "Watch Dog of the Treasury Award" in each of his terms for "voting to hold the line against inflation and to curb excess government spending." He also received the "Guardian of Small Business Award". LINK to a photo - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Frey_Jr.#/media/File:Louis_Fr...

5. Bob Price - Robert Dale Price (September 7, 1927 – August 24, 2004) was an American politician of the Republican Party who served in the United States House of Representatives from 1967 to 1975, and in the Texas Senate from 1978 to 1981. Congress - Price was elected as a Republican to the 90th and to the three succeeding Congresses (serving from January 3, 1967 to January 3, 1975). While in Congress, Price served on the House Agriculture Committee and on subcommittees on NASA oversight and spaceflight. Price voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1968. In 1971, Price was the sole Republican in the state's congressional delegation to vote for the Equal Employment Opportunity Act. In 1974, Price lost his re-election bid to Democrat Jack Hightower.

6. Joe Waggonner - Joseph David Waggonner Jr. (September 7, 1918 – October 7, 2007) was a Democratic U.S. Representative for the 4th congressional district in northwest Louisiana from December 1961 to January 1979. He was also a confidant of Republican President Richard Nixon. Waggonner won a special election on December 19, 1961, to succeed long-time U.S. Representative Overton Brooks, who had died in office. Waggonner had already announced his intention to oppose Brooks for renomination in the 1962 Democratic primary, spurred by Brooks' congressional vote to expand the House Rules Committee to permit Speaker Sam Rayburn to add new liberal members to the panel, which was dominated at the time by minority conservatives from both national parties. In the special election, Waggonner turned back a relatively strong Republican challenge from Charlton Lyons, an Abbeville native and a Shreveport oilman. Waggonner polled 33,892 votes (54.5 percent) to Lyons' 28,250 ballots (45.5 percent). Over his eight re-elections, he faced opposition only twice, easily turning back primary challenges both times.

He is buried in Arlington National Cemetery. Congressional career - While in Congress, he was a champion for veterans, authoring more veterans' legislation than any congressmember before him. He was one of the majority of the Texan delegation to decline to sign the 1956 Southern Manifesto opposing the desegregation of public schools ordered by the Supreme Court in Brown v. Board of Education. However, Teague voted against the Civil Rights Acts of 1957, the Civil Rights Acts of 1960, the Civil Rights Acts of 1964, and the Civil Rights Acts of 1968, as well as the 24th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. He was instrumental in improving benefits for servicemen's survivors. In 1956, he helped overhaul the survivor's benefits, with the creation of the Dependency and Indemnity Compensation. He was also chairman of the House Democratic Caucus, chairman of the House Committee on Veterans Affairs (1955–1972), and chairman of the House Committee on Science and Astronautics (1973–1978). Before 1973, he also chaired the Manned Space Flight Subcommittee and in that capacity oversaw NASA's efforts to place a man on the moon. In 1976, Teague was pivotal in establishing the Office of Science and Technology Policy. LINK to his photo - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olin_E._Teague#/media/File:Olin_E._...

9. Wayne N. Aspinall - Wayne Norviel Aspinall (April 3, 1896 – October 9, 1983) was an American lawyer and politician from Colorado. He is largely known for his tenure in the United States House of Representatives, serving twelve terms as a Democrat from 1949 to 1973 from Colorado's Fourth District. Aspinall became known for his direction of the House Interior and Insular Affairs Committee, of which he was the chairman from 1959 to 1973. Aspinall focused the majority of his efforts on Western land and water issues. His actions supporting resource development often drew the ire of the increasingly powerful environmental lobby in the 1960s. David Brower, a prominent executive director of the Sierra Club, said that the environmental movement had seen "dream after dream dashed on the stony continents of Wayne Aspinall." The congressman returned the animosity, calling environmentalists "over-indulged zealots" and "aristocrats" to whom "balance means nothing." This battle shaped Aspinall's congressional career.

(See links). Meteor Crater is a meteorite impact crater about 37 mi east of Flagstaff and 18 mi west of Winslow in the northern Arizona desert of the United States. It was designated a National Natural Landmark in November 1967.
Diameter: 0.737 miles
Depth: 560 feet
The size of the asteroid that produced the impact is uncertain—likely in the range of 100 to 170 feet (30 to 50 meters) across—but it had to be large enough to excavate 175 million metric tons of rock.
The crater was created about 50,000 years ago. The crater came to the attention of scientists after American settlers encountered it in the 19th century. In 1903, mining engineer and businessman Daniel M. Barringer suggested that the crater had been produced by the impact of a large iron-metallic meteorite. During the 1960s and 1970s, NASA astronauts trained in the crater to prepare for the Apollo missions to the Moon.

Meteor Crater is a popular tourist attraction privately owned by the Barringer family through the Barringer Crater Company, with an admission fee charged to see the crater. The Meteor Crater Visitor Center on the north rim features interactive exhibits and displays about meteorites and asteroids, space, the Solar System, and comets. It features the American Astronaut Wall of Fame and such artifacts on display as an Apollo boilerplate command module (BP-29), a 1,406 lb meteorite found in the area, and meteorite specimens from Meteor Crater that can be touched. Formerly known as the Museum of Astrogeology, the Visitor Center includes a movie theater, a gift shop, and observation areas with views inside the rim of the crater. Guided tours of the rim are offered daily, weather permitting.
