These men have built their own rocket, and it actually flew to explore outer space. Surely, much money and resources have been spent on this project. A special camera was placed on board. The rocket launch was successful, and its flight has exceeded all expectations.

This is a new compilation of beautiful and impressive space photos taken by Colonel Douglas H. Wheelock and posted on his Twitter account. This time he shows us pictures from his space mission up to November 25, 2010, when his crew safely landed their Soyuz spacecraft in Kazakhstan, and many wonderful photographs of Earth taken from space.
This isn’t a dream or a crazy idea it is an upcoming fact. In the future we can take trips to hotels in outer space.
These are some amazing photos from space. They were uploaded by Colonel Douglas H. on his Twitter account. They were taken while he was on the International space station. They are some really incredible photos.
In this tiny 500 sq. ft apartment there is a place for everything and everything is in its place. It has storage space in some most unusual places which gives it a very clean and uncluttered look. The wood trim gives it a cozy feeling.
There are dozens of spacecraft orbiting our solar system. NASA and ESA take many photographs of Earth, Mercury, the Moon, Mars, Saturn and other planets. Inside this post you can see the most recent pictures from around our solar system. Some of them are closely scaled, others are millions of kilometers afar which makes them ever more fantastic and amazing.
While space traveling is still not affordable for most of us, all we are left to do is enjoy some spectacular space photos. These pictures belong to NASA astronaut Douglas H. Wheelock who sent them to Earth via his Twitter account.
A great collection of thrilling and fantastic space photos taken by NASA.
If you ever happen to visit the International Space Station, don’t miss a chance to take pictures. They will be beautiful and thrilling, just like the ones after the jump.
Well, it is easy. They do the markings themselves :)
Beijing, the capital of China, is a very busy city and it is almost impossible to find a spot to park. So people are bringing some king of handmade “carpets” that match the color of the road with parking markings and then they put a fake parking sign and voila.
The police say they can only arrest these people if they catch them red-handed, otherwise they don’t touch them.
Space art is eye-catching, peaceful and unique in its own way. I can spend hours looking at these space illustrations and “flying” away into my thoughts. Images you will find inside this post are created by such artists as Camille Besneville, Josef Barton, Jakub Skorutowski and others.
Some of the following images remind me of snow, ice and waves. But they all are clouds seen from space. Beautiful and fascinating photos that personally I find fantastic and mysterious.
If you like to observe clouds, you can also check out Heaven out of the Airplane Window.
