Mission Control, it was about this tall. I can't believe a moon man stole the Lunar Rover.

Growing up in SoutLA and living in NOLA I know a "redbone" when I see one, and that sure looks like a redbone to me. I'm not saying she is, but I'm sure as hell not saying she isn't.

Late to the party, but how is this not more widely discussed throughout the south? Is the something people have just conveniently chosen to ignore

As to be expected, but Roosevelt seems to have aged the most.

The old abandoned Huey P. Long Pool/Fieldhouse (that is still on the LSU campus)

Any plans to restore? Seems like it would be gorgeous if done correctly. Sure students would put it to good use

Overall solid thread. I've been dealing with family illness and this thread was a great distraction

I am sure back then it probably was behind people's backs. In our lifetimes it wouldn't be discussed as it doesn't quite fit the narrative.

This was for the Hubble Space Telescope upgrade mission in 2009. There was a standby shuttle on the second pad in the event a rescue mission was needed.

Mervyn O’Gorman (1871-1958) is best known as one of the greatest British engineers, and during WW1 was head of the Royal Aircraft Establishment at Farnborough. O’Gorman was also known as an early pioneer of color photography, and was an artist in addition to his interest aeronautics.

Many of his images are included in exhibitions referencing early color photography, including this dreamlike series of his daughter Christina using the Autochrome process in 1913.

The Autochrome process, patented in 1903, was the first fully practical single-plate color process that was accessible to the public.

Why are a lot of the older posts showing images as hyperlinks now?
