upiphotosthree137083 Before going to sleep on flight day 5, the Artemis II crew snapped one more photo of the Moon, as it drew close in the window of the Orion spacecraft. Orion and the four humans aboard entered the lunar sphere of influence at 12:37 a.m. EDT on April 6, at the tail end of the fifth day of their mission. That marked the point at which the Moon's gravity had a stronger pull on the spacecraft than the Earth's. Artemis II's closet approach to the Moon will come on flight day 6, as they swing around the far side before beginning their journey back to Earth. About an hour after entering the lunar sphere of influence, Artemis II Mission Specialist Christina Koch said, "We are now falling to the Moon rather than rising away from Earth. It is an amazing milestone!" NASAWASHINGTON/DC/UNITED STATES

hiphotos577395 Progress of the International Exhibition building: finial of the Eastern Dome, [South Kensington, London], 1862. 'A ceremony something in the nature of a coronation has taken place by the erection of the gilded finial or terminal on the summit of the eastern dome. This ornament consists of a ball 7ft. in circumference, from which projects perpendicularly a long spike; both are richly gilt, and they shine and glitter in the most satisfactory manner. Our Engraving represents this finial as it lay on the ground prepared for hoisting to the top of the dome. This circumstance may be said to have celebrated the completion, so far as its main features of construction axe concerned, of the eastern dome. On Saturday last, at three o'clock, the centreings or supports of the twelve ribs were struck away, and the immense mass of metal stood for the first time supported alone by the columns, and groined girders The visitors and watchers of the proceedings were hoisted up to the crown of the dome in a wooden box//

'I feel our joyful meeting near, My mother bids me come, One happy week of all the year, I live with her at home. I leave the children here to play, They will be running wild; Yet must their teacher go away, Herself to be a child. I dwell in service her with those Who are not like my own; And when at eve the lessons close, I sit and think alone. I sit and think alone I sit and think alone For some I love are far away, And some from earth are sped; And on a sad and sacred day, We saw our father dead. He told us, just before, his grief, To leave our mother poor; But friends have kindly brought relief, And I can help the store. I go to make her heart rejoice; My holiday is this: I come, I hear a gentle voice; I feel a tender kiss; I cry, and fall into her arms, Where once a babe I lay; There all our troubles and alarms Are sweetly sobb'd away; And looking up thro' happy tears, I see the dear//

The shell, from its enormous size, was distinctly seen throughout its flight of 1000 yards from the gun to the target, and as the shell exploded an immense volume of smoke and flame instantly enveloped the target. Above the smoke pieces of plank were seen flying in the air, announcing the demolition of the box in the rear On taking the target to pieces the shattering effect was found to have extended far beyond the limits of the hole The whole of [the] inclosing planks were torn off and blown away by the explosion of the shell. One of the massive timber struts was also tom away from the target by the blast, and another was broken laterally by the same cause.

Diagram of ' a section through the target as it would appear if cut vertically through the centre of the hole made by the shell the target was composed externally of armour plating 4½ in. thick, resting upon and bolted to a solid backing of teak 18 in. thick, which backing was again supported by an inner plating and framework representing the body of the ship On taking the target to pieces the shattering effect was found to have extended far beyond the limits of the hole Previous to the practice the timber supports at the back of the target were covered with planks strongly nailed to the timbers The whole of these inclosing planks were torn off and blown away by the explosion of the shell. One of the massive timber struts was also tom away from the target by the blast, and another was broken laterally by the same cause. The shell appears to have exploded just//

hiphotos567927 The Turner Gold Medal Prize Landscape, by F. Walton, 1864. Engraving of a painting. 'The scene is one of those among the Surrey hills so well known to the landscape-painters of the metropolis. The view is taken from one of the hollows in the side of Leith Hill, looking towards Aldershott, Guildford is just discernible in the distance, and on the horizon is faintly traceable the peculiar contour of the hill and landmark known as the Hog's Back. The road descending the declivity of the hill from the immediate foreground is deeply cut into the marl of the district, the warm, dusky, golden hues of which afford so fine a contrast to the luxuriant greens of the foliage. To the right is a breast-high fern-brake which the hedger trims by the footpath. High on each side, with their roots exposed by the crumbling banks, are young chestnut, ash, and other trees, and through and beyond their lower leaves and boughs in shadow the sunlight glints and quivers magically. Down the road a farmer's daughter or dairymaid//

hiphotos567915 "The Woods in Autumn", by Henry Jutsum, in the Exhibition of the British Institution, 1864. Engraving of a painting. 'The season is far advanced, as we see by the sparse foliage of sere and yellow leaves, the great dry, stubbly ferns; the carpeting of dead leaves, brown and red, drifted by the wind into every hollow, and the felling of the sapless trees. As late as the middle of November is the period chosen for commencing to fell the beech, the ash, and some other trees. The great silvery-barked trunks of several fine beeches lie about, lopped of their branches and ready for the timber merchant. Other fine stems, or "boles," as they are called in some districts of England, are being felled by the foresters, and to the left some noble "butts" are drawn away by a team of oxen. The felling of so many fine beeches, which look more than usually beautiful when - as in this picture - tipped with the evening sunlight, might be no very pleasant sight to some ardent lovers of//

