rating lego space shuttles: 2019-2022

#31091 Shuttle Transporter (2019)

despite regaining the landing gear this actually feels like a further step down from #31066. it’s unfair to hold a little shuttle like this to the same standard as a minifig shuttle, but on the other hand, the fact that it’s not minifig-scaled but still bigger than the ideas mini-shuttles is itself a mark against it. competent but not much to say past that. 🚀🚀1/2

(hm, do these start with “31″ because they’re “3-in-1?”)

#60224 Satellite Service Mission (2019)

city 2019 brought in another wave of space sets, this time a near-future theme focused on manned mars missions, and this brought with it future shuttles galore. we begin with this spiritual successor to #60078 utility shuttle, which looked oddly squished. this one solves that problem by being even more squished to the point that it looks intentional, forgoing a cargo bay entirely in favor of stashing the satellite in the back, between the (adjustable) engines. it looks cool, though it also feels like it wants to be a starfighter when it grows up. 🚀🚀🚀

#60226 Mars Research Shuttle (2019)

this is the “proper” shuttle for the mars exploration subtheme, and subjectively speaking, my favorite lego future shuttle. being objective, though, I have to dock some points for a weird quirk it has: there’s seating for two astronauts, but one of the seats is in the cargo bay. what the heck? still, props for a good arrangement of space shuttley bits. interestingly, instead of a satellite, this shuttle carries a little rocket-propelled box, presumably for recovering samples taken by the rover. 🚀🚀🚀🚀

also you can tell exactly when this set was designed because it includes a little not!ingenuity helicopter.

#60227 Lunar Space Station (2019)

so this set is totally inspired by the lunar gateway station that’s supposed to be part of the artemis program and to later serve as sort of an intermediate stop for mars missions, though it’s not really based on it as closely as the 2022 set with the same name (#60349). the key element here though is the little craft, which is a future shuttle in the same vein as #60224, and is... clearly worse, sorry. 🚀🚀

#75975 Watchpoint: Gibraltar/#76970: Tracer vs. Widowmaker

so, lego overwatch was a thing that happened. yeah. I don’t overwatch, but from what I’m told, these two sets are based on a map where one team’s job is to reunite the baby space shuttle with its mother and the other team is trying to stop them. I don’t know why you would try to stop that. it’s mean. anyway we have a matching pair of future shuttles here and I'm rating them together even though they’re separate sets because I don’t want to separate them and also because I don’t know what I’ll say if I have to talk about overwatch twice. the mother can apparently separate into two smaller shuttles and deploy guns or something, I don’t know. 🏇🏇🏇🏇🏇 <- the cavalry is here. and that’s the last remaining thing I know about overwatch.

#10283 NASA Space Shuttle Discovery (2021)

friendship ended with #7470. now #10283 is my new best friend.

seriously, this comes very close to being a perfect lego space shuttle. it’s got elevons you can control by sneakily rotating one of the engines. the rudder splits for airbraking. the landing gear automatically deploys but specifically doesn’t automatically retract because the real orbiter can’t actually do that. it has a two-story crew cabin. it has accurate doodads inside the cargo bay. of course there’s an updated hubble space telescope that’s also a million times nicer.

🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🛰🛰🛰🛰🛰

#10944 Space Shuttle Mission (2021)

wow, it took a long time for a duplo space shuttle to turn up. 👶 out of 👶.

#11016 Creative Building Bricks (2021)

siiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh I GUESS there are TECHNICALLY instructions in this big brick box to build that little black and white blob that’s TECHNICALLY supposed to be a space shuttle so TECHNICALLY it belongs on this list. 🧱🧱 okay bricks.

#31117 Space Shuttle Adventure (2021)

so aside from #10238 there had recently been a big fancy apollo 11 eagle lander and a big fancy saturn v rocket, and then suddenly lego released this 3-in-1 that can be built as a space shuttle, a rocket, or a lem. there’s no way this wasn’t intentionally the Recent Space Hits set. anyway this one’s a big improvement over #3100. it finally returns the elevons to minifig-scale shuttles, and not only does it have landing gear, but it’s retractable! on a minifig-scale shuttle! the oms pods are also unusually detailed for this size. the only real compromise for the sake of alt-models is the design of the canadarm, which lego space shuttles tend to take a lot of liberties with anyway. very good space shuttle, worthy successor to the best of city. 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀 incidentally this is also part of a subtle “stealth theme” in the creator 3-in-1 range that also includes a rover (#31107), a weird vtol (#31111), and a mech (#31115).

