Quick doodle of a shuttle "landing" or phasing into N-space. The shuttle is fairly goofy but the angular shape was fun and above all easy to place around with transparency effects.
The American Industrial Mining Company did a great job on the restoration of this Joy 10SC Shuttle Car (seen here previously: flic.kr/p/nNsY92 )

I'm very happy with the shapes of this one, and the fact that the wings close up to the right height as well!

All aboard at terminal two, Dublin Port, the Stena Line shuttle bus about to depart with foot passengers onto the Stena Europe in the foreground.
Stena Europe was deputising for the week while Estrid was dry docked at Belfast.
Former Manchester Ship Canal Company 'Canal' Class no. 32 'Gothenburg' (built 1903) is pictured near Springside on the 3rd June 2017 whilst working the 10.50 Bury to Ramsbottom shuttle service during the 'Small Engines Weekend'.
I had expected 'Gothenburg' to be in a smart black livery, as when I last saw it a couple of years ago, so was somewhat disappointed when it appeared in 'Thomas' blue, though it did make for a colourful scene.

The Lambda Class Shuttle is one of my favorite spaceship designs with its birdlike look. I like the elegant curves and the transformative wing mechanism, furthermore the landing gear setup with just two legs is exciting!
With the introduction of all the recent new parts I was able to create the round forms and fluent lines of the original studio model.
It is difficult to find exact reference material for this ship, most of the blueprints and imagery, which are available online, are not correct to the original studio models. I've ended up using my own photographs I've managed to take at the amazing Star Wars Identities exhibition.
The model is a scratch build MOC, there are some familiar elements to the LEGO UCS model as well as Dmac's www.flickr.com/photos/dmaclego original design. My main focus was an accurate cockpit design (it’s still not perfect but I like my solution), the inclusion of play features, a full interior completed with PF functions, lights and more.
The model features:
- motorized foldable wings
- boarding ramp
- retractable landing gear
- detailed cockpit and interior
- turning canons
- landing lights
- working sublight engine
It is bigger than the official set with 94 cm in width and 102 cm in hight (on the stand). I've used up to 6000 parts for the model including an PF medium motor and 7 PF lights.
For the scenes I've used secondary builds, the Death Star ll and a midscaled Star Destroyer based on Brickdoctors www.flickr.com/photos/legoarts/ design both of which are adding several hundred parts. For the Endor scene I've used around 10000 parts. Even the planets used for the space scenes are based on LEGO parts (Planet series: Endor and Tatooin for the red Planet).
I'm happy how my build came together, I hope you like it as well! Thanks.

This project started out with me seeing some concept art by Ivan Tantsiura. The engines in particular really caught my attention. More boxy than what you normally see. So I decided to run with the concept.
The idea behind the shuttle itself was less scientific like NASAs shuttles, and more commercial. Carrying corporate employees to stations in Earth orbit. So the interior is more luxurious than you might expect with plenty of leg room. Even the cockpit has some measure of luxury, despite a lot of that being overridden with function The seat would have neural ports for the pilots to control the aircraft, something I couldn't manage on the model itself but the idea lives on in my imagination. Now, on the other hand, you don't want to waste money on too much luxury, so the rear cargo bay is bare metal with industrial warnings and hardpoints for securing luggage. Really embracing that military cargo bay feel. All in all I am really happy with the interior. I even managed to make room for figs!
I had just as much fun with the exterior. I wanted a super clean look that was reminiscent of our real-world shuttles, but still carried on more sci-fi design cues. The engines are an obvious start to that concept. Those were taken wholesale from the concept art I mentioned earlier, then modified and adapted to suit what I had in mind. The rest of the shuttle took shape from an early sketch I did of the top profile. And I swear I was using that leading edge design before the UCS Batwing was announced, that's what I'm saying to make myself feel better at least.
Obviously, another important part of the exterior is the color blocking. The orange came pretty naturally. It contrasts well without being too bright. And the part availability meant I had access to enough parts to really clean up the lines. The orange section on the underside makes me especially happy.
And that's really a good note to end on, I'm just really happy with this build. It let me have some fun and I think the final pruduct reflects that. As always, instructions are available on Rebrickable. rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-89840/AsgardianStudio/cyberpunk-...

Imperial Shuttle from Star Wars, in midi-scale.
Decided to put this one up on Lego Ideas, along with my Ranger, so please support it if you like it:
The famous monument "Buzludzha", memories from the comunists era in Bulgaria. Now ruins and attraction for people from all over to discover this rare architecture on the peak in the Central Balkan Mountains.

The Space Shuttle Atlantis moves within 80 feet of Russia's Mir Space Station during rendezvous and docking operations. During the STS-74 mission, the crew used an IMAX camera to document the Space Shuttle Atlantis' rendezvous and docking with the Mir Space Station. The 65mm camera system was located in the Atlantis' cargo bay and provided a unique fish-eye perspective. These images were selected from footage that was incorporated in a large-format feature film about NASA's cooperative program with the Russians.

We were stepping out of the Star Wars ride at Disneyland, looked up to see the Space Shuttle Endeavour fly over on it's Boeing 747 transport, along with it's escort plane, to it's final display location at the California Science Center in Los Angeles. Lucky timing!

Editor's note: happy Friday, Flickr friends! While we can't all get this kind of sky view, hope you get to enjoy the waning gibbous moon in the skies over Earth this weekend.

Seen here in Giles Car Park within the University of Kent complex in Canterbury are Go-Coach 5013 YJ62 FUD (left) and 5014 YJ62 FUG (right) displaying both sets of blinds for a route 43 shuttle between Canterbury and Wingham Lane which was to start the following day. Sunday 7th August 2022.
From Monday 8th August for two weeks. Go-Coach was hired by Stagecoach South East to operate a shuttle on route 43 between Canterbury Bus Station and Wingham Lane (the return to the A257 was made via Ickham & Nargate Street) due to works taking place on the bridge over the Nail Bourne. 5013 worked from Monday 8th to Friday 12th August being swapped with 5014 during the lunch period at Canterbury. 5014 was swapped with 3902 on Tuesday 16th August and that worked upto Sunday 21st August with the road re-opening from the following Monday. The actual route 43 to Sandwich was diverted down the A2 to Aylesham and then to Wingham before resuming its normal line of route.

The Shuttle Discovery is reflected in a puddle on its final rollover, in preparation for its last mission, STS-133.
Due to PTC and a new shuttle train elevator being built, Endicott is the epicenter of grain operations on WATCO's Hooper and Pleasant ValleySubs. During harvest season, the elevator will load multiple unit trains for shiment to the coast. I believe they run all the way to Portland rather than transloading to a barge at Wallula like they previously did.
On this morning I was hanging around Lower Monument Dam when an empty grainer of UP cars came scooting up the Snake River. Suspecting that it was the shuttle train, I was able to catch it here coming into the elevator at Endicott.

The other shuttle operating on the Sunday, from Thirlmere to Picton (not quite) and back, worked by 3526 and 3265. They are seen here climbing through Redbank, on the loop line, on one of the return shuttles from Picton.
Interestingly, the shuttles didn't operate even remotely close to Picton station, stopping before the train even came into view of either of the foot bridges (which we found out the hard way!)
Space Shuttle Endeavour flying over Austin, TX on its ferry flight to LA. I got this from the roof of my building (RLM) and I'm glad I decided to come in to work early in hopes of catching it!
