The ultimate way of advertising what you sell, cover the body panels with the product, in this case artificial grass.
The mission to return martian samples back to Earth will see a European 2.5 metre-long robotic arm pick up tubes filled with precious soil from Mars and transfer them to a rocket for an historic interplanetary delivery.
The sophisticated robot, known as the Sample Transfer Arm or STA, will play a crucial role in the success of the Mars Sample Return campaign. The joint endeavour between NASA and ESA aims to bring back martian samples to the best labs in our planet by 2033.
The robotic arm will land on Mars to retrieve the sample tubes NASA’s Perseverance rover is currently collecting from the surface. Able to “see”, “feel” and take autonomous decisions, the Sample Transfer Arm will identify, pick up and transfer the tubes into the first rocket fired off another planet – the Mars Launch System.
Only after the robot closes the container’s lid, the martian samples will be launched for rendezvous with ESA’s Earth Return Orbiter (ERO) and bring the material back to Earth.
The Sample Transfer Arm is conceived to be autonomous, highly reliable and robust.
Its architecture mimics a human arm with a shoulder, elbow and wrist, and has its own built-in brain and eyes. The robot can perform a large range of movements with seven degrees of freedom.

I believe this is a female (or juvenile) Rufous Hummingbird, migrating right now, stopping for some energy here in San Luis Obispo, California.

taking a sample for a test run.
I like how it sits better with each wear, taking the form of my wrist.
It wasn't until I made the black sample, that I discovered a threading error with eight threads. So I made some repair heddles, cut this sample piece off, then retied and made one more full repeat to make sure there was nothing else. I thought I might continue with the grey and yellow (see comparison a few photos down), but I think I prefer the grey and natural.
brought to our Connections retreat at Sybil's this month...I could not resist photographing them because of the interesting secondary pattern the four tiny pieces made.
I took this class several years ago, when it was taught by Eileen in London, Ontario ...and I made a similar sample piece.
Eileen lives in British Columbia.

These are samples for a wedding order. The bride has requested vanilla cupcakes filled with vanilla bean cream, topped with chocolate mint frosting and chocolate cupcakes filled with fresh raspberries, topped with nutella hazelnut cream frosting.
Where there's tons of food to choose from, I guess sometimes you just need to sit and sample the goods, like this little chipmunk is doing, before you start carting it all off.
After all, you have to make sure to take the good stuff and leave the weird stuff like those ginormous walnuts for those pesky squirrels.

This was taken with my new camera, the Sony Nex 6 and the kit zoom lens; 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS
I wanted a lighter weight 2nd camera, as carrying a full-frame with a huge pro-lens can really take its toll on my already damaged spine!
I don't think it will ever replace my full-frame for landscape work etc, however it is a dream to walk around with and once I get a decent lens for it (and judging by the above image), I think I may get some good results.
If anyone has advice regarding a good lens for it please let me know.
I am considering the Carl Zeiss 24mm 1.8 or the Sony 10-18mm f/4 but leaning towards the CZ.