#11020 Build Together (2022)

stop making me rate these, lego. I know you’re putting instructions for these little shuttle-blobs in sets specifically because you knew I’d use that as criteria. make something actually space themed or shut up. 🧱

#11022 Space Mission (2022)

well played. 🧱🧱🧱

#SHUTTLE: Space Shuttle (2022)

is this meant to be a friends set? what’s going on here? ❓❓❓❓❓

#41713 Olivia’s Space Academy

the first space shuttle in the lego friends theme isn’t the top of the minifig-scale class (landing gear and elevons both should have been possible here imo), but it’s definitely a good one, and thanks to the way minidolls are designed, it’s also one of like two lego space shuttles ever that can seat two astronauts side by side. the satellite is unusually tiny for this scale, but in a way that looks intentional, like it’s meant to be a cubesat or something. takes clear inspiration from both city shuttles and #31117, and a worthy successor. and I love the pink. 🚀🚀🚀🚀

#31134 Space Shuttle (2023)

this is perhaps a little unfair since this set isn’t actually out yet, but here we have another mini-shuttle similar to the one from #31091. not great, but not bad considering it’s ten bucks. 🚀🚀🚀

Historic floods in Spain claim over 200 lives, marking the country's deadliest weather disaster in modern history.

The storm that devastated Spain's eastern coast unleashed a year's worth of rain in only eight hours. This catastrophe could become Europe’s most severe storm-related disaster in more than 50 years.

More than 200 people have lost their lives in Spain due to unprecedented floods that have devastated the region, making it the deadliest weather disaster in the country's modern history.

On Friday, Pope Francis extended his prayers for the victims and their families following the storm's destructive impact on the eastern coast of the Iberian Peninsula, particularly in the heavily affected region of Valencia.

“May the Lord support those who are suffering and those who are providing assistance. We stand in solidarity with the people of Valencia,” the pontiff said, referring to the area that endured the worst of the destruction.

Climate and Average Weather Year Round in 91304 Canoga Park CA:

https://www.behance.net/gallery/203784909/Weather-Forecast-For-91304-Canoga-Park-CA

At least 202 lives have been lost, primarily in Valencia, as reported by the town's Emergency Coordination Center. Three fatalities have been confirmed in Castilla La Mancha and Andalusia. Efforts to search for and identify victims are ongoing as of Friday.

The storm that devastated Spain's eastern coast released a year's worth of rain in just eight hours. The mountain town of Chiva, located west of Valencia, received an astonishing 19.33 inches of rain during that time, with some areas experiencing rainfall rates of up to 6.5 inches per hour.

In response to the disaster, over 500 soldiers have been dispatched to Valencia to aid survivors and search for those who are missing.

Thousands of volunteers from the region were mobilizing on Friday to assist with recovery efforts. In the town of Pinanya, hundreds of people used shovels and brooms to clear mud from the streets and buildings. Spanish rescuers established a temporary morgue in a convention center and faced challenges in reaching areas that remain isolated due to the floodwaters.

Weather Forecast For 45245 - Cincinnati OH:

Aerial footage captured from a military helicopter on Thursday revealed extensive flooding still affecting Valencia. The Spanish Air and Space Force reported that the footage was taken while the crew of an NH90 helicopter was on a six-and-a-half-hour rescue mission.

Spain's Military Emergency Unit (UME) crews were observed inspecting the damage and searching basement parking lots and buildings in Valencia throughout the night on Thursday, accompanied by trained dogs.

On Wednesday, a police officer had to use bedsheets to save his neighbor from being swept away by floodwaters in Valencia.

The Spanish National Police shared a video depicting cars submerged in the flood. In the footage, a woman is seen in the water, gripping sheets tied together to form a makeshift rope.

“Our colleague Daniel, who was off duty last night, managed to keep a neighbor afloat as she was being swept away by the current in Benetuser,” the police captioned the video. “Just moments earlier, he had saved another neighbor using a rope he fashioned from sheets.”

This disaster could become Europe's deadliest storm-related event in more than fifty years.

In 2021, heavy flooding in Germany resulted in at least 185 fatalities. Before that, 209 people died in Romania in 1970, and floods in Portugal in 1967 claimed nearly 500 lives.

rating lego space shuttles: 2010-2018

#9334 Space & Airport Set (2010)

this is another one of those huge education sets that have a million things in them and the one I’m looking for is a little background smudge. it looks vaguely like a space shuttle I guess.

