3rd Rock Grid's Great Central Lake

When Estate Manager @JayR Cela invited me to see his 3x3 Water Region - Great Central Lake he mentioned how it is set up for boating fun and racing.

Please add this to your map: grid.3rdrockgrid.com:8002:Great Central Lake. Take some time out and explore this great place!

I have rebranded the grid to Three Hills Grid. When we first named the grid we thought to name it after the magazine and since then, I have seen another grid named Virtual Grid, so as to eliminate any confusion I thought it would be best to rename it. I have always thought of Black Hills Gold as Three Hills Gold (the trio color of the gold) so naming it Three Hills Grid seemed right. The virtual-hg.com address is the same, I may also change that in the future. https://virtual-hg.com/JOpensim/index.php

While the heart and soul of Virtual-HG magazine remain unchanged, this rebranding is a testament to my profound passion for crafting intricate jewelry pieces.

Ferd Frederix-BS News-Sunday Funnies hot off the press!! https://virtual-hg.com/JOpensim/index.php?option=com_conte... There is an inworld edition of the magazine you can pick up at the VHG HQ on the third floor.

A newly discovered supernova can be watched as it develops in real-time, online and for free.

This particular galaxy and supernova can be difficult to view in the night sky without the right conditions or telescope, however. Luckily, the Virtual Telescope Project will livestream the cosmic explosion on its website and YouTube channel as it develops via its power robotic telescopes based in Rome, Italy. The online event will kick off at 6:30 p.m. EDT (2230 GMT) on Friday, May 26 2023. Note that this event is weather dependent and could be delayed or cancelled due to poor conditions. https://www.space.com/new-supernova-pinwheel-galaxy-livest...

If you would like your Grid or Sim to be included in the VHG Gateway HUB-We have three available spots left. To be included please send a 1x1 OAR to m.monentes@gmail.com Your OAR should be themed to your Grid or Sim with information signage about your Grid or Sim with a teleport sign to your place.

Fred's Africa Gateway added to VHG Region HUB is so very cool, I love this so much and would like to extend an invitation to anyone who would like to add their Grid Gateway to my VHG region! It is a great way for others to get a taste of your grid or sim- Teleports on a sign is very cool but having a Gateway people can feel the ambiance of your grid. If you would like to add your gateway to my VHG region I would need a 1x1 OAR of your Gateway. When creating your gateway, choose your grid's theme, also add an information board of the highlights you have at your grid so that when people visit your gateway they get a sense of what you are all about! Please consider adding your gateway to the VHG HUB!

SkyRealm Observatory is a work in progress-please stop by anytime and see the transformation of this observatory. We are making progress, thank you to @FerdFrederix just wow! Also @JamieAnnaWright thank you for contributing to my clock collection!

virtual-hg.com:8002/SkyRealm/447/381/56

Thank you @FredBeckhusen for lending me a hand with the SkyRealm Observatory! Fred finished up the major parts of the OAR tonight and when creating the sim, I loved Darkness Papp's Rivendell surround and landscaping and thought the Observatory would fit nicely there, so I merged the two and did a bit of arranging to combine the two. I still have tweaking to do but we are getting closer~Thank you!!

Skyrealm Observatory is a work in progress. @FerdFrederix is giving me a hand with building this project. I showed him my Observatory Model and he explained it could be greatly improved with Blender modifiers like the edge modifier. It will take some time to complete it is a huge build. Thank you, Ferd for teaching me about the blender modifiers and what can be achieved, just wow!

@RhysTaylor is a brilliant astronomer whom I recently interviewed. Imagine being able to ask any question you would like about the cosmos, yes I did ask about ET
https://virtual-hg.com/JOpensim/index.php?option=com_conte...
My hope is one day he will build an Observatory here in Opensim and share with us all that he has learned.

As promised I wrote a tutorial on what I use to create 3d clothing. Whenever I learn something I have always been open and shared it with anyone who asked and also through tutorials seen at Hypergrid Business: https://www.hypergridbusiness.com/author/marianna-monentes...

This helps to build a supportive and collaborative community where everyone can learn and grow together. Sharing knowledge and skills can lead to new ideas, innovations, and collaborations, which can benefit everyone involved. I know this, I hope you know it too.