Military camp made up of a ' log and canvas city There curled the blue smoke from the tent of Robert E. Lee, whose hand I had just shaken, and whose friendship I am proud to own every soldier of the army of Northern Virginia was a comrade around me, on every side as far as the eye could reach, lay spread the battle-fields of Virginia; and in many a distant clump of pine wood slept their last sleep those whom I had known in life Far away in the background, tipped with snow, towered the mountains of the Blue Ridge The camp which now looked so calm and peaceful in the clear winter's sunshine, with naught to disturb the quiet but the stroke of the pioneer's axe cutting fuel for the bivouac fire, would in a few short weeks be broken up. Across the Rapidan, which flows beyond the nearer crest of hills, lay the enemy, only waiting probably the first approach of//

hiphotos567451 Meeting of the British Association at Birmingham: the Wrekin, 1865. 'The visit from Birmingham to the Wrekin was made by a party of 200, many of them ladies, the majority men of science, to whom the main attraction was the geology of the district the party proceeded to ascend the Wrekin, 1200 ft. above the Severn, from the fir-woods below. Around the grassy sides of the hill were beautiful zones of light, and on approaching the summit the trees formed a well-turfed avenue, winding through Heaven-gate to the hill-top. Here the prospect is "awful and beautiful,' extending to nineteen counties, stored with historical associations. Away to the right was fought the Battle of Shrewsbury; while to the left is the disputed site of Caractacus's last desperate stand against his Roman conquerors. Further to the left is the Devil's Chair and the summit of Caradoc-hill, surrounded by minor elevations, and undulating country, and almost imperceptible woods; and far over their tops, on very clear days, may be//

hiphotos563709 "A Shrimper", by L. Smythe, in the winter exhibition at the French Gallery, Pall-Mall, 1868. Engraving of a painting. 'It is, indeed, excellently painted, the figure being as well drawn and coloured and as thoroughly realised as the landscape, or "seascape," background is full of daylight brilliance and fresh sea air. The recession of the shallows of the ebbing tide away to where they shelve off into the deep-green sea, and the almost countless strata of light glistening clouds, succeeding each other from the zenith right down to the far-off verge of the horizon, are in particular rendered with uncommon felicity How many a jaded Londoner has lain by the hour on shingle or sand listlessly watching those poor amphibious folk who so patiently wade about to net a few shrimps or prawns, and how many will be reminded of those pleasant hours by the artist! the picture may also suggest a moment's feeling of sympathy for the myriads of our lowly brethren and sisters, who pass lives of//

'The merit of the present drawing is none the less because modest in kind. On the contrary, the examination which it deserves will reveal a genuine, unforced, unvulgar sympathy with its humble subject, accompanied by excellent drawing and an artistic feeling for colour Any reader may construct for himself the story of the lonely mariner away - far away on yonder treacherous sea, now so calm, so beautiful and bright; of the little son, the pride of the family, already giving indications of a bias towards his father's adventurous calling, and who, having constructed a toy sailing-boat - a miracle of skill - has brought his elder and younger sister down to the beach to witness his triumph in naval architecture, though won only on a little pool left by the ebbing tide'.

The ' largest and most impressive of all lighter-than-aircraft. Because of Hitler's general attitude, the United States had refused to sell Germany helium for their ship. She had to make do with thousands of cubic feet of flammable hydrogen the Hindenburg arrives after her Atlantic flight. Over the fields she cruises for three hours, while making vain attempts to bring her tail up to the level of her nose. Ballast is dropped again and again, but in vain.

hiphotos556366 "Thoughts of Home," by Guido Bach, 1870. 'Mr. Bach, the painter of this effective drawing in the exhibition of the Water-Colour Institute, has done wisely in limiting the view of his subject to the bust If more of the figure had been included, we might have wished the little outlandish urchin safely back to the place he seems to be yearning for. The sight of a nasally-toned, squeaking flageolet, or of a scraping, grinding, ear-torturing hurdy-gurdy, would have been quite sufficient to replace any approach to pity or commiseration with hate and direst thoughts of vengeance As it is, we have some chance of getting up a little sympathy for the poor expatriated, and, it may be, virtually kidnapped little wanderer His sheepskin coat, his blue jacket and red waistcoat, his little conical hat with its gay worsted trimmings proclaim his native home to be a far-away ultramontane region - somewhere about the Roman Campagna [of Italy], probably; not a desirable locality, it is true, for//