#10213 Shuttle Adventure (2010)/#10231 Shuttle Expedition (2011)

okay so here’s what happened. during all that business with the near-future space stuff, the switch from town to city happened, and now city vehicles get to be bigger. thus we get this bigger, better minifig-scale space shuttle which clearly takes influence from #7470. the boosters are back and the fuel tank is finally properly colored, and not only is the shuttle better shaped than we’ve seen from city before, it’s a two-seater! marginally closer to reality! hooray!

and apparently it fell apart if you looked at it funny.

thus, in 2011, lego sold what appeared to be literally the exact same set again, but with some modifications to make it more stable (though it’s apparently still not super playable) and also apparently to make the landing gear stick out more. and they changed the astronauts' faces for some reason. look I don’t know. the whole situation is weird. it’s a very nice shuttle in any event. 🚀🚀🚀🚀 good for you, lego, fixing your mistakes.

#3367 Space Shuttle (2011)

lego was committed now, apparently, so also in 2011 we got a new space shuttle. while #10213/#10231 was shooting for realism, this one is more like the early-to-mid-nineties town space shuttles but bigger, which is pretty much exactly what we’ve come to expect from city. lego city finally has access to click-hinge technology, which we see on the cargo bay doors and which also finally supplies this shuttle with elevons, though in the latter case it’s by the method of having hinges blatantly stuck to the top of the wings, looking like an emergency improvisation a la flight of the phoenix. the specially molded aircraft cockpit looks nice, and while it has limited potential for use in non-space-shuttle constructions, we are not here to care about things that aren’t space shuttles. overall: solid. 🚀🚀🚀🚀

#20201: Micro-Scale (2011)/#5001273 Microbuild Designer & Robot Designer/#20216 Robot & Micro Designer (2013)

you call those wings? 🚀

this apparently existed in a couple of forms but I can’t figure out this lego master builder academy stuff.

#31001 Mini Skyflyer (2013)

that looks even less like a space shuttle than the last mini 3-in-1 build brickset told me was a space shuttle, and this time it doesn’t even look like much of a plane either. ✈

#40127 Space Shuttle (2015)

best tiny shuttle so far. 🚀🚀🚀🚀

#60078 Utility Shuttle (2015)

this is sort of an odd duck. 2015 was one of those years where lego did a full-on city space exploration subtheme, like in 1995, 1999 (bleh), and 2011, but this time they apparently decided they wanted a smaller pricepoint space shuttle. enter the utility shuttle, a weird made-up thing that’s basically a baby space shuttle. it’s really weird because overall this was one of the “realistic” space themes but this is totally a future shuttle complete with the angled fins. and no oms. it’s still fairly solid as future shuttles go but its placement in the range makes me scratch my head. 🚀🚀🚀 also aren’t all space shuttles utility shuttles?

#60080 Spaceport (2015)

here we can see where at least part of the impetus to make the utility shuttle came from: lego presumably wanted to recoup some of the cost of making the new cockpit piece for their new full-sized shuttle. while not as fancy as #10213/#10231, you can see their influence as well as that of #3367, and it comes across as essentially a combined remake taking the best aspects of both. very nice boosters and fuel tank, elevons with no need for the hinges to be stapled on, even properly angled engines. also this is the first proper space shuttle to take advantage of a new curved panel for the cargo bay doors (which was also on the utility shuttle). this is a good space shuttle. 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀

and that’s actually currently the most recent proper space shuttle in lego city! and possibly the last one ever, now that real life space programs have newer and shinier spaceships to recreate. don’t fret, though, there are a couple more future shuttles on the way, and more real space shuttles through other channels.

#60099 City Advent Calendar (2015)

cute shuttle! cute boosters and fuel tank! love them! 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀

#21312 Women of NASA (2017)/#21321 International Space Station (2020)

lego ideas is truly the gift that keeps on giving. a popular theme for proposals has been “let’s promote women in stem fields” and 20tauri’s project “women of nasa” was definitely one of the most successful, a set depicting, well, women who’ve been a big deal at nasa. two of them were space shuttle astronauts sally ride and mae jemison, so we got this very cute little space shuttle with all the fixings. this inspired user xcld to propose a new model of the international space station for the shuttle to service, which became another successful project. this second tiny shuttle is actually slightly tweaked from the first one, but as it’s substantially the same design, I decided to rate them together. and highly. 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀

the women of nasa set also happens to give us our second lego hubble space telescope.

