  • Hours before a European Space Agency Ariane 5 rocket launch, a computer monitor displays cryogenic data at the CDL3 launch centre at ESA's Space Centre at Kourou, French Guiana. It shows the status of liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen propellant systems within a Vulcain engine. Stored in the launcher tanks and fed to the engine, they react chemically and expand in the engine combustion chamber then forced through the nozzle to provide the thrust that propels the vehicle into orbit. Cryogenic engines utilise propellants that are liquid under cryogenic conditions, at a temperature much lower than normal ambient conditions (-251°C for hydrogen and -184°C for oxygen). The advantage of cryogenic propellants is that they provide the highest thrust performance. .

  • Standing on weathered concrete at an old launchpad from a bygone age, space tourists stop to photograph the current Ariane 5 launchpad while on a tour of the European Space Agency at Kourou, French Guiana. They are mostly Japanese, representing their B-SAT communications satellite which is to be sent into orbit later that night alongside a US-made Hughes Corporation and Lockheed Martin technology. An American NASA space technician walks past the four Japanese as they hold cameras that record their souvenirs of a memorable day at this space facility deep in the South American rainforest. The orange bags carried by all are gas masks. Should the out of sight rocket booster explode or leak liguid propellant, dangerous fumes might overcome the visitors.

  • The writer, essayist and philosopher Alain de Botton stands in front of a mural of a Soyuz rocket of the Russian Federal Space Agency (Roskosmos) taking off from a mobile gantry at the European Space Agency (ESA). De Botton is in French Guiana researching his book 'The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work' published in April 2009. The illustration celebrates a future Russian mission if construction of their new facilities continues with the help of the French and other space agencies. Cosmonauts and technicians will ooccupy a purpose-built town near ESA's rocket complex. Alain de Botton (born Zurich, 1969) now lives in London. His best-selling books refer both to his own experiences and ideas- and those of artists, philosophers and thinkers. It's a style of writing that has been termed a 'philosophy of everyday life.'

  • In a sterile clean room, one module section of the European Space Agency's Automated Transfer Vehicle (ATV) called Jules Verne, is under construction by technicians of an integration team at Europe's Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana. The ATV cargo carrier is the world's largest and most complex orbiting spacecraft and is a new series of autonomous spaceships designed to re-supply the International Space Station with replacement cargo, propellant, water and oxygen to the orbital outpost. Launched in March 2008 and self-destructed with waste during its return to earth's atmosphere that September, it delivered 4.6 tonnes of payload to the ISS, including 1,150 kg of dry cargo, 856 kg of propellant for the Russian Zvezda module, 270 kg of drinking water and 21 kg of oxygen.

  • Lingerie-clad models stage a protest by the animal rights organisation, Peta against the suffering of animals, on 17th Febriary 2017, in London, England, United Kingdom. The group stripped off into matching green underwear and crocodile masks before posing outside the show's main venue on the Strand in central London. Peta is campaigning against the use of exotic animal skins in the fashion industry. It follows an investigation of crocodile farms which found animals were confined to pits and sometimes still alive when their skin was torn off, Peta said. London Fashion Week is a clothing trade show held in London twice each year, in February and September. It is one of the "Big Four" fashion weeks, along with the New York, Milan and Paris. The fashion sector plays a significant role in the UK economy with London Fashion Week alone estimated to rake in £269 million each season. The six-day industry event allows designers to show their collections to buyers, journalists and celebrities and also maintains the city’s status as a top fashion capital.

  • Barclays rental Boris Bikes stationed on dock in Soho Square, London...Barclays Cycle Hire is a public bicycle sharing scheme that was launched on 30 July 2010 in London, UK. At launch there were 315 bicycle docking stations and 5,000 bicycles available in central London. The scheme is also informally called the Boris Bike scheme after mayor Boris Johnson, who was in office at the time the scheme opened to the public. The project initially covered about 17 square miles (44 square kilometres) of central London - roughly the same area as the 'Zone 1' Travelcard area (covering the whole of the City of London and parts of eight London boroughs)[5]  and will cost an estimated £140 million (more than £20,000 per available bike) over six years. It is expected to pay for itself over time.[6] Barclays' contribution is £25 million.[The bicycles and the docking stations are built in Canada and are based on Bixi, Montreal's bicycle rental system.

  • Barclays rental Boris Bikes stationed on dock in Soho Square, London...Barclays Cycle Hire is a public bicycle sharing scheme that was launched on 30 July 2010 in London, UK. At launch there were 315 bicycle docking stations and 5,000 bicycles available in central London. The scheme is also informally called the Boris Bike scheme after mayor Boris Johnson, who was in office at the time the scheme opened to the public. The project initially covered about 17 square miles (44 square kilometres) of central London - roughly the same area as the 'Zone 1' Travelcard area (covering the whole of the City of London and parts of eight London boroughs)[5]  and will cost an estimated £140 million (more than £20,000 per available bike) over six years. It is expected to pay for itself over time.[6] Barclays' contribution is £25 million.[The bicycles and the docking stations are built in Canada and are based on Bixi, Montreal's bicycle rental system.

  • A motor launch passes a narrow boat with parrot and dog in the early morning on a still River Thames at Dorchester, Oxfordshire. In the foreground is a caged parrot and a small Scotty dog. We see a scene of early misty light across the perfectly still waters, a landscape of peace and tranquillity. The mirror-like surface is at Dorchester-on-Thames, just above the Thame's confluence with the River Thames. The River Thames is the second longest river in the United Kingdom and the longest river entirely in England (215 miles or 346 km long). It rises at Thames Head in Gloucestershire, and flows into the North Sea at the Thames Estuary. Historically the Thames was only so-named downstream of the village; upstream it is named the Isis, and Ordnance Survey maps continue to label the river as "River Thames or Isis" until Dorchester.