hiphotos550010 Highland Deerstalking: "By George! Missed Again", 1871. 'Of all the sports pursued in season by men who seek their pleasure in the killing of animals on the mountains and moors of North Britain, the most arduous and laborious is probably that of the rifleman in pursuit of the red deer many writers have described the manner in which the swift and wary beast may be approached near enough for a shot, by creeping towards him under cover of every crag, dyke, tuft of heather, taking care always to keep to leeward of the sagacious creature, so as not to be betrayed to his observation by the scent. It must be a difficult enterprise, tasking all the skill and ingenuity, as well as the patience and bodily strength, of the determined sportsman "By George! missed again!" is an exclamation often heard from the lips of a disappointed shooter, a few seconds after the crack of the shot has sounded through the clear mountain air, scattering the frightened herd far away upon the hills, while//

Illustration of ' the blowing down of a stockade, by firing bags of gunpowder and cakes of gun-cotton against it Lieutenant Sykes fired the gunpowder, while Lieutenant E. H. Cameron fired the gun-cotton. The object was to see which would make the better breach. The effect has been thus described: "Of the two breaches in the stockade, that made by the cotton was by far the cleanest. The cotton ignites so quickly that, as it were, it strikes, while the powder only pushes. It had cut off the timbers against which it was laid close to the ground; they could not have been felled more squarely by an axe-man. The powder had made the wider breach, but in it the logs lay over one another, and would require clearing away before men could pass. The cotton had flung the beams out of the road, so that the stormers might rush in three abreast. The railway-bridge timbers were broken short off, and//

hiphotos549834 The Total Solar Eclipse of Dec. 12: V. - central eclipse just ending, 1871. 'Lastly, after another interval of about fifty minutes, central eclipse comes to an end for the whole earth. The sun is still partially eclipsed at the Australian stations, where the day is also far spent, though where the central eclipse first began (in the Arabian Sea) it is still early in the forenoon. The central shadow is passing away at a region in the Pacific Ocean (close to the equator), and there passengers on some passing ship, or savages on some small island of the Polynesian groups, may witness the strange phenomena of a black sunset, the sun sinking beneath the waves of ocean with the moon upon his face The solar eclipse of next Tuesday is the last of a series of four - occurring in four successive years - which have led to remarkable scientific expeditions. In August, 1868, the great Indian eclipse took place, and along the path of the shadow were stationed two well-equipped English observing parties, as well as//

hiphotos549145 Elijah Receiving Bread from the Widow of Zarephath, 1621-1624. Additional Info: In Giovanni Lanfranco's highly original design, a few large figures stand in a shallow foreground space. Using a low viewpoint and dramatic foreshortening, Lanfranco depicted the figures as if seen from below, imbuing them with monumentality. The powerful composition communicated both to spectators standing far away and to viewers standing beneath the painting.In this Old Testament story (1 Kings 17:8-24), the poor widow of Zarephath nourished Elijah in the desert with bread baked from a supply of grain that Elijah had assured her would be miraculously renewed by God. In Catholic theology, the widow's bread prefigured both the bread served at the Last Supper and God's sustenance of each Christian's spirit through the sacrament of the Eucharist//

The angel tells Sergius that the bishop Saint Lambert has been assassinated and Sergius is to appoint a new bishop, Saint Hubert. The angel holds a bishop's miter and crozier formerly belonging to Saint Lambert. To the right, the Pope and two cardinals go out into a brick enclosure, meeting a lawyer or noble and a Franciscan friar, who both kneel before the papal retinue and present petitions requesting benefits or indulgences. In the far distance, on the steps of the early Saint Peter's Cathedral, Pope Sergius presents Saint Hubert with the bishop's miter and staff//

hiphotos547716 Mosaic Floor with Achilles and Briseis, A.D. 100-300. Additional Info: Although quite fragmentary, enough remains of the scene depicted in this floor mosaic to identify it as one of the earliest episodes from Homer’s Iliad (Book 1, lines 409-415): the moment when Briseis, the captive war-prize of the hero Achilles, is taken from him to be given instead to Agamemnon, king of Mycenae. This contest between two great Greek warriors set in motion the rest of Homer's epic poem. The mosaic shows Briseis being led away by two heralds on the right, Talthybios and Eurybates, who wear traveler’s hats and carry staffs. Only her face remains intact. Achilles, holding a lyre and seated next to Patroclus, watches morosely from the far left. The older, bearded man may be Achilles’s tutor, Phoenix. The scene takes place in a tent; in the background are two shields holding up a curtain//

hiphotos547027 Deathbed Scene; Spinola Hours, about 1510-1520. Additional Info:This miniature illustrates the Office for the Dead, one of the essential texts of a book of hours. Said over the body of the deceased the night before a burial, the office was also read daily as a reminder of one's mortality, reflecting the need for constant penitence. In the lower border Death, represented as a gruesome corpse, hunts a man in a park-like landscape. Above, the victim lies on his deathbed while clerics read the Office for the Dead. The artist linked the two scenes by suggesting that the interior we see in the miniature is an enlarged, cut-away view of the house depicted in the border. In addition, an elusive figure with a red hat on the far left unites the hunting scene with the deathbed scene. This man appears twice, first leaving the hunt, walking away from the viewer down a hillside, and then passing into the house from its entryway on the left//

