    Inside High Bay 3 of the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the work platforms have been retracted from around the Artemis I Space Launch System on September 20, 2021. All ten levels of platforms were extended and retracted as part of an umbilical test. During the test, several umbilical arms on the mobile launcher were extended to connect to the SLS rocket. They swung away from the launch vehicle, just as they will on launch day. NASA and Jacobs teams will continue conducting tests inside the VAB before transporting the Orion spacecraft to the assembly building and stacking it atop the SLS, completing assembly of the rocket for the Artemis I mission.

    Haunting Photos Highlight The Ebola Crisis In Liberia
    Kieran Kesner is a 23-year-old photojournalist who spent eight days covering the the plight of those infected with Ebola in Liberia.

    His striking photographs capture the plight of the Liberian community, who can only hope and pray not to catch the devastating disease.

    During his stay Kesner also photographed the burial teams and the MSF doctors (Doctors without Borders).

    The current outbreak in West Africa is the largest and most severe outbreak of Ebola since the virus was first discovered in 1976.

    Since the first case was noted in March 2014, there have been more cases and deaths than previous outbreaks combined; the diseases has already taken over 3,000 lives.

    On August 27, 2014 Kesner boarded Delta airlines flight 2608 ready to begin his first international assignment.

    "After four layovers, I arrived at the airport in Liberia. The plane came to a rough landing as it skidded to a stop on the decaying runway.

    "Upon exiting passengers were met with an army of people rushing to take our temperature with thermometers shaped like guns aimed at our heads. I would soon come to realize these thermometers might as well be real guns pointed to our heads."

    After washing his hands with chlorine, Kesner proceeded through the cacophony of customs where his passport was quickly stamped and he was sent on his way.

    "Over the next week I would come face to face with Ebola; photographing the sick, dead and every stage of the virus in between. Realizing the severity of this epidemic that sets a country back after steadily making gains from the destruction caused by civil war from 1989-2003."

    You Floated My Battleship! The Superships That Carry Superloads
    When the weighty problem of transporting superloads around the world arises, a bulky breed of superships are ready to take up the challenge.

    But rather than standard cargo containers, these vessels are capable of floating unimaginable loads including full oil rigs, multiple nuclear-powered submarines and, in one epic voyage, 18 barges from China to the Netherlands.

    Currently, the Australian Navy are employing the services of Netherlands-based shipping company Dockwise's MV Blue Marlin, the largest cargo transport ship in the world.

    The ship is transporting the first of two aircraft carrier hulls from Spain to Melbourne.

    The Australian Landing Helicopter Dock (ALHD) Canberra is the first to commence the 12,000 nautical mile voyage around the Cape of Good Hope, estimated to be completed in 45 days after setting off on 20 August from Punta Langosteira, a new large port just south of La Coruna, northern Spain.

    Spanish company Navantia has completed construction of the ships from the keel to the flight deck, and now the hulls are being transported for completion by BAE Systems Australia. The second hull, the ALHD Adelaide, will be transported in early 2014.

    Blue Marlin is more than up to the task, being 712ft in length, larger than two football pitches, 138ft deep and able to carry 75,000 tonnes. That said, the ALHD Canberra is so large it overhangs the Blue Marlin deck by 180ft.

    Blue Marlin's load capability also meant it was the ship of choice for the U.S. Navy when they had to transport the stricken destroyer USS Cole back to the United States after the warship was damaged by an Al-Qaeda suicide bomber attack while anchored in the port of Aden, Yemen.

    The Blue Marlin is manned by a 24 crew and is powered by 17,000 horsep...

    Mini Olympians: Remote Control Cars Will Retrieve Games Equipment
    No, your eyes are not deceiving you, the London 2012 games will see small remote control cars retrieving javelins, discuses, hammers and shots back from the field to the throwing area.

    The 'Mini MINIs' are roughly a quarter scale of the full-sized car and will carry the athletic equipment situated inside, accessible through the adapted sunroof.

    Operated by staff especially trained for the duty, the electric cars are blue and feature the same Games livery, the same as the 160 full-size official fleet vehicles, composed of 160 BMW 1 Series ActiveE models and 40 MINI E's, used for duties including shuttling athletes and officials within the Olympic Park and surrounding Games sites.

    BMW was asked to specially develop the radio controlled cars to ferry equipment from the field of play to save valuable time during competition.

    "The MINI team was thrilled to be given this challenge to develop a vehicle with such an important and high profile role during the Olympic and Paralympic Games," commented Dr Juergen Hedrich, Managing Director of MINI Plant Oxford. "I know that everybody was inspired by the challenge and the knowledge that these models will be seen in action by millions of people around the world."

    The cars were designed and built to a specification agreed with LOCOG to ensure their role on the field of play is successful in saving time during competition. Each of the three Mini MINIs will cover around 6,000 metres per day in four-hour shifts across nine days of Olympic and nine days of Paralympic competition.

    The Mini MINIs will:

    1.Carry a load of up to 8kg; a single hammer, discus or shot or two javelins

    2.Be opera...

    Mini Olympians: Remote Control Cars Will Retrieve Games Equipment
    No, your eyes are not deceiving you, the London 2012 games will see small remote control cars retrieving javelins, discuses, hammers and shots back from the field to the throwing area.

    The 'Mini MINIs' are roughly a quarter scale of the full-sized car and will carry the athletic equipment situated inside, accessible through the adapted sunroof.

    Operated by staff especially trained for the duty, the electric cars are blue and feature the same Games livery, the same as the 160 full-size official fleet vehicles, composed of 160 BMW 1 Series ActiveE models and 40 MINI E's, used for duties including shuttling athletes and officials within the Olympic Park and surrounding Games sites.

    BMW was asked to specially develop the radio controlled cars to ferry equipment from the field of play to save valuable time during competition.

    "The MINI team was thrilled to be given this challenge to develop a vehicle with such an important and high profile role during the Olympic and Paralympic Games," commented Dr Juergen Hedrich, Managing Director of MINI Plant Oxford. "I know that everybody was inspired by the challenge and the knowledge that these models will be seen in action by millions of people around the world."

    The cars were designed and built to a specification agreed with LOCOG to ensure their role on the field of play is successful in saving time during competition. Each of the three Mini MINIs will cover around 6,000 metres per day in four-hour shifts across nine days of Olympic and nine days of Paralympic competition.

    The Mini MINIs will:

    1.Carry a load of up to 8kg; a single hammer, discus or shot or two javelins

    2.Be opera...

    Driver Transporting an Unattached Wheelie Bin on Top of His Car, Cannes, France - 20 May 2012
    While the glorious and the glamorous hit the red carpets to brave the flashing bulbs of the paparazzi for the 65th Cannes Film Festival, a couple of likely lads were leading a slightly less glitzy lifestyle: transporting a wheelie bin on top of their Peugeot saloon car at 30mph down the dual carriageway from Cannes to Grasse, keeping it held down on the roof by gripping onto it with their spare hands, without so much as a piece of rope or string in sight.
