NJ TRANSIT GP40PH-2B 4208 sits outside the Hoboken Enginehouse for the first time since receiving a Conrail blue paint dip. The 4208 is the fourth heritage GP40 to enter the NJT fleet, and is the agency's seventh heritage locomotive.
The 4208 was built 56 years ago as Penn Central 3191, which was eventually acquired by Conrail before being purchased by NJ TRANSIT and converted to a GP40PH-2B by Juniata Locomotive Works in 1994.

Gelede Schindler 242 lijkt gereed te staan voor levering aan het Rotterdamse trambedrijf in 1957. In werkelijkheid zien we de gerestaureerde wagen van het Rotterdams Openbaar Vervoer Museum anno 2023. De buitenzijde is geheel gerestaureerd waarbij de kop van het rijtuig en een groot deel van de beplating vernieuwd zijn. Aan het interieur en aan de elketrische installatie moet echter nog veel gebeuren. Het zal nog geruime tijd duren voor de 242 op eigen kracht met passagiers de remise zal verlaten. Er zijn echter reeds grote stappen gezet en het resultaat is veelbelovend!

Ariane 5 VA 260 with Juice, start of rollout on Tuesday 11 April.
Juice is being prepared to launch from Europe’s Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana, on 13 April 2023.
Juice – JUpiter ICy moons Explorer – is humankind’s next bold mission to the outer Solar System. This ambitious mission will characterise Ganymede, Callisto and Europa with a powerful suite of remote sensing, geophysical and in situ instruments to discover more about these compelling destinations as potential habitats for past or present life. Juice will monitor Jupiter’s complex magnetic, radiation and plasma environment in depth and its interplay with the moons, studying the Jupiter system as an archetype for gas giant systems across the Universe.
Following launch, Juice will embark on an eight-year journey to Jupiter, arriving in July 2031 with the aid of momentum and direction gained from four gravity-assist fly-bys of the Earth-Moon system, Venus and, twice, Earth.
Flight VA260 will be the final Ariane 5 flight to carry an ESA mission to space.

This photo shows the X-15-1 (56-6670) rocket powered research aircraft as it was rolled out in 1958. At this time, the XLR-99 rocket engine was not ready, so to make the low-speed flights (below Mach 3), the X-15 team fitted a pair of XLR-11 engines into the modified rear fuselage. These were basically the same engines used in the X-1 aircraft.

News headlines: Aliens have invaded our planet! They have abducted hundreds of millions of people around the world. They all disappeared at once, in a split second, causing chaos and confusion. The Air Force shot down several UFOs (hobbyist balloons). They even shot down a Chinese spy balloon. Don’t worry: these Chinese spy balloons were also flying over America during Trump’s presidency, but the NWO Deep State never informed him. Quick, rollout Project Blue Beam 2.0 (false flag alien invasion psyops)! We must cover up these strange disappearances. “Welcome to the age of the polycrisis.” “Never waste a good crisis.”

Harvard: PHYSICAL CONSTRAINTS ON UNIDENTIFIED AERIAL PHENOMENA (Draft under review)
“Nevertheless, the coincidences between some orbital parameters of ‘Oumuamua and IM2 inspires us to consider the possibility that an artificial interstellar object could potentially be a parent craft that releases many small probes during its close passage to Earth, an operational construct not too dissimilar from NASA missions. These “dandelion seeds” could be separated from the parent craft by the tidal gravitational force of the Sun or by a maneuvering capability. A small ejection speed far away could lead to a large deviation from the trajectory of the parent craft near the Sun. The changes would manifest both in arrival time and distance of closest approach to Earth. With proper design, these tiny probes would reach the Earth or other Solar system planets for exploration, as the parent craft passes by within a fraction of the Earth-Sun separation - just like ‘Oumuamua did.”
“Equipped with a large surface-to-mass ratio of a parachute, technological “dandelion seeds” could slow down in the Earth’s atmosphere to avoid burnup and then pursue their objectives wherever they land.”
“Within a close range to a star, extraterrestrial technological probes could use starlight to charge their batteries and liquid water as their fuel.”
“What would be the overarching purpose of the journey? In analogy with actual dandelion seeds, the probes could propagate the blueprint of their senders. As with biological seeds, the raw materials on the planet’s surface could also be used by them as nutrients for self-replication or simply scientific exploration. It is important to note, that given the time scales associated with the propulsion scheme discussed here, it is unreasonable to assert that the intention of any such probe launched in the far distant past, has anything to do with the human species. More likely, and similar to NASA’s missions – the goal would be scientific and exploratory in nature.”
“Are there any functioning extraterrestrial probes near Earth? We do not know.”
“Consequently, the mothership/probe scenario is more energetically viable.”
“In principle, a multitude of tiny devices can be released from a mothership that passes near Earth.”
“The considerations in this paper imply a useful limit on observations of UAP which bound the hypothetical explanations and can support limitations on interpretations of data.”

Rapture:
“Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed—in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.”
“First, the dead who believed in Christ will come back to life. Then, together with them, we who are still alive will be taken in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. In this way we will always be with the Lord.”

The rocket that will launch NASA’s Orion spacecraft to the Moon with the European Service Module on its way to the launchpad in Florida, USA, for its first full test before the Artemis I launch later this year.
The Space Launch Systems rocket (SLS) left the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center at around 23:00 CET (22:00 GMT) on 17 March on the start of its 6.5 km trip to Launchpad LC39B.
In the preceding months the Orion spacecraft with European Service Module had been placed on top of the rocket. The first Artemis mission will send Orion to the Moon and back, farther than any human-rated spacecraft has travelled before. ESA’s European Service Module is the powerhouse that fuels and propels Orion, and provides everything needed to keep astronauts alive with water, oxygen, power and temperature control.

With launch set for 13 December, the Ariane 5 rocket carrying the Meteosat Third Generation Imager (MTG-I1) satellite is rolling out to the launch pad. The rocket also carries two ‘co-passenger’ satellites: Intelsat Galaxy 35 and 36. MTGI-1 carries two completely new instrument that will deliver high-quality data to improve weather forecasts: a Flexible Combined Imager and Europe’s first Lightning Imager.
Once in geostationary orbit, 36,000 km above the equator, the all-new MTG-I1 weather satellite will provide state-of-the art observations of Earth’s atmosphere and realtime monitoring of lightning events, taking weather forecasting to the next level.
MTGI-1 carries two completely new instrument that will deliver high-quality data to improve weather forecasts: a Flexible Combined Imager and Europe’s first Lightning Imager.
The Flexible Combined Imager has more spectral channels and is capable of imaging in higher resolution compared to current Meteosat Second Generation’s Spinning Enhanced Visible and Infrared instrument.
The Lightning Imager offers a completely new capability for European meteorological satellites. It will continuously monitor more than 80% of the Earth disc for lightning discharges, taking place either between clouds or between clouds and the ground. This new instrument will allow severe storms to be detected in their early stages and will therefore be key for issuing timely warnings. Its detectors are so sensitive that will be able to detect relatively weak lightning, even in full daylight.
