"These chess pieces form a remarkable group of iconic objects within the world collection of the British Museum. They were probably made in Trondheim, Norway, about AD 1150-1200. At this period, the Western Isles, where the chess pieces were found, were part of the Kingdom of Norway, not Scotland. It seems likely they were buried for safe keeping on route to be traded in Ireland." - http://www.britishmuseum.org/about_us/news_and_press/statements/the_lewis_chessmen.aspx

2200 satellites orbits and 67000 flight routes visualized in 3D 🛰️✈️ !

### Info

* Orbits are correctly scaled.
* Maximum airplanes altitude is overly exaggerated (by a factor of ~300).
* I'd advice you to visit the [Europen Space Agency (ESA) website](https://www.esa.int/Enabling_Support/Space_Transportation/Types_of_orbits) to understand the different types of orbits, and learn why the ISS orbits around Earth in ~1h40 or why your satellite dish needs to be precisely calibrated.

### Orbits categories

* Dark blue: Communications
* Light blue: Earth Observation (optical, radar, meteo...)
* Red/Orange: Positioning systems (GPS, Galileo, BeiDou...)
* Green: R&D and Space science

It also has its cargo still in place. There are a little over 30 barrels visible, mostly containing so called osmund iron. Barrels with tar, ash and butter is also found in the hold. The date of the ship is based on dendro. It date´s the wreck to 1540´s (provenance Stockholm) and has been repaired in the 1550´s (provenance, south of Finland). All dated timbers are pine.
The wreck has three masts and all it’s the rigging seems to be intact at the site. Blocs, deadeyes and the bowsprit i visible at the wreck site. Personal belongings, copper pot in the stove and som fabrics are also visible. 
Iron exports was then, and still is, one of Sweden’s most important exports but the knowledge of historic cargo ships, the trade routes and the quality of the iron is almost unknown. This wreck will be surveyd together with Jernkontoret 2021 and forward.

Haytor, also known as Haytor Rocks, Hay Tor, or occasionally Hey Tor, is a granite tor on the eastern edge of Dartmoor in the English county of Devon. Near the village of Haytor Vale in the parish of Ilsington. There is an electoral ward with the same name.

Haytor is now considered a natural beauty spot and is arguably Dartmoor's most famous landmark, popular with coach parties and walking groups. It is easily accessible by road and at a height of 457 metres (1,499 ft) right on the eastern side of the moor, it provides excellent views of the coastline, the Teign Estuary and the rolling countryside between, with the ridge of Haldon behind. The smaller, western outcrop is sometimes known as "Lowman". Rock climbers make use of both outcrops; each one has routes of varying difficulty.

Ancient Corinth sits in a strategic position between land and sea and the ancient Greek city came to prominence by controlling area trade routes. An important cultural center throughout history, the city was known for its artistic innovations and the ruins today show numerous Greek, Roman, and Byzantine architectural features. The heart of ancient Corinth was the Fountain of Peirene, a freshwater spring featured in Greek mythology which also served as the primary source of water for Corinth.

# IMPORTANT
Version that is downloadable there isn't for animation. It has some minor divergences in mesh composition, also lacks custom shaders and shapekeys for facial expressions and fur.
# *If you want to use it for youself, this is the link with full version*: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1hGiJnhZbWy-XT7rXKB5FGy6h-hV7AXUT?usp=sharing
Also, mentioning authors if you use their work is good, please do that)
(btw pose ref. made by two_route66)

Main goal for this model was to get to the style of manga and anime as close as possible in 3D. It has many shapekeys for facial expressions, fully rigged, custom shaders that closely resembles original (mostly manga) style.

So why is it free? 

Because i WANT you to MAKE MEMES and animations with it. The fact that someone uses my creation will warm my heart. No, really, it would be super cool)
Also because i'm from freakin russia, i can not physically make it profitable.. we are not alowed to have good things here as you can see..сука блять

The passenger steamer Norrtelje was built in 1900 at the William Lindberg shipyard in Stockholm. Her designer was Ernst Hemberg. For many years, the ship served the Stockholm–Furusund–Norrtälje route and was a regular sight in the Stockholm archipelago. Since 1968, she is anchored in Norrtälje harbour as a museum ship and restaurant. Original model built at the Swedish Maritime Museum by Göran Forss between 1965 and 1970. 3D model by Adam de Kaminski for SMTM, 2023.

