Technician on top of pole fixing power outage during a snow storm: Think hot chocolate at Tim's hot chocolate at Tim's hot chocolate at Tim's. Nope it's still F***ing cold.
Also hair stylist, though she refused to wash her fur while I was taking photos. She was interested by the nail varnish because she isn’t usually allowed close to it & (obviously) I was offering a bribe just out of the shot! Happy Caturday.
Dane, HVAC technician, he was pretty tickled to be asked to pose. He said aside from cellphone shots he took there were no pictures of him. When he returned the following week to finish the job he said he used this for his social media profile pic & got 60 likes for it. He was so happy he posed for me again; Murrysville, PA - February 2026
This is Axel. One of our technicians was leaving the building late at night a couple weeks ago and caught a glimpse of a kitten in a big drainage pipe near the parking lot of our practice. She set out a Have-A-Heart trap and for 2 days and 2 nights through freezing temperatures, rain, frost, and wind, the trap remained empty. On the third morning, there was Axel, huddled up in the back of the trap.
I can't tell you how much he reminds me of Riceball/Royalty (for Riceball/Royalty's story you can go to this link www.flickr.com/photos/77654185@N07/25975226737/in/photoli...). When you reach for him, he cowers away as if he expects to be hurt but the second you make contact, he starts purring and melts into you. He LOVES laps and head rubs and if you stop petting him too soon, he gently taps you to remind you he is still there, waiting for more. Riceball was just the same. He also had to be reminded daily how much he loved laps and being petted.
We estimate Axel is about 5 months old and is now neutered, vaccinated and ready to be adopted.
Thanks to my mom, Bennilover, and Flickr Friends Regina, Chickpea and Bigbird, it looks like an informal group is being started based on themes I wanted to use while taking pictures in Old San Juan, Puerto Rico. We chose "Words" for this week's theme. The "words" in my photo this week are Axel's contact information on an old business card for our practice. If you would like to join our informal group, feel free to post pictures of "Words" this week or "On the ground" - last week's theme.
The Tsu-ka are known for not having the best brains, but when it comes down to mechanics, they can make a starship out of practically anything

Technicians recording aviator Amy Johnson after her record breaking London to Australia flight, Sydney, 1930, by Sam Hood, vintage glass negative, State Library of New South Wales, ON 204/Box 89/17 collection.sl.nsw.gov.au/record/YezVel79/qXryLMQE2mLrJ
Technicians at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, have completed applying thermal protection system material to the launch vehicle stage adapter (LVSA) of NASA’s SLS (Space Launch System) rocket for Artemis III, which will land astronauts on the Moon to advance long-term lunar exploration and scientific discovery and inspire the Artemis Generation. The LVSA is a cone-shaped element connecting the mega rocket’s core stage to its interim cryogenic propulsion stage (ICPS), partially enclosing it and protecting its avionics and electrical systems from the extreme pressures, sounds, and temperatures during launch and flight.
Teams at Marshall began applying the thermal protection system material earlier this spring. Unlike other parts of the SLS rocket, the thermal protection system material for the LVSA is applied entirely by hand using a spray gun. During application, the technicians use a thin measuring rod to gauge the proper thickness. Once the thermal protection system has cured, certain areas are sanded down to meet parameters. The entire process takes several months.
The LVSA is fully manufactured at Marshall by NASA, lead contractor Teledyne Brown Engineering, and the Jacobs Space Exploration Group’s ESSCA contract. The LVSA for Artemis III is the last of its kind as future SLS rockets will transition to its next, more powerful Block 1B configuration beginning with Artemis IV.
NASA is working to land the first woman and first person of color on the Moon under Artemis. SLS is part of NASA’s backbone for deep space exploration, along with the Orion spacecraft, advanced spacesuits and rovers, the Gateway in orbit around the Moon, and commercial human landing systems. SLS is the only rocket that can send Orion, astronauts, and supplies to the Moon in a single mission.