#31066 Space Shuttle Explorer (2017)

what did I tell you? just because lego city is done with space shuttles doesn’t mean lego isn’t going to keep making them. that said, it’s hard not to see this one as a step down from the one in #60080. it’s not bad, but it loses the elevons, the second seat, and the landing gear. this is all in service of making it rebuild into two other completely different things, of course, but we’re just here for space shuttles. 🚀🚀🚀1/2

#60201 City Advent Calendar (2018)

nowhere near as good and cute as the 2015 one. 🚀🚀

#70923 The Bat-Space Shuttle (2018)

I think this is lego’s only future shuttle that has the fuel tank and srbs. anyway space shuttles fare way better in batman-land than ambulances did. I have no idea what batman actually uses this for but it’s hilarious. 🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇

and I’m going to cut this off here because holy shit, 2019.

Climate of Illinois

See Weather Forecast for Illinois today: https://weatherusa.app/illinois The geographical position and elongated north-south axis of Illinois result in significant regional temperature variations. Throughout the state, seasonal temperature fluctuations are pronounced, characterized by cold, snowy winters and hot summers, although the influence of Lake Michigan helps temper extremes. In the northern part of the state, mean winter temperatures hover around 22 °F (-6 °C), contrasting with around 37 °F (3 °C) in the south. Similarly, summer temperatures average at approximately 74 °F (23 °C) in the north and 80 °F (27 °C) in the south. Annual precipitation also exhibits a gradient, with around 34 inches (864 mm) in the north and 46 inches (1,170 mm) in the south. The length of the growing season varies across the state, ranging from 205 days in the south to 155 days in the northernmost counties.

Illinois boasts distinct vegetational regions, primarily characterized by the tallgrass prairie in the northern and central areas and the oak-hickory forest in the western and southern regions. However, only small remnants of the original tallgrass prairie remain, with some areas undergoing restoration efforts. Notably, the Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie, located near Joliet, stands as the largest restored prairie in the state.

Historically, before European settlers arrived in the 17th century, oak-hickory forests were prevalent even in the northern regions of Illinois. However, the settlers, driven by the need for wood for fuel, construction, and the lumbering industry, extensively cleared forests, resulting in a significant reduction of forest cover. Presently, approximately 6,200 square miles (16,000 square km) of forests remain in Illinois, with Shawnee National Forest accounting for around 1,100 square miles (2,800 square km) of them.

Due to its geographic length, Illinois exhibits a unique blend of Northern and Southern plant life. This diversity is evident in the wide array of wildflowers and trees found across the state. Species such as white pines, tamaracks, walnuts, cypresses, and tupelos thrive in Illinois, representing a rich tapestry of flora that contributes to the state's ecological heritage.

Before 1800, Illinois was teeming with abundant wildlife, populating the prairies and forests with iconic species like bison, bears, wolves, mountain lions (pumas), porcupines, and elk. However, due to human activities and habitat destruction, these once-thriving populations dwindled and disappeared. Deer, for instance, went extinct in 1910, but efforts by the state department of conservation in 1933 saw the reintroduction of small herds, leading to the establishment of a growing deer population. By the early 21st century, the number of white-tailed deer in Illinois had surged into the hundreds of thousands.

While some species have experienced successful reintroduction efforts, others, like coyotes and foxes, have adapted to survive in woodlands, natural areas, and increasingly, urban environments. Game birds such as quail and pheasant, though not as plentiful as in the past, still inhabit the region, while waterfowl populations thrive during spring and fall migrations.

However, pollution has taken its toll on aquatic life, nearly wiping out many species of fish. Despite this, bullheads, carp, catfish, white and yellow bass, and walleye continue to thrive in Illinois' waters, offering opportunities for fishing enthusiasts and serving as vital components of the state's ecosystem.

The optimal times to visit Illinois are typically from April to mid-May in the spring and from September to October in the fall. During these seasons, the weather is generally more agreeable compared to the extreme heat of summer and the cold of winter.

Spring offers pleasant temperatures and vibrant blooms, making it an ideal time for outdoor activities. However, late spring and early summer can be wet, with occasional thunderstorms and the risk of flooding.

Autumn in Illinois is characterized by colorful foliage, comfortable mornings, and breezy evenings, providing a picturesque backdrop for exploration.

Conversely, late fall sees temperatures dropping rapidly, accompanied by cold and windy conditions.

Summers in Illinois are often hot and humid, with large crowds and higher prices for attractions. Thus, visitors may find spring and fall to be more budget-friendly options.

Overall, visitors can enjoy lighter crowds, pleasant weather, and scenic beauty during the spring and fall months, making them the preferred times to explore Illinois.
