The final launch of Space Shuttle Endeavor STS-134 carried a LEGO bricks payload that would later be assembled by astronauts on the ISS to demonstrate differences in how LEGOs react in zero gravity compared to LEGOs on Earth. Several of the educational LEGO sets flew on board the International Space Station (ISS), where they were assembled by astronauts on-orbit along with children and student groups across the country. The LEGO Group released NASA-inspired products in their LEGO CITY line and, together with NASA, developed innovative educational STEM-related activities and products. The LEGO Group donated its life-sized Spirit/Opportunity rover model made of LEGO bricks to the Kennedy Space Center’s Visitors Center, where it remains on view to the public today. Both kits were part of a licensed “Discovery Kids” theme, which sought to connect students with real rather than science-fiction space missions. The LEGO Group also produced a larger, more complex model of Spirit/Opportunity. ![]() These mini-characters and the mini-DVD components were made from materials able to withstand the harsh Martian environment.īased on the design information provided by NASA and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory/Caltech, the LEGO Group released the “LEGO Mars Exploration Rover” kit, which included replicas of the 2001 Mars Odyssey orbiter, one of the Mars Exploration Rovers, and the Delta II rocket and launch tower that carried both to Mars. Through the Planetary Society’s “Red Rover Goes to Mars” outreach effort, astrobot mini-characters named Biff Starling (on board Spirit) and Sandy Moondust (on board Opportunity) blogged about their journey to Mars during the initial stages of the mission. ![]() Each rover included construction bricks and an image of an “astrobot” (astronaut robot) brick character affixed to the spacecraft, as well as a CD with a digital list of names from the “Send Your Name to Mars” contest. Soon after the Mars rovers got their names, NASA launched Spirit and Opportunity from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. The LEGO Group constructed a life-size model of the NASA Mars Exploration Rover, displayed at several museums, conferences, and public events to promote the “Name the Rovers” competition and the Mars mission. Each DVD carried the names of about 4 million people to two different locations on Mars that, over the course of the rovers’ years-long journeys, would each reveal signs of ancient water, a key ingredient for life as we know it. The LEGO Group also helped NASA to provide an opportunity to “Send Your Name to Mars” on a mini-DVD on board each of the twin rovers. ![]() NASA selected the names “Spirit” and “Opportunity” through a student essay contest that drew nearly 10,000 entries. ![]() The LEGO Group teamed with the Planetary Society and NASA’s Mars Public Engagement Program to execute a NASA contest to name the Mars Exploration Rovers. In addition to lesson plans and teacher guides, the series features weekly videos that introduce the LEGO Space Team and their NASA Artemis I team counterparts, helping students better understand STEM space careers and the knowledge and skills that go into completing successful space missions. Through open-ended lessons, students will get hands-on experience and solve problems similar to those the Artemis I team members face as they build toward launch. Four LEGO minfigures will also fly aboard Orion, packaged along with other mementos selected by the agency to fly on Artemis I, to further connect and engage kids with the educational series and highlight NASA careers. In addition to providing inspiration for several NASA-themed sets over the past several years, NASA has recently partnered with LEGO Education to engage with thousands of educators and students through “Build to Launch,” 10-week digital learning series exploring the technology, STEM concepts and careers behind the Artemis I mission to the Moon. NASA and the LEGO Group have a long history of collaboration on projects that engage children and adults alike to encourage interest in STEM fields and space exploration.

"Albeit disorganized and fantastical, the Complaint's allegations are extraordinarily serious and, if accepted as true by large numbers of people, are the stuff of which violent insurrections are made," the judge said. In Wednesday's order, the judge said the lawyers sowed doubt over President Joe Biden's victory with no evidence. voters, alleging that Dominion, Facebook, its founder Mark Zuckerberg, his wife Priscilla Chan and elected officials in four states conspired to steal the election - and asking for $160 billion in damages.

The Nectar Imperial is for the person you know that is a bit of a sweet drink fan.Īt Home: Moët is an anytime drink – parties, outings, the races – and even at home with friends. Party Potential: Forget providing this for everyone at say, a big birthday bash – Demi-Sec is too sweet of a drink – think of it as you would a Moscato. This is small dinner party fare, or a get together with girlfriends, or if you want to splash out night club fare.īYO – take a bottle for small gatherings on the balcony as a kick-off before a big night.Īs a Gift: As with the Brut: Moët is the most common, safe option champagne you can buy for anyone who knows something or nothing about champagne.

Taste: The sugary additions to Nectar Imperial really drive home a unique flavour – with a fresh sweet introduction that has elements of ripe stone fruit, soft lemon, fresh cherries and musk – which mellows out to more developed, caramelised flavours like meringue, with only a touch of bread elements from the fermentation yeasts coming through to make the finish taste a little like bruised fruit.Īpple pie and cinnamon influences can also be found. Smell: The sugary sweetness of the Demi-Sec is captured with deep notes of crème brulee, accentuated with hints of fresh bread and ripe berries. Look: Soft Honeyed gold, with medium sized bubbles in a strong fizz.

They can also (with the right mixers) be shaped into some great cocktails – however the cost is somewhat prohibitive. ![]() Using a fair amount of dosage (sugar content) – up to 5 times more than your typical “Brut” fashioned drinks – demi sec is for those who enjoy a more ripe and fruity expression in their drinks. While the NV Brut Imperial is an exercise in bulk champagne production – the Demi Sec Nectar Imperial is one of the more “uncommon” blends from Moet.

The camera also has Aspect Markers for different video aspect ratios, so during the editing processing, it’s easier to make content look consistent.Īfter shooting still images and video, I found it easier to either connect my camera to my MacBook Pro using a USB-C to USB-C cable, or establish a wireless connection with my Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max to transfer, view, edit, store, and share the content. And to make content creation possibilities even more versatile, the camera supports UVC and UAC, specs which make live-streaming and remote camera control possible. You can shoot 4K video at up to 60 fps (oversampled from 6K), or drop down to 1080p at up to 180 fps.

When out and about shooting photos or video, I loved how quickly the autofocus sensors locked in on faces, eyes even animals. I truly appreciated how the Canon EOS R8 gives so many easily accessible setting and configuration choices. Plus, it supports both the sRGB and Adobe RGB color spaces. The Canon EOS R8 offers plenty of shooting options, with ISO support between 100 and 102,400 (expandable up to 204,800-although the higher you go, the more noise you can expect). Rich For ForbesĬanon EOS R8 Features Creator-Friendly, With Power And Varietyįor content creators, vloggers, or travel photographers, for example, it’s easy to adjust the camera settings manually, but it’s even faster to rely on the Auto settings-especially if you need to get the camera up and running quickly to capture something happening around you. The Canon EOS R8 did a great job taking pictures within a rainforest in San Ramon, Costa Rica. In fact, I found it to be more durable and more comfortable in my hands than other Canon EOS digital cameras I’ve used in the past. The Canon EOS R8’s mainly plastic body does not look or feel cheaply made or flimsy. Since few mirrorless cameras that cost less than $2,000 have weatherproof sealing, I found this a welcomed feature-especially since I knew I’d be taking pictures within one of Costa Rica’s beautiful but damp rainforests. Adding a different lens could add weight, but that you can even do so-and change how you use the camera-is one of the core advantages to interchangeable lens cameras like the EOS R8. I found the bundled Canon RF 24-50mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM lens provided a reasonable shooting range while keeping the camera comfortable around my neck (using the supplied strap). Rich For ForbesĬompared to other DSLR and mirrorless digital cameras that have a similar form factor, the Canon EOS R8 is surprisingly lightweight.
