Here's a visualization of 688 exoplanets from [NASA's exoplanet catalog](https://go.nasa.gov/2y0sll0) (which contains 4152 exoplanets as of April 28th, 2020), done with Python and Blender.

**Disclaimer:** I filtered the exoplanets according to parameters of interest ("only" kept 688), and spent some time recomputing parameters (such as surface gravity or temperature) while re-learning some "basic" black-body radiation and orbital mechanics equations, before mapping the resulting parameters to positions and textures in Blender. The values in this visualization are therefore approximations (and should not be used for interstellar navigation &#128517;).

I would advise you to visit the [NASA website dedicated to exoplanets](https://exoplanets.nasa.gov/) to learn more about methods linked to exoplanets detection.

And why not listen to one of those two extraordinary covers of "Life On Mars" from David Bowie while doing so ?

The Grumman F-14 Tomcat is an American supersonic, twin-engine, two-seat, variable-sweep wing fighter aircraft. The Tomcat was developed for the United States Navy's Naval Fighter Experimental (VFX) program after the collapse of the F-111B project. The F-14 was the first of the American teen-series fighters, which were designed incorporating air combat experience against MiG fighters during the Vietnam War.

The F-14 first flew in December 1970 and made its first deployment in 1974 with the U.S. Navy aboard USS Enterprise (CVN-65), replacing the McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II. The F-14 served as the U.S. Navy's primary maritime air superiority fighter, fleet defense interceptor, and tactical aerial reconnaissance platform into the 1990s. The Low Altitude Navigation and Targeting Infrared for Night (LANTIRN) pod system was added in the 1990s and the Tomcat began performing precision ground-attack missions.

The goal of this project was to create a small asset pack that coule be placed within 3 environments. They were to be general enough to work outdoors on or indoors. The props would not be interacted with and the player will not be focused on investigating them too closely. These props would also have served the purpose to provide level blocking and layout, since they are large enough to affect navigation.

The assets would be considered lower detail background models. All assets should be included as one asset, they should all share the same material and texture set, one material and UV channel, with a texture resolution of 2048x2048 and a mostly uniform texel density and under 5000 vertices. Assets were to be textured using a PBR workflow with a packed texture (ARM), created with modular design in mind and appropriate real-world scale (centimeters).

While I did not end up getting an offer for this position, I believe that these assets turned out very well!

This large-scale  horizontal and vertical planing machine, also known as 'wallcreeper', was used to accurately create flat surfaces on large pieces of metal. It could plane both horizontal and vertical surfaces without altering the setting of the workplace. 

Manufacturers did a roaring trade when shipbuilders and associated companies placed orders. These machines, however, were built to last. This machine for example, was used in  Renfrew maintenance works of the Clyde Navigation Trust from 1906 until 1984, which shows how reliable such tools were. 

Scottish manufacturers such as Thomas Shanks & Co. produced machine tools for companies worldwide. The scale of Scottish production was huge, and the development of machine tools made the large-scale manufacture of iron and steel ships possible. 




The 3D model was created as a part of ‘Scanning The Horizon’ 3D Digitisation Project.

The Ford Seattle-ite XXI was a concept car designed by Alex Tremulis and displayed on 20 April 1962 on the Ford stand at the Seattle World's Fair.

The car contained novel ideas that have since become reality: interchangeable fuel cell power units; interchangeable bodies; interactive computer navigation, mapping, and auto information systems; and four driving and steering wheels. The concept of some form of compact nuclear propulsion device was included as a possible power source on the assumption that radiation issues could be overcome without the need for prohibitively bulky shielding

This single column steam hammer was built in 1907,  for  the opening of the Clyde Port Authority (Clyde Navigation Trust) repair workshops in Renfrew.

When the works closed the hammer was transferred, with other machinery, to the Scottish Maritime Museum.

It is an example of a steam hammer made to Rigby’s patent by the leading maker of such machines, RG Ross & Sons at their Greenhead Engine Works in Glasgow. It was used to forge replacement parts for the Clyde Navigation Trusts’s fleet of dredgers and hopper barges.

Steam hammes consists of a cast iron base plate and the hammer body which carries a steam piston and hammer head.

