This Command Module, no. 107, manufactured by North American Rockwell, was one of three parts of the complete Apollo spacecraft. The other two parts were the Service Module and the Lunar Module, nicknamed "Eagle." The Service Module contained the main spacecraft propulsion system and consumables while the Lunar Module was the two-person craft used by

  Country of Origin:  United States of America Artist:   Edward  G. Gibson Dimensions: Overall: 1 ft. 3 in. wide x 9 in. tall (38.1 x 22.9cm) Materials: Pencil on paper Pencil on paper drawing of Comet Kohoutek made by Astronaut E. G. Gibson during the Skylab 4 mission towards the end of 1973. The comet was discovered in early March 1973 and was predicted to become a major celestial event since it was believed to be a primordeal comet on its first passage into the inner solar system. Accordingly, NASA launched "Operation Kohoutek" to take coordinated observations from many locales including space, and timed the third Skylab mission to occur when Kohoutek was predicted to be closest to the Sun, at perihelion, when chenges in the comet were expected to be most violent and revealing of its structure, and when it was most difficult to observe from Earth. Gibson, the science specialist and pilot for the third manned Skylab visit, is a solar physicist and focused on the astrono

ME 553 (Kinematics) Final Project. A 6 legged walker driven by an electric screwdriver. The goal was to create a four bar linkage and demonstrate it's motion with a hand crank. We went above and beyond the rubric by adding 5 other legs and a motor. It didn't need to turn, it didn't need to be efficient, it just had to demonstrate we did the calculations and analysis of the path of the outer most point of the linkage.

I was sent some pictures by a source who claims China will be releasing Hi Res images taken by the Chang'e-2 moon orbiter, which clearly show buildings and structures on the moons surface.  He also claims NASA has deliberately bombed important areas of the Moon in an effort to destroy ancient artefacts and facility's.  Pictures yet to be released clearly show nuclear impact craters and building debris caused by explosions in an effort by NASA to destroy the truth. China is moving toward full disclosure of the Extraterrestrial reality, if these images and future ones are verified genuine then NASA should be investigated for fraud and treason. China will be releasing all the data and images from the Chang'e-2 in the coming weeks and months, lets hope this is the beginning of a new era.  "The narration by Karl Wolf has nothing to do with the images in this video. I included the narration by Karl Wolf merely to help the viewer realise that the cover-up by NASA concerning A

Speaking to 360 Magazine, Visceral Games' Steve Papoutsis shared his team's thoughts on what they wanted out of a next-generation console. The team is currently working on Dead Space 3, which has yet to be officially unveiled. He first explained that he wanted game installations to be a lot more hassle-free than they are at the present. "I'd love the convenience of installing your games like you do now but making that process automatic, as I want to avoid having to change discs," he said. "Microsoft has made a lot of nice improvements to the dashboard over the years so I'm expecting an even more refined and streamlined user interface for people to interact with when checking out stuff on the marketplace." He further elucidated upon his team's technical wants and wishes for the next-gen. While the onus is on the developers for delivering a fluid framerate, the developer nonetheless expressed that the hardware would have to be of the cutting edge t

The PC has been feeling some neglect in the action genre ever since consoles took the forefront in the eyes of the gaming public. But that's not to say that the platform is dead--far from it! Here are ten of the top action games on the PC. Doom 3  What can be said about the Doom series that hasn't already been said? These games are immensely satisfying, and it's hard to pick just one. However, there's so much disparity between each game, particularly between 3 and the first two, that they really have to be looked at as separate entities in this case. Doom 3 does uphold the tradition of having Earth threatened by the minions of Hell, but this time, teleportation experiments conducted by a military-fortified corporation on Mars have accidentally opened a gateway, releasing demons who are intent on heading towards Earth.   Even though the thought of demons and the walking dead taking over a military base on Mars and piloting stolen spacecraft to earth sounds moderately hil
