FebRovery 2022, installment 11.
There seem to be a lot of motorbike-type rovers in my submissions this year. Here's another one, in my personal favourite Space Police colours, the first generation of that subtheme.
These are the first impressions from the space ship Mirage. coming soon January 2022.

In honor of Sputnik 1, 50 years later (on Oct. 4th), I present to you all a nice little gem of a book I got off of ebay about a year ago: Space Alphabet (1964) by Irene Zacks. Pictures by Peter P. Plasencia.
Oh, how we wish.
Interior Space Assets
Production.
Trying to control the world.
And the people of the world.
Through consumption.
As the world continues to move.
The commodities continue to change.
Caged within.
Human resource and automation.
Cultural resources as assets.
Within their commodity status.
Chained to exponential growth.
As described by the grid.
And the predetermined trajectory coordinates.
Of profit.

Mission: SPACE is a motion simulator thrill ride at Epcot. It simulates what an astronaut might experience aboard a spacecraft on a mission to Mars, from the higher g-force of blastoff to the speculative hypersleep.
The attraction opened to the public in a "soft opening" mode in June 2003, and celebrated its grand opening on October 9 with a ceremony attended by Disney CEO Michael Eisner, HP CEO Carly Fiorina and NASA Administrator Sean O'Keefe, as well as several NASA astronauts from its many phases of human space exploration (Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, the space shuttle program and two crew members aboard the International Space Station).
The attraction was built on the former site of Horizons, a dark ride that offered optimistic visions of what life might be like in the future. Horizons closed permanently in 1999 after a few years of sporadic operation; construction began on Mission: SPACE shortly thereafter. Industry estimates put the cost of developing the new attraction at US$100 million. The pavilion, like others at Epcot, features a VIP lounge for HP employees called The Red Planet Room.
This is my playground: The northernmost section of the Black Hills. Photographed at 6,647 ft, you can see many lush hilltops including the dominant Crow Peak far off on right side just before the evergreens taper off into plains. What you don't see in the photo are the numerous ghost towns, abandoned mining camps, hidden fishing ponds, caves, secret camping spots, and endless opportunities for outdoor adventures. Its crazy to think of all of the life events, even just for me, that have taken place within the parameters of this frame. I know, I know, sometimes I think too much. But hey, when you sit in the dark shooting nights of startrails as everyone else sleeps quietly below, its pretty easy to get lost in space and time.

Stop! Space tractors aren't allowed in the corridors!
In my last two pounds of black L-go from the flea market were these beautiful "Police" signs, so I've build a bit of scene around them.
I even tried to build a white, streamlined version of the Lanz, but a tractor and streamline are on opposite ends of the design spectrum. It just looks ridiculous in white with red stripes.
Toy Project Day 768
We had to give up the kids playroom so I can have my own craft room. Gee, I din't realize I had that much yarn until i gathered them all together yesterday.
Anyway, i love my new breathing space... I hope this inspires you to create your own craft room :)
I like the old TV series space 1999 (Mondbasis Alpha 1). 'Have my own creation of collectible minifigures. Only original LEGO parts.

This is the real thing (not a model), the original, full size in a new facility that they've built at Kennedy Space Center in honor of the Shuttle Program. You first watch a movie of its history, the doors open... and there it is, indoors, all lit up and suspended in air in front of you at a 43.21 degree angle. Amazing closeup experience!
Atlantis was the fourth operational (and the next-to-the-last) Space Shuttle to be constructed by the Rockwell International Co. in Southern California, and it was delivered to the Kennedy Space Center in eastern Florida in April 1985. Atlantis was named after RV Atlantis, a two-masted sailing ship that operated as the primary research vessel for the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution from 1930 to 1966.
The last mission of Atlantis was the last flight of the Shuttle program. This final flight, authorized in October 2010, brought additional supplies to the International Space Station and took advantage of the processing performed for the Launch on Need mission, which would only have been flown in the event that Endeavour's crew required rescue. Atlantis launched successfully for the final time on July 8th, 2011 at 16:29 UTC, landing at the John F. Kennedy Space Center on July 21st, 2011 at 09:57 UTC. By the end of its final mission, Atlantis had orbited the Earth 4,848 times, traveling nearly 126,000,000 miles in space or more than 525 times the distance from the Earth to the Moon.
At Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex, Space Shuttle Atlantis is the new $100 million home of the priceless, historic spacecraft that tells the incredible story of NASA’s 30-year Space Shuttle Program. The 90,000 square-foot Space Shuttle Atlantis attraction is the marquee element of the Visitor Complex’s 10-year master plan. The Visitor Complex displays Atlantis suspended with its payload bay doors opened (above) such that it appears to be back in orbit around the Earth. A multi-story digital projection of Earth rotates behind the orbiter in a 64,000-square-foot indoor facility. Ground breaking of the facility occurred in 2012. The exhibit opened on June 29th, 2013.
[Interesting note: Atlantis is suspended in its new facility with cargo bay doors open at a 43.21 degree angle. Get it? 4-3-2-1 Liftoff!]

