I couldn’t resist this – Eagle 1 and Moon Base Alpha from Space:1999, a late 70’s TV Show. Showing some of the vastness of the 1:200 scale Lunar Surface Model in the Kingdom of DeMolay;

At long last, we have arrived on the Moon! NASA DEM (Digital Elevation Model) data was used to create accurate height maps. The data provided is 7 meters per pixel, so scale is a bit off (approx. 1m:50m), a bit like a table-top simulation of a large part (5km square) of the lunar surface. This is an expansion of an earlier single-sim project of the same surface elevation[video here]. 1/8th gravity means this turbo-charged golf cart gets big air! Tons of fun can be had trying to jump across the many craters and basins.

A nice surprise greeted me when I browsed to http://www.scoop.it/t/second-life-good-stuff – I found this pic taken near Fastnet Rock:

New Toulouse St. Charles Sim has been scheduled for an exhibit of the Kiku Klassics, and some new work, based on the Belle Harbor Yacht Club. A special nod to the local folks out there in Far Rockaway! The photo shows the original in 1914. This will form a gallery space and welcome area for the surrounding sim. Also during this time, a re-building of some lighthouses will take place – my SL work in 2006 – these classic builds will be given a retrofit using the newest techniques and tools available. Thank you to Steadman Kondor and the New Toulouse Estate for this wonderful invitation!