Name: Dexter
Species: Fe-Matoran
Occupation: Technician/Supporter of Toa Fieldus
Titles: Proto-Warrior, Dex, Rando
Alignment: Good
Personality: He is stubborn and tries his best, but is naïve and ignorant to some of the Toa’s situations in life
Element: Iron
Side Powers: Manipulation of other metals
Kanohi: None
Weapons: Twin Dagger Blasters, Cyber Sword/Shield, Shotgun, Assault Rifle, Extendable Limbs, Super Strength, Intelligence
Backstory: When Dexter was young, he always admired the Toa, and always wanted to be just like them. They were courageous, cunning, powerful, and heroic. Dexter wanted a life like that, where he could save people and live a life of nobility. He worked on this and created the Proto-Suit MK I. With this suit, he helped the Toa on many adventures, and even became somewhat of a member of the team, unofficially of course. After many years of grueling fighting and work, his MK I suit was almost no functioning and did not have much life left to give. He took this opportunity to build his grand creation, the Proto-Suit MK II, dubbed “Rando”, after the Ex-Toa of Artillery. This new suit has been a very great ally in the Toa’s forces, and has helped win countless battles, and hopefully will soon lead to the victory for the Toa team.
In the water at thre Aerospace Museum of the Colombian Aerospace Force in Tocancipá, Colombia, is Junkers W 34 FAC 407. The first W-34s arrived in Colombia in 1929 through the Colombian-German Air Transport Company (SCADTA) with the aim of expanding its fleet and improving service. Following the conflict with Peru in 1932, the national government ordered the transfer of seven aircraft to the military aviation system, where they operated under the numbers 401 to 407 on passenger, cargo, mail, evacuation, relay, liaison, and reconnaissance missions, for which they required the adaptation of wheeled or float-mounted landing gear. At the end of the conflict, the W-34s were assigned to the Tres Esquinas Air Base in Caquetá and the Palanquero Air Base in Puerto Salgar.
The first fatal accident involving these aircraft occurred on July 28, 1935, when Junkers 406, commanded by Lieutenant Germán Olano, Director General of Aviation, crashed in Retiro, Huila, on a flight between Palanquero and Tres Esquinas, killing all occupants. On February 19, 1940, Junkers 401, commanded by Captain Enrique Concha, made the historic nonstop Bogotá-Lima goodwill flight, which lasted 10:40 hours. The mission was carried out to correspond with the Lima-Bogotá flight of Peruvian commander Armando Revoredo in December 1935.
At the end of 1940, the military aviation assigned three of these aircraft to the Military Geographic and Cadastral Institute (IGMI) to assist with cartographic surveying efforts. On February 5, 1941, a Junkers 401, commanded by Captain Carlos Cancino and Technician Marco F. Cifuentes, crashed near Guaduas, killing its crew. These aircraft provided extensive service to the Colombian Air Force until 1952. Currently, one aircraft, the FAC 407, is on display in the aeronautical park of the Colombian Air Force Aerospace Museum, being preserved by the Military Air Transport Command (CATAM).
Dr. Hibbert reviews the X-ray taken of Homer Simpson’s head. He has to tell Homer that he can’t let those donuts go to his head!
Being an X-ray technician, or as it may also be referred to as a Radiologic Technologist, can be both challenging and rewarding work. In the field of medical imaging, X-rays, along with CT scans, MRIs, and other non-invasive tests can offer radiologists and physicians important health details that can assess a patient’s health without surgery. This field not only requires the basics of biology, chemistry, and physics, but also human anatomy, physiology, and a little psychology. Yes, knowing how to position a patient in the proper ‘pose’ is part of the job. Knowing how to set the X-ray machine and adjust for proper exposure is also required. Personal safety is also necessary as the technician must also safeguard himself or herself from the harmful rays emitted over time. That is why they must scan themselves to alert to possible over-exposure to X-rays.

Search and Rescue Technicians: That Others May Live
The Canadian Armed Forces have approximately 140 search and rescue technicians (SAR techs). They are highly trained specialists who provide advanced pre-hospital medical care and rescue for aviators, mariners and others in distress in remote or hard-to-reach areas. These men and women are trained to a primary-care paramedic national standard with additional advanced skills.
SAR techs are land and sea survival experts who specialize in rescue techniques, including Arctic rescue, parachuting, diving, mountain climbing and helicopter rescue.

this person makes a living from repairing car airconditioning and other electrical issues with your car. in his shop are surplus spare parts needed to put your car airconditioning and electrical components back to order. i had mine fixed several years ago and still working for less than half the price. not bad!
Technicians at the Astrotech Space Operations Facility near NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida install the two-panel solar array on Thursday, July 17, 2025, that will help power the agency’s IMAP (Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe) observatory on its upcoming journey one million miles away from Earth. Each panel of the solar array, located on the top of IMAP, consists of 16 strings of solar cells, with 36 cells per string, and combined will convert sunlight into 500 watts of power, more than enough for the observatory, which as a system uses less power than five 100-watt incandescent light bulbs.

Members of some unknown alien race, tall and bipedal creatures. They are thought to be descendants of frog-like amphibian animals, as their anatomy gives hints on that.
In case you are wondering how their heads are built, I should say that they are constructed of those UFO saucer parts.
Bringing this album to a close with my favorite photo of what has so far been my favorite sports photography day ever.
I don't usually run the same theme this many photos in a row, so thanks for putting up with it. ;)
Mateo Hernandez, Navigation Systems Technician, Jupiter Yards
Personal Log:
My short trip to Mars-Orbit is over and I am once again on transport to Jupiter Yards. This time, however, I am accompanied by several nav systems, tested and ready for installation. I had a wonderful time on the construction platform watching the automated arms piece together my engineering jigsaw puzzle.
Our Captain for this planet-hop is interested in my photography. We talked about some of the shots I took on the trip to Mars and she informed me that there would be two cargo barges unloading on the summit platform as we were passing. She helped me line up the shot and I don\'t think I could have asked for better lighting...
This has to be my favorite render so far. The lighting is clearly inspired by the wonderful digital artist Paul Pepera at www.artstation.com/paulpepera . A big thank you goes to mecabricks for the tips for fog and dispersion! Somehow, everything worked out with this build. I wasn't really sure how to make an obviously heavier platform than the previous one while still maintaining the shape and structure but I think this works. I\'ve been holding off on uploading another shot of just the little accompanying ships but now I think I have enough new ones to warrant it.
She's nearly unmatched in her ability to create and in intelligence.
Creator of the most resilient and mysterious mechanical objects in the multiverse, hardly anybody knows about her existence.
I've been working on her for quite a while. She's finally to a point where I consider her finished. I wanted a more stylized and recognizeable character. Although she doesn't have the best of those qualities, I'm pleased with her nonetheless.
