US Navy Hits Satellite with SM-3 Missile 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Go Navy! Great job to the crew of the USS Lake Erie (CG-70) for nailing a satellite overnight with an SM-3 missile. Talk about a proverbial needle in a haystack traveling at over 17,000 mph!

In honor of the strike, here's a widescreen wallpaper of the actual missile launch released today.

Planet Mercury 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Consider this another freebie. I've taken a black and white photo of the planet Mercury, cropped it off-center, colorized it red, and pumped up the contrast.

I like it... do you?

What a shot. Here's an F/A-18F Super Hornet getting a cat shot off the carrier. Probably the best ride in the Navy...

Formation Flight Over Key West Florida with USAF and USN Aircraft

Great shot of an F-15C, F-16C, F/A-18C and F-14A ("Black Bunny") in formation near Key West Florida.

Had a great time in Disneyworld. :) You guys should definitely check out the new ride called "Soarin'". It was amazing though the lines are insane (90 minutes+) so get there early and get a fast pass.

USAF and USN Aircraft Formation Flight 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Nice formation shot of an F-16, F-15C, F-15E, and an EA-6B. That would be one heck of a strike package! F-16 and F-15 provide air cover, F-15E's do ground strikes, and the EA-6B providing EW cover. Sweet!

FYI, I'm out of town tomorrow night. Be back late Sunday. Going to Disneyworld in Orlando! Never been so I hope it's good...