'The right wing of the whole Communist army lay beyond the Seine The proper bridge of Asnières was destroyed, as our readers will remember, during the Prussian siege; but the railway bridge still remains, and there was a bridge of boats also. The Communists, on the 17th April, not only occupied Asnières, but had intrenchments and barricades as far as Colombes it was especially important to get possession of Asnières, to obtain a second position for crossing the Seine Some Versailles mitrailleuses, placed on the right of the Communist intrenchments, forced their defenders to abandon them shot was rained upon the fugitives.

They threw themselves upon it pell-mell, some falling into the river This capture of Asnières was effected so quickly that the//

This mound is situated near the suburb of Passy, close to the Seine at the Quai be Billy, opposite to the Pont de Jena and the Champ de Mars. It is too far away for the battery here to reach the positions held by the Versailles army on the left bank of the river, the whole width of the Bois de Boulogne//

hiphotos545466 The Fighting in Paris: a street incident, 1871. 'In conducting some of the prisoners taken on an earlier day from the western quarter of Paris, near the Park Monçeau, a very sad incident took place. A husband and wife were seized and ordered to march forward towards the Place Vendome, a distance of a mile and a half. They were both of them invalids, and unable to walk so far. The woman sat down on the kerbstone and declined to move a step, in spite of her husband's entreaties that she would try. She persisted in her refusal, and they both knelt down together, begging the gendarmes who accompanied them to shoot them at once, if shot they were to be. Twenty revolvers were fired, but they still breathed; and it was only at the second discharge that they finally sank down dead. The gendarmes then rode away, leaving the bodies as they had fallen'.

' the officer of the watch and the steersman at the wheel In the old sailing-ships, the officer of the vessel was on the poop or quarter-deck [however] when the officer was on the bridge and the man at the wheel was far away at the stern, orders were misunderstood which in some cases led to accidents. To obviate this, the wheel is now generally placed on the bridge, so that the officer can give his orders direct, and he is also on the spot to see that they are carried out, while the man himself can see the reason of the order, and hence acts more intelligently. He has the binnacle with the compass lighted up before him, which he is supposed to watch so as to keep the ship true to her course The officer paces along the bridge, keeping his eye on the horizon, and watching every speck that appears; as he passes the binnacle, he glances at it, to see that the course is right.

My Lady's pheasants and port wine mostly went that way, as they had done in the late Lord's time. It was he who had first taught her how sublime a thing is charity, and she had got the lesson long ago by heart. It might have seemed to those around her as though her good deeds ended there, but many far away could have told a different story.

The Villa Hohenlohe, which is a two-storied house in an elegant Swiss style, stands on an eminence overlooking the valley of the Rhine, with the famous battle-fields of Worth and Weissemburg in the far distance. The town of Baden stretches away in a long winding valley at its foot, and the pine-clad Black Forest hills extend in all directions.

'In this picture two well-known personages of English history are represented, of whom the saddest and most shameful tale is to be told The spirit of ecclesiastical partisanship has also inclined many zealous friends of the Protestant Reformation, as by law established in the reign of Henry VIII., to condone the gross crimes of which that selfish profligate and hypocrite was guilty, in putting away a true and faithful wife under pretence of religions scruples, forcing the Church to sanction this foul iniquity, and instantly seizing, by his marriage with Anne, the object of a base and licentious desire. Throughout the series of intrigues consummated by that most unholy union the part of Anne Boleyn could not have been an innocent part; and her conduct then, in supplanting her Royal mistress, was really far worse than the alleged infidelities to Henry which he//

'"When wild war's deadly blast was blown, And gentle peace returning, Wi' mony a sweet babe fatherless, And mony a widow mourning". These lines from Burns's "Sodger's Return" are appropriately quoted by Mr. John Faed in connection with [his] picture the scene is laid in a Scotch cottier home; the period may be that, say, of the Crimean War or Indian Mutiny; and the head of this humble house is away "fighting for his country." News of the absent one, long looked for, perhaps, and certainly awaited with yearning love and boding anxiety, at length arrives. The letter (not in the familiar handwriting) proclaims a victory, but it also announces the husband, father, and son in the list of slain. The blow that laid the poor soldier low now pierces two other hearts far away. What is the glorious victory to them? Death on the field is merciful compared to their//
