"A closer look at the 'SpaceCraft' .
We know now, from a well informed source, that they have been here before. This is a new generation of the "Origaliens", they use the 'triangle-lifestyle', where as their ancestors where more 'square-minded'. Of course that visit, some years ago, was also good recorded, as you can see in this 'documentation'."
I folded the tessellation "Spacecraft "with a bigger hexagon 43cm (grid 1:64", "Anett paper" ) and using the same basics as in 'Dance'. Then altering this one in really 3D.
If you are interested to see more, have a look at my tessellation album Origami - Tessellation Progression".
"Blueprint of Spacecraft, giving by the Origaliens. We are told that they are resting now, recharging their battery. "
Happy weekend everyone ;-))

"We proudly present you a photo of the "SpaceCraft", which is approaching Earth too.
On the left you can see where one of the spaceships must land, when it returns home.
The aliens are looking forwards to meet and greet us, they mean no harm and come in peace. From an anonymous, but trustworthy source. "

The backside, which I call "MoToR" looks different too.

Крылатый космический аппарат БОР-4 (беспилотный орбитальный ракетоплан) предназначался для отработки в условиях реального космического полета теплозащиты будущего орбитального корабля «Буран». Носовая часть аппарата повторяла обводы носовой части будущего «Бурана». Общий вид аппарата БОР-4 представлял собой уменьшенный в два раза советский орбитальный самолет, создававшийся по программе «Спираль» в 70-е годы. Тогда этот проект осуществлен не был, но в рамках его реализации проводились короткие суборбитальные испытательные полеты уменьшенных аппаратов БОР-1, БОР-2 и БОР-3.
БОР-4 имел небольшие размеры: длину около 4 м и вес менее 1,5 т — почти как автомобиль. Двигатели, топливо, бортовая ЭВМ, системы автоматики и навигации — вот все, что удалось разместить в его фюзеляже. Чтобы при посадке не повредить испытываемые образцы теплозащиты, было принято решение сажать БОР-4 на воду. Небольшого парашюта для мягкого приводнения было достаточно...................................The BOR-4 cruise spacecraft (an unmanned orbital rocket plane) was intended for testing the thermal protection of the future Buran orbiter in real space flight conditions. The nose of the device repeated the contours of the nose of the future "Buran". The general appearance of the BOR-4 apparatus was a Soviet orbital aircraft reduced by half, created under the Spiral program in the 70s. At that time, this project was not implemented, but as part of its implementation, short suborbital test flights of the reduced BOR-1, BOR-2 and BOR-3 spacecraft were carried out.
The BOR-4 was small in size: about 4 m long and weighing less than 1.5 tons — almost like a car. Engines, fuel, on—board computer, automation and navigation systems - that's all that could be placed in its fuselage. In order not to damage the tested thermal protection samples during landing, it was decided to plant BORON-4 on water. A small parachute for a soft landing was enough.

That's the thought that ran through my head looking at this image. What it is, if you haven't guessed, is a water drop on top of an unopened fireweed flower. I just love the look! And thanks for taking a look!

In galaxy and nebulae
Mirrors the deep and lustrous
Kind of planet
Reflecting its alike twins
Already existing for trillion generations
The trillion light years beyond the universe and outer space
In galaxy and nebulae
Matters not a daytime or a night
The planets distributed the gravity without right or wrong
Flying stones, dusts and rocks drifting without gain or loss
Nebula alternating its light and dark in deep outburst
The instant birth and death of meteor’s collision
In galaxy and nebulae
Every moment is like this life
Setting forth the human in earth
The future is an unpredictable journey
Subsisting in a spacecraft with constant temperature
The heading direction beyond cold and hot
In galaxy and nebulae
Sperm and ovum combining the continuation of embryo
Youth withered in flight
Life a newborn in flight
Soaring further to a deep and gloomy milky way
The difference of love and hate gradually lost its remembrance
In galaxy and nebulae
The countless stars flashing high in universe
Dodging a farewell, separation is beyond the countless light years
Suddenly find one like the twin of earth
A new birth or a casting shadow?
The contradiction of lonesomeness and intimacy entangled in an encounter

Some modern office building remind more of a grounded spacecraft than a piece of architecture. This is a building close to London Bridge, with lots of mirroring glass and steel frames. It was a bright but cloudy day, showing very nice reflections and high contrast between the light and darker parts of the building's surface.

Do you think this looks like a UFO?

Rescue 3 was a medium tug, mainly used near space stations. It was equipped with a pair of extendable magnetic clamps. The tug's colour scheme indicated its emergency role.

When I built my hydrogen tanker for SHIPtember, I trialled some hexagonal shapes. Unfortunately, I didn't have of enough bricks to make it over 100 studs long. This ship is only 42 studs long and doesn't require an internal frame for strength, like a SHIP might do.
There are more images and a video of the magnetic clamps' pantograph mechanism on Instagram.

There I was taking photos of trees and similar shots when all of a sudden a ship came down from above - a space ship that is and these two made their presence known !! Fear not , they said they come in peace - well that's what they said anyway !!
so wird es aussehen, wenn ein solches Vehikel über dir landet um dich aufzunehmen ... ;-) ...

...nevertheless humans managed to capture an alien spacecraft!
We did a road trip from California to Utah. We drove along the Extraterrestrial Highway in Nevada, and stopped at the Little A'Le'Inn, located near the mysterious Area 51. An old truck is parked in front of the restaurant. It was very windy that night, and I had to take several shots until I got one where the flying saucer was not moving too much. The title is a quote by Neil deGrasse Tyson, well a joke by him in an interview.
I processed a paintery and a balanced HDR photo from four RAW exposures, blended them selectively, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.

Brickworld Chicago 2025 is only a few days away now... I've had quite a bit of "builder's burnout", but in March I finally started building again. I will have a table of all new things to display (including an 8-baseplate layout 😮)...
This is one of my smaller builds that I named the "Guppy".

Mare Tau Tona- The 'Sea of Gold'. Remains of an ancient beach on the equatorial plain of Omicron Eridani (40 Eridani A). Fourth planet from the prime-orbital sun in this trinary star system. Heavy deposits of exposed gold formations and dust are visible.
Recorded September 20, 2224. Transmitted by the 'Om-Ed LSO' (Omicron Eridani Light Sail Orbiter). The spacecraft was launched from Earth January 29, 2120 and arrived eighty-four years later in 2204. The images were recorded in 2207 and took seventeen years to reach Earth.
The area's name: 'Tau Tona' is in reference to an ancient gold mine on Earth.
As of date of last transmission, orbital patterns of the spacecraft have entered a 'chaos pattern' as a result of the inability to resolve the 'Three Body Problem' in reference to orbital dynamics.

During its 40th close pass by Jupiter, our Juno spacecraft saw Ganymede cast a large, dark spot on the planet on Feb. 25, 2022.
JunoCam captured this image from very close to Jupiter, making Ganymede’s shadow appear especially large. At the time the raw image was taken, the Juno spacecraft was about 44,000 miles (71,000 kilometers) above Jupiter’s cloud tops and 15 times closer to the planet than Ganymede.
An observer at Jupiter’s cloud tops within the oval shadow would experience a total eclipse of the Sun. Total eclipses are more common on Jupiter than Earth for several reasons: Jupiter has four major moons (Ganymede, Io, Callisto, and Europa) that often pass between Jupiter and the Sun, and since Jupiter’s moons orbit in a plane close to Jupiter’s orbital plane, the moon shadows are often cast upon the planet.