Space Vikings!
This ship steals most of its plunder by latching on to other vessels and cutting open their hulls, allowing the pirates to loot the victims without further conflict.
Built for the contest in the Space Pirate group, and inspired by the ships of Vinn.
Space is at a premium on any cargo deck, and as a result the interstellar merchant marine has commissioned various collapsible spacecraft designs. The Exo-Tug remains the only commercially viable outcome, and it's a common sight on cargo haulers and space stations. It folds into a 3x3 meter cube and is operated by a fully-suited crewperson to avoid the need for life support.
For more photos, see the full set.
My motley crew of space pirates for the contest over on the LCN. I thought these all turned out pretty good and check out each of the individual photos for descriptions. Unfortunately, my diorama for the contest won't be completed in time but I'm very, very excited for y'all to see it, just think floating rocks meets treasure planet :D

I'm in the process of rebooting my comic, Space Repair Garage, and I'm doing some character art to warm up.
Jax Redbird may be new around the garage, but he's the best junker around, and never fails to find the parts the crew needs. He's happy flying his missions solo, but Chives and Tex are constantly trying to make him a team player. No thanks!
If you've enjoyed my art, builds, and comics in the past, check out my LEGO World Builder world where I'm campaigning to get Space Repair Garage to be made as an official LEGO theme!
My son is completely awed by space, planets and stars and his want to know everything has relit my own sometimes almost childish fascination and love of star and planet gazing,
'Space' has come from this enjoyment - To offer the viewer a place to imagine the billion life cycle journey of our own sun... all it has witnessed and all it has created....
The Sun is the star at the center of the Solar System. It is a nearly perfect sphere of hot plasma, with internal convective motion that generates a magnetic field via a dynamo process. It is by far the most important source of energy for life on Earth. Its diameter is about 109 times that of Earth, and its mass is about 330,000 times that of Earth, accounting for about 99.86% of the total mass of the Solar System. About three quarters of the Sun's mass consists of hydrogen (~73%); the rest is mostly helium (~25%), with much smaller quantities of heavier elements, including oxygen, carbon, neon, and iron.[17]
The Sun is a G-type main-sequence star (G2V) based on its spectral class. As such, it is informally referred to as a yellow dwarf. It formed approximately 4.6 billion years ago from the gravitational collapse of matter within a region of a large molecular cloud. Most of this matter gathered in the center, whereas the rest flattened into an orbiting disk that became the Solar System. The central mass became so hot and dense that it eventually initiated nuclear fusion in its core. It is thought that almost all stars form by this process.
The Sun is roughly middle-aged; it has not changed dramatically for more than four billion years, and will remain fairly stable for more than another five billion years. After hydrogen fusion in its core has diminished to the point at which it is no longer in hydrostatic equilibrium, the core of the Sun will experience a marked increase in density and temperature while its outer layers expand to eventually become a red giant. It is calculated that the Sun will become sufficiently large to engulf the current orbits of Mercury, Venus, and probably Earth.
The enormous effect of the Sun on Earth has been recognized since prehistoric times, and the Sun has been regarded by some cultures as a deity. The synodic rotation of Earth and its orbit around the Sun are the basis of the solar calendar, which is the predominant calendar in use today.
Attention to detail front and back with Brass fixings allowing for a flush finish to the wall. Desires Creates Memories has also received fixings top and bottom to allow the owner of this work to have there own preference of hanging this piece.
Emma provides 2 copies of the 'about' with all her pieces, attached to the back in a sleeve... She also sign's her work in a hidden way providing the work with a little something special for the owner of the work to personally enjoy.
