Juno Spacecraft will carry Legos
NASA’s Jupiter-bound Juno spacecraft will carry the 1.5-inch likeness of Galileo Galilei, the Roman god Jupiter and his wife Juno to Jupiter when the spacecraft launches this Friday, Aug. 5. The inclusion of the three mini-statues, or figurines, is part of a joint outreach and educational program developed as part of the partnership between NASA and the LEGO Group to inspire children to explore science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
The launch period for Juno opens Aug. 5 and extends through Aug. 26. For an Aug. 5 liftoff, the launch window opens at 8:34 a.m. PDT (11:34 a.m. EDT) and remains open through 9:43 a.m. PDT (12:43 p.m. EDT). The spacecraft is expected to arrive at Jupiter in 2016. The mission will investigate the gas giant’s origins, structure, atmosphere and magnetosphere. Juno’s color camera will provide close-up images of Jupiter, including the first detailed glimpse of the planet’s poles.

Mechanical elephant made from reclaimed wood and steel
the great elephant1Renewing the memories of the Sultan’s Elephant that no longer exists, France brings its replica to the world. The imitation of the elephant was built as a part of the Machines of the Isle of Nantes, an artistic, tourist and cultural project based in Nantes, France. The main objective of the project is to portray the city as a creative place of dream and fantasy.