*Passagerarfartyget Norrtelje byggdes år 1900 på William Lindbergs Varvs- och Verkstads AB i Stockholm med Ernst Hernberg som konstruktör. Under många år gick hon på traden Stockholm–Furusund–Norrtälje och var en välbekant syn i Stockholms skärgård. Sedan år 1968 ligger hon förtöjd i Norrtälje där hon fungerar som museum och restaurang. Originalmodellen byggd av Göran Forss i Sjöhistoriska museets modellverkstad 1965–1970. 3D-modell producerad av Adam de Kaminski för SMTM 2023.*

Mexican Hat is a census-designated place on the San Juan River on the northern edge of the Navajo Nations borders in south-central San Juan County, Utah, United States.

The name "Mexican Hat" comes from a curiously sombrero-shaped rock outcropping on the northeast edge of town; the rock measures 60-foot (18 m) wide by 12-foot (3.7 m). The "Hat"' has two rock climbing routes ascending it. It has frequently been noted on lists of unusual place names.

The Airbus A340 is a long-range, wide-body passenger airliner that was developed and produced by Airbus.
Keeping the eight-abreast economy cross-section of the A300, the early A340-200/300 has a similar airframe to the A330-200/300. Differences include four 151 kN (34,000 lbf) CFM56s instead of two high-thrust turbofans to bypass ETOPS restrictions on trans-oceanic routes, and a three-leg main landing gear instead of two for a heavier 276 t (608,000 lb) Maximum Takeoff Weight (MTOW). Both airliners have fly-by-wire controls, which was first introduced on the A320, as well as a similar glass cockpit. The A340-500/600 are longer, have a larger wing, and are powered by 275 kN (62,000 lbf) Rolls-Royce Trent 500 for a heavier 380 t (840,000 lb) MTOW.

L/A Meriluoto is one of two ferries operating between Oulunsalo and Hailuoto in the northwestern Finland. She has been operating on the route for 30 years, starting from 1996 and ending in 2026 when the Hailuoto causeway will replace ferry traffic.

Measurements: length: 53.5 m, breadth: 12.3 m, draught: 4.2 m, capacity: approx. 45 cars.

I went with the detailing and color scheme of the ferry in the mid-2010s, since I think the current appearance isn't as visually interesting. Model based on photomatching, not blueprints. Modeling done in Sketchup and then moved into Blender at the last minute, so have fun cleaning up the probably incredible topology and whatnot. Sorry :)

On Route 66, the sun burns bright,
Leather on skin, engines ignite,
Wind in our veins, freedom on fire,
We ride with no chains, just roads we desire.
White lines fade like thoughts in our minds,
Leaving behind all we couldn’t define…
Hey! Route 66, take me away,
Where the night shines and we lose our way,
We’re bikers, hearts made of steel,
Born to ride, that’s all we feel.
Neon lights glow on weathered faces,
Stories carved in hidden places,
Every mile tastes like danger and dust,
But on this road, it’s where we trust.
Engines roaring like a wild symphony,
It’s our language, our way to be free…
We’re bikers, hearts made of steel,
Born to ride, that’s all we feel.
And if tomorrow fades at the end of the line,
We lived every second, no reason, no sign,
Under the stars, forever untamed,
Written in asphalt… forever engraved.
Hey! Route 66, keep us alive,
In every turn, in every drive,
We’re bikers, souls burning bright,
Born for the road… and the endless nigh

From the 1985 DROIDs cartoon, one of the forgotten gems of Star Wars ships

From Wookiepedia: "The Corsalys was the freighter originally piloted by Jessica Meade circa 15 BBY. When en route to Tammuz-an carrying Mon Julpa and Jann Tosh along with his droids R2-D2 and C-3PO, it came under attack by the pirate Gir Kybo Ren-Cha and was destroyed. The crew was able to escape unharmed as the vessel's cockpit was able to separate from the main part of the craft, doubling as an escape pod."

Model is scaled to 40 meters. 

Free to use with any of your Star Wars projects, just give proper credit.
