Katsu-san, I am nominating you funniest person of the year. That last post of yours cracked me up and made my day
Arigatou!

Thank you George-san! But I myself would like to nominate Mr. Kristopher Wandall aka Korben44 for the funniest person who is making everyone's day happy with many many funny pics and movies on Facebook. During the days of Covid19 and my wife's depression, he keeps put up those contents that make us laugh and smile and saving us a lot. Thank you Kris-san!

I'm glad I can help make you and your wife laugh! I'll keep posting to keep you smiling!

This is a pic of Jupiter and three of its moons I took tonight. I used my cell phone and binoculars mounted on an antique camera tripod. What does this have to do with Katsu-san's project you ask? Perhaps someday his vehicle will patrol one of these moons.

That is a pretty good job of splitting out the moons. I've tried to get pics and they never turn out

At this time not long after dark, both Jupiter and Saturn are visible in the south/south east sky near the constellation of Sagitarius,. Jupiter being the brightest thing in the sky.

A few weeks ago, I was able to catch the shadow of Jupiters moon moving across Jupiter

And Saturn is amazing to see through a telescope.

A bit later in the evening in the east, Mars comes up. It is distinctly more orange/red than many other things and is the brightest thing in that part of the sky

Katsu-san's vehicles would be perfect explorers for those worlds
 
Woow, Ken-san. This is a very romantic picture.
Thank you very much for sharing! This is a very nice co-incidents.
Last night, my daughter Yuki climbed up the roof and watched the Perseids meteor until 4 o'clock in the morning. She said it was so beautiful. And she made wish for many thing she hopes to come true.
Just because, once, I told her. If you can make a wish upon a shooting star, your wish will definitely come true. This is my very own theory but, if you can make a wish at an instant at the moment you see the shooting star, which means, the very wish is always occupied in your mind. So you will never miss any little opportunity or chance to make your wish come true. Gentlemen, this is true. Please remember.
Thank you very much, gentlemen. Thank you very, much, Ken-san. George-san, and Analyzer-san!

It's killing hot these days here but will be ease down next week. I will back to my workbench!

Katsu

PS: Analyzer-san, how is your hair cut going?
 
I always make a wish!

And fun facts about the Perseid meteors...
  • You must within 129 miles (200 km) from a meteor to see it
  • The typical bright meteor is produced by a particle no larger than a pea, and the meteors you see during the Perseids are even smaller, roughly the size of a grain of sand
  • Perseid meteors enter the atmosphere at an average speed of 133,000 mph (214,000 kmh)

I did manage to get a half decent photo of Jupiter as it looks through the telescope lens by holding up my phone camera to the eyepiece. Unfortunately the cloud belts did not show up in the picture, but in person you could easily see them. The fourth moon you normally see was actually in front of Jupiter casting a shadow onto Jupiter, but it did not show up in the pic despite being able to see it in person as well

This is probably pretty close to what you would see through binoculars. From a really dark sky, for someone with great vision you supossedly actually spot the brighter moons of Jupiter with the naked eye

Neatly done, Analizer(y) looking tidy
Katsu-san, we just had a heatwave, so I kind of know how you must be feeling.I wish you and your family cool weather & fresh air ! Oh, and that Yuki-san's wish may come true:whistle: what a blessing to be able to sit on the roof and watch the stars
 
Heey, you got a huge gradeup now.
Nearly Johnny Depp!
Your highness may allow you to sleep beside her.

Thanks for the pic again. It is amazing to know that the cell phone camera and a telescope lens can catch this view. And thanks for the info about the meteor. The naked space is always above us but we knew almost nothing about it. More I know about the space, more I feel the mystery.
I recently learned that if we haven't had Jupiter in our solar system, the biologic situation of the earth will dramatically different. Not only we have been saved by its gravity but being the great sealed for the incoming large size meteor. Also, it had a possibility to be another sun in our system.
The night sky here is too bright to see the milky way galaxy. Looks like the place Analyzer-san living has a vast spectacle of star field urging you to heads up.

And thank you George-san. My Yuki sending a big kiss to you all.
 
Some morning news show said this morning that the large hurricane has disembarked on the mid southern states of the America. More than 600,000 citizens living nearby the coast have been ordered to evacuate. I'm worrying about if my good friends living in those places are alright.
I'm praying all of you are well and safe now.
 
My Aunt lives down there in New Orleans. She had evacuated but has not been back to her house yet.

The odd thing I always remember is at the end of the block there is a hill/embankment, you walk up that hill and there is a lake. She has to be at least 6 to 10 feet below sea level, or at least is seems that way

Good to hear your aunt made a safe evacuation.
But she may be so afraid of her house situation. I pray it has not been damaged badly.
Is the place she stays enough safe from infection by the virus? I heard they are staying in hotel rooms aren't they?
New Orleans had been suffering a catastrophic damage by the hurricane Katrina only 15 years ago. I remember how bad that was. And only 10 years ago, the coast of the state of Louisiana was soiled by the blew up of oil rig of Deep Horizon.
Oh, I hope no one has been lost their lives this time and the soonest recovery.
I heard the FEMA is a very reliable organization for the crisis like this.
 
Hi, everyone!

Sorry for the long absence.
I started up again my build.
The first batch of the tire was a bit too small.
So, I have just stopped while I have been waiting for coming up with an idea. Recently, I decided to build another four large size wheels. And set those 4 smaller tires in between those 6 large tires. Just like the SPV.
And I am now trying to make those tread pattern of the tires more precisely.

Again, I'm sorry about putting up another boring pic but I will post up any results soon.

Thanks for looking,

katsu
