"Blueprint of Spacecraft, giving by the Origaliens. We are told that they are resting now, recharging their battery. "
Happy weekend everyone ;-))
I folded this 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".
"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.

Yes, of course, it's a Martian Spacecraft. We're being invaded again ;)
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!
Taken 21 July 2022 at the Wynn Nature Center, Homer, Alaska.
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.

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 !!
This enhanced-color image from NASA’s Juno spacecraft captures the striking cloud bands of Jupiter’s southern latitudes. Jupiter is not only the largest planet in the solar system, it also rotates at the fastest rate, completing a full day in just 10 hours. This rapid spinning creates strong jet streams, separating Jupiter’s clouds into bright zones and dark belts that wrap around the planet.
Citizen scientist David Marriott created this image with data from the JunoCam instrument. The original image was taken on April 10, 2020, at 7:35 a.m. PDT (10:35 a.m. EDT) as the Juno spacecraft performed its 26th close flyby of the planet. At the time the image was taken, Juno was about 40,000 miles (64,000 kilometers) from the planet’s cloud tops at a latitude of about 58 degrees south.

In this rare image taken on 19 July, the wide-angle camera on the international Cassini spacecraft has captured Saturn’s rings and our planet Earth and Moon in the same frame.
The dark side of Saturn, its bright limb, the main rings, the F ring, and the G and E rings are clearly seen; the limb of Saturn and the F ring are overexposed. The ‘breaks’ in the brightness of Saturn’s limb are due to the shadows of the rings on the globe of Saturn, preventing sunlight from shining through the atmosphere in those regions. The E and G rings have been brightened for better visibility.
Earth, 1.44 billion km away in this image, appears as a blue dot at centre right; the Moon can be seen as a fainter protrusion off its right side. The other bright dots nearby are stars.
NASA Goddard Space Flight Center enables NASA’s mission through four scientific endeavors: Earth Science, Heliophysics, Solar System Exploration, and Astrophysics. Goddard plays a leading role in NASA’s accomplishments by contributing compelling scientific knowledge to advance the Agency’s mission.

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".
An spacecraft from the pioneering days of space exploration, when space was big...
*************************************
This quickly built little ship came about because of Tamm S.'s recent and beautiful hovercraft reminded me that I had these Christmas baubles. He also showed me how to attach them using a jumper plate, rather than the Technic pins and axles that I'd previously used. I managed to sandwich the attachment point on the bauble between two jumper plates and attach them to headlight bricks. These then attached to a 2x3 plate.
As you all know and see my photographing skills are mwoa, so Legonardo Davidy offered me to do a new( and of course a better :D) shot of the fighter which I had sent to him through the STG round 5 " the Neophyters" . Needless to say that it looks way better then my pictures :) Enjoy it and a big shout out to Legonardo Davidy for doing this.
Again I am suprised by the people of the online Legocommunity, nothing seems to much to do for a fellow enthusiast :D, you all rock guys & dolls :)
Cheers Henry

Thanks!!!
Recently found photograph.
Yuri Gagarin was the first man in space.
His spacecraft was called Vostok.
Until today Soviets have kept this part of his journey in secret.
It's impossible to know which nationality the Space Ape was, so
of course it was best to be silent about this.
NOW IT*S TIME FOR WORLD TO KNOW!
