The Orion boilerplate test vehicle is secured in the well deck of the USS San Diego at the U.S. Naval Base San Diego in California. Orion was transported about 100 miles offshore for an underway recovery test. NASA and the U.S. Navy conducted tests to prepare for recovery of the Orion crew module, forward bay cover and parachutes on its return from a deep space mission. The underway recovery test will allow the teams to demonstrate and evaluate the recovery processes, procedures, hardware and personnel in open waters. During the testing, the tether lines were unable to support the tension caused by crew module motion that was driven by wave turbulence in the well deck of the ship. NASA and the U.S. Navy are reviewing the testing data collected to evaluate the next steps. The Ground Systems Development and Operations Program conducted the underway recovery tests. Orion is the exploration spacecraft designed to carry astronauts to destinations not yet explored by humans, including an asteroid and Mars. It will have emergency abort capability, sustain the crew during space travel and provide safe re-entry from deep space return velocities. The first unpiloted test flight of the Orion is scheduled to launch in 2014 atop a Delta IV rocket and in 2017 on NASA’s Space Launch System rocket. For more information, visit www.nasa.gov/orion.

Today I made some testshots with my new selfmade Pinhole camera, the PinOli 4X5. Just to test that it is working and has no light leaks and to test some exposuretimes.
I used 135 film attached to the cassettes with sticky tape to test it.

Some preliminary conclusions after these tests about “best performance setting”
My objective was to find the best performance setting for outdoors for my camera.
NOTE: to convert RAF files to JPG I got much sharper results, as well as more noise, using either Lightroom 4 or TheraPee 4 (an open and free software). Setting “extreme sharpness” in the provided software also helps.
My camera shows orbs and in RAW is not as sharp as many other people X10s that show to be amazing out of the box (I am thinking to send it to the service by the way).
Sharpness, it was my main concern and with my camera got the best results using: EXR HD mode but also P mode worked ok, M size, DR 100 and speed over 1/100 if possible. Neither RAW mode nor Large size did achieve the degree of sharpness reached by this setting.
I shoot with IS in mode 2 when hand holding the camera, but I turn it OFF if using a tripod.
To avoid blowing up the highlights I set: EV -0,3, highlights low and Astia film setting.
To avoid “orbs” just keep apart from maximum aperture settings in takes with strong lights over a dark background.
I like to shoot at ISO 100 if possible, going up, even at just ISO 200, show differences. Anyway in very low light I go until ISO 800 in AUTO mode.
I like Astia film setting, colors are a little warmer but balanced, contrast and saturation are not exaggerated. Please consider that RAW mode is not available in EXR mode and/or M size and I need them.
No particular advises over AF modes, they worked perfectly, even in low light.
Shoot lower than 1/800 unless mandatory. I am not convinced about this point, but for sure it is better to go 1/600 at ISO 100 than 1/1200 at ISO 200 (shooting still objects as buildings). It means to avoid using AUTO ISO mode.
Freeze blotter test in the Seed Health Laboratory at CIMMYT. To detect specific fungi, seed is incubated in ideal fungal growing conditions. Technicians look for distinctive growths of fungal species of quarantine concern. The seed is briefly frozen before incubation to prevent germination.

I realised i'd not taken any pictures at all with my 18-35, so had to do a test at 18mm, that's it, nothing new to see here.
Hitech 0.6 Grad ND SE
This antibody testing (involving a blood sample) took place in the parking lot of the YMCA at Vermont Avenue and Century Boulevard. The site was sponsored by Los Angeles City Councilman Marqueece Harris-Dawson.
The testing site was very well organized, with minimum delays. Each registrant had a QR-code on their paperwork; the code was scanned as their car came through the procession and their number was written on their windshield. Then each testee had their body temperature taken via infrared scan. A small video screen on a stand was positioned by the driver's side window so that a remote doctor could interact with each testee. At the next station, a pinprick was used to draw a tiny blood sample to be placed into a carrier, which was then bagged up and tagged with the testee's ID information. Finally, each car was given an impressive bountiful free bag of vegetables (corn, potatoes, celery, romaine lettuce, carrots, zucchini, and cucumbers) plus a couple of snack pack Doritos. At the last stop, a volunteer cleaned off the car windshield.
The total time on-site was under 15 minutes.
The test results were delivered the next morning by text-message, email, and a phone call.
Nice job, Marqueece !!
