I went to the UMSF Store to get some gifts and there was nothing available...only the UMSF logo. Did I take a left turn?

No - I culled the products as I wasn't happy with the quality of them - I have got the busiest week in known history going on at the moment so I can't really sort out the new stuff ( using a new shiney logo..and a special varient of the logo for kiddies already beta tested on Lakdawalla Jnr ) until next week at the earliest, which I'm afraid is too late for Christmas.

Saturn day side is NOT yellow and her night side is NOT red. Your work is MUCH MUCH better on Mars

Emily, Anahita is very cute... and got a nice T-shirt too

These are the new logo designs - essentially a derivative from what we have, but huge so it will go well onto Cafepress stuff

The way things are going...I'll have it all sorted for...er...well - Easter presents anyone?

I like the spin-stabilized version

Works for me - my birthday is conveniently close to Easter, falling fairly close to the earliest it can be.

Yeah - the other ones are 3-axis

And it looks like Anahita is making a ring plane crossing, and if it's a descending pass, then her HGA is pointed in the ram direction

Perhaps some gadgetry would be nice to have in the shop too.

Lovells camera lost from his Gemini flight,

or perhaps a camera looted from a Lunakhod rover . . .

Oh, yeah, get some disintegrator capsules too, they're handy in crowded parking lots this time of year.

PPPHHHHFFFT!

"Well, whaddya know -- it disintegrated!"

Where are the RTGs ?

Posted by: djellison Dec 21 2006, 05:07 PM

You're quite right - I must add RTG's, an LGA, thermal louvres, instruments, thruster clusters and a launch adaptor right away



Remember - it's always been based upon the spacecraft symbol from the Pioneer plaques - all I'm doing is making a modern interpretation of the same thing...

Can you include the ion drives as well? I've always wanted one of those...

Posted by: djellison Dec 21 2006, 08:32 PM

Oh - it's got a solar sail as well

Posted by: tuvas Dec 21 2006, 09:20 PM

Okay then, guess I'll take that over the ion drive then...