It was operated by pulling on the long metal lever on the right hand side. This released steam into the piston making the hammer head move down with great force.
A trained operator could vary the pressure the hammer head exerted - some chose to show off their skills by borrowing a watch, placing it under the hammer and halting the hammer head a fraction above the glass face.

A Mercator map of the starry heavens drawn by William Croswell,1810.
The 19th century western constellations are projected on the earth for navigation references.
By building your city under the projected trajectory of a star at a specific time. Now you can navigate, from land to sea, and from city to city.  By checking the map you can still see that some cities have been founded with this principle in mind. This was the antiquity GPS system. far more reliable than the modern one. This is why the medieval astrological projections are inverted. Because it is not to document the sky, but to document the "where about" on earth. By also knowing the cyclic derivation of a selected star (around 15 meters par year), you can also deduce the date of the city foundation as long as you have the correct data.

Ce sextant, a fait partie de l’armement du *Joshua*, le bateau du célèbre navigateur Bernard Moitessier, « le vagabond des mers du Sud ». Instrument inventé pour la navigation marine, il permet de se localiser en mesurant l'angle entre l'horizon et un objet lointain (clocher, montagne) ou un astre (Soleil, Lune ou étoile). 
Il est composé d'une petite lunette, pour viser l'horizon, de deux miroirs (qui projettent l'image de l'objet visé), d'un bras mobile et d'un arc de cercle gradué sur lequel on lit l’angle formé entre l’objet visé et l’horizon. L'angle d'ouverture est de 60°, d'où le nom de l'instrument.

An astrolabe is an astronomical instrument enabling the user to identify stars and planets and their positions as well as being an aid to navigation.

I have based this model on an instrument in the collection of the British Museum (1909,0617.1) dating back to 1326  - click this link for more information https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection/object/H_1909-0617-1

To learn more about the use of these instruments click this link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astrolabe

I have used images for reference that are copyright of the Trustees of the British Museum and they are for non commerial use only - so I have made this model 'non-commercial use'

I made the model in Zbrush and created a set of alphas in Procreate on the ipad closely following the markings on the original instrument.  I used these in Substance Painter to create the etched details.  This model is not really for 3d printing - the markings will not appear on the print.

Full name: **Astronomical telescope with a Gregorian mirror system**

This type of telescope was first described in 1663 by James Gregory (1638-1675), a Scottish mathematician and astronomer, professor at the University of Edinburgh and St. Andrews University in Scotland. Inventor of the first reflecting telescope. He proposed a method of determining an astronomical unit based on observations of the transit of Venus in front of the disc of the Sun. 

This particular telescope was engineered by Jesse Ramsden (1735–1800), optician, maker of scientific instruments, mainly astronomical and navigational ones, Fellow of the Royal Society in London.

**“Brassbound Rescue Car”** is the common name for *Aetheromachina victoris*, a hybrid aero‑crawler developed during the early age of atmospheric‑lift experimentation. Its brass‑reinforced frame wasn’t ornamental, it housed pressure‑stabilizing channels that allowed the craft to maintain equilibrium during low‑altitude hover maneuvers. The dual domes enabled paired navigation, with one pilot managing thrust vectors while the other controlled limb articulation.

Its unexpected purpose emerged in disaster‑zone retrieval missions. The vehicle’s hover pads produced minimal ground disturbance, letting crews extract survivors from unstable terrain where conventional transports risked collapse. Over time, *A. victoris* became a symbol of improbable heroism: a machine that looked like chaos incarnate but operated with surgical precision.

Today, GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems) positioning relies on several constellations. The exact number varies slightly depending on the source and the status of the satellites (active, in reserve, maintenance), but a reliable order of magnitude can be given (2025–2026):
Main constellations (global coverage)
• GPS (United States): ~31 active satellites
• GLONASS (Russia): ~24 operational satellites
• Galileo (Europe): ~27 operational satellites (≈30 in orbit)
• BeiDou (China): ~35 satellites (current order of magnitude for the complete constellation)
Total global GNSS
In practice, this equates to approximately 110 to 120 active satellites used for global positioning.
The system with twenty-four satellites was fully operational in 1995. Knowing the satellite positions at the time the signals were transmitted, and the measured pseudo-distances (possibly corrected for various factors.
