SpaceEngine - A free space simulation program that lets you explore the universe in three dimensions, from planet Earth to the most distant galaxies. Areas of the known universe are represented using actual astronomical data, while regions uncharted by astronomy are generated procedurally. Millions of galaxies, trillions of stars, countless planets - all available for exploration. You can land any planet, moon or asteroid and watch alien landscapes and celestial phenomena. You can even pilot starships and atmospheric shuttles.
The John F. Kennedy Space Center (KSC, originally known as the NASA Launch Operations Center) is one of ten National Aeronautics and Space Administration field centers. Since December 1968, KSC has been NASA's primary launch center of human spaceflight. Launch operations for the Apollo, Skylab and Space Shuttle programs were carried out from Kennedy Space Center Launch Complex 39 and managed by KSC. Located on the east coast of Florida, KSC is adjacent to Cape Canaveral Air Force Station (CCAFS). The management of the two entities work very closely together, share resources, and even own facilities on each other's property.
Though the first Apollo flights and all Project Mercury and Project Gemini flights took off from CCAFS, the launches were managed by KSC and its previous organization, the Launch Operations Directorate. Starting with the fourth Gemini mission, the NASA launch control center in Florida (Mercury Control Center, later the Launch Control Center) began handing off control of the vehicle to the Mission Control Center in Houston, shortly after liftoff; in prior missions it held control throughout the entire mission.
Additionally, the center manages launch of robotic and commercial crew missions and researches food production and In-Situ Resource Utilization for off-Earth exploration. Since 2010, the center has worked to become a multi-user spaceport through industry partnerships, even adding a new launch pad (LC-39C) in 2015.
There are about 700 facilities and buildings grouped across the center's 144,000 acres (580 km2). Among the unique facilities at KSC are the 525-foot (160 m) tall Vehicle Assembly Building for stacking NASA's largest rockets, the Launch Control Center, which conducts space launches at KSC, the Operations and Checkout Building, which houses the astronauts dormitories and suit-up area, a Space Station factory, and a 3-mile (4.8 km) long Shuttle Landing Facility. There is also a Visitor Complex open to the public on site.

Swinging in space, space for more riders, looking out into the great beyond. Colorful wonderful space at the beach on a holiday weekend. Amazing.

Display made for the french convention "Brick à Dole" 2017. The V2 with a new part "Starship Troopers" was presented to the french convention "Let\'s Go" 2018 in Schiltigheim.
This MOC is a collaborative diorama created with my friend Sweetsha & N3rik.
On this diorama we find the new theme Space Lego but also the Classic Space Lego.
It is intentionally ultra colored, it gives a side very fun :)
There are also many references to the great films of SF, pop culture and it\'s full of humor.
Obviously nothing will happen as planned, Space is going to shit. ^^
Space X launches a Falcon 9 from Vandenberg SFB, California from SLC-4. A batch of 49 satellites for the Starlink mega-constellation communication system.
This launch carries D-Orbit’s ION SCV009 Eclectic Elena as a rideshare payload.
a weather balloon i sent up with two cameras, gps, and a altometer for around 100. most of the parts were garbage or second hand stuff from thrift stores
Though the Space Jockey plays a part in this summer's Prometheus, Bob Burns says it is completely CG; not formed from this original set piece from Alien. (Photo by Marcy Mahoney)

As with many of the ships designed by Llwyngwril Space Systems, the Wasp did suffer from a few practical draw backs. The first was that the cockpit was several metres above the ground and pilots had to use ladders or special lifts to get in and out.
The colour scheme of the Wasp was chosen when it operated over the famous "Checkered Sea" on the planet Foss IV. It cost so much to paint the ships that they then stayed in these colours for the rest of their service lives, despite being incredibly easy to spot and shoot down. Checkered water from the seas of Foss IV is now used as the main ingredient in its renowned tartan paint factory.

The Space Needle is an observation tower in Seattle, Washington, a landmark of the Pacific Northwest, and a symbol of Seattle. It was built in the Seattle Center for the 1962 World's Fair, which drew over 2.3 million visitors, when nearly 20,000 people a day used its elevators. [Source: Wikipedia]

ALE-1, the Automatic Law Enforcer, is called in to assist or replace Space Police officers in areas or situations deemed too risky. It features highly maneuverable bills legs, four anti-aircraft cannons, personnel incapacitator on the bottom left of the rig and impact displacor on the right. Underneath the protective canopy in the surveillance array with police lights on the bar under that.
I made this with pieces only available when space police 1 came out :)

As the Shuttle Program comes to an end I reflect on the first time I saw the very first Space Shuttle Columbia that landed at the El Paso International Airport during the '80's during a lay over. There was bad weather in Florida during it's flight so they were forced to land in El Paso.
What shall we use to fill the empty spaces,
Where we used to talk?
How shall I fill the final places?
How shall I complete the wall?

Taken from over 200 miles to the south in Fort Lauderdale! I used my Canon 70-200 f2.8 with a Canon 2x Multiplier handheld @ f5.6 and ISO 800
Really a variant that Joachim Garraud used.
