H.E. Row Implement Company, 114-122 East 5th Street, Larned, Kansas. Both of these buildings appear vacant. Isaiah D. Row joined the Larned Implement Company in 1916 and became its president. I assume H.E. Row was one of his descendents.
The Emerson-Newton Implement Company Building is located in downtown Minneapolis, MN.
The building is united under a common cornice with the Advance Thresher Building and appears to be a single structure.
The Emerson-Newton Building (on the right) was built in 1904 and has seven floors. The Advance Thresher Building (on the left) was built in 1900 and has six floors.
The architecture of the buildings was influenced by Louis Sullivan and are decorated with terra cotta details.

The Sears, Roebuck and Company Department Store in Miami, Florida is an Art Deco building built in 1929 for Sears, Roebuck and Company. The building was the first known implementation of Art Deco architecture in the county and was spectacular. It was followed a year later by the Shrine Building (Miami, Florida), an application of Art Deco with local Seminole Indian motifs added as an interesting twist. Both were covered in a 1988 study of Downtown Miami historic resources but were not NRHP-listed due to owner objections at the time. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on August 8, 1997. The building features a seven-story Art Deco tower which is the only part of the building that currently remains.
After the area's drastic decline in the early 1980s, the building's intense structural decay, and declining sales, the store closed for good in 1983. The building remained vacant and abandoned and was the subject to graffiti and vandalism. Sears was unable to sell the property, and it donated the site to Dade County in 1992. That same year, the Sears signs were removed.
The building listing was added to the National Register on August 8, 1997. By 2001, the only surviving part of the original structure was a seven-story tower. The original department store space had been demolished. The tower was preserved and incorporated it into the new Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts, built in 2006.
The Sears building at one point absorbed a former Burdines department store. The Art Deco building was constructed in 1929, predating the Art Deco hotels on Ocean Drive in Miami Beach.

Treasures of the Soil & Architectural Gems
From ruin to gem: Sisi chapel At Heaven
By Werner Grotte
On the occasion of the wedding of Emperor Franz Josef and his Sisi built baron Carl Freiherr von Sothen 1854 here in the middle of Vienna Woods a memorial. The so-called "Sisi chapel" for many decades was considered a romantic destination just outside of the city. After the Second World War, the Döblinger gem but decayed increasingly and in 1975 it narrowly escaped demolition. Well, just for its 150th birthday, it shines externally in its former glory again. Internally, however, almost nothing reminds of the original purpose.
In fact, only a decision of the Office for Protection of Historical Monuments saved the chapel from demolition in 1975 but this was not an obstacle for further decay. "It was a shame: the desolate ruins were boarded up, 'decorated' with satanic expressions, broken glass and trash - the collapse was only a question of a short period of time," recalls Gerhard Heilingbrunner from the "Board of Trustees Forest".
Without further ado, he decided in 2002 to raise the necessary funds, bought the property and started an ambitious redevelopment plan: exactly on its 150th birthday, the chapel should be completely renovated and purely externally comply with the strict standards of preservationists. The Urban Renewal Funds for this held out in prospect 475,000 euros, the rest of the for this necessary 300,000 euros organized the "Board of Trustees" by an own fundraising.
These were mainly intended for decoration of the room inside, because the sacred furnishings had long since been vandalized or brought to safety. The original altarpiece of Leopold Kupelwieser, for example, already at the beginning of outbreak of war has been brought to safety and now restored it can be visited in the Vienna Diocesan Museum.
Gothic Revival and video wall
The historic preservation work has been implemented with great attention to detail: the stone masons, for example, have been included in the moving of the complex of stairs towards the porch of the chapel, in the interior, the ring of stones as well as at the exit to the crypt. Then there was the laying of the stone slabs in the porch and the putting up of the partially still stemming from 1856 stone pillars at the outside stairs.
On these ones then an adapted from the original staircase railing made of cast iron was mounted. The external paintwork is also already completely finished, the interior is provided with new plaster, stucco and painting. Currently, in the area Heaven's street corner Hill Street still excavations take place, to establish the 600 meter distance to water, electricity and telephone cable.
For in the future the inside of the chapel probably will be mind-expanding, but by no means sacred: A glazed roof will allow a lookout directly into the real heaven, 14 into the walls recessed flat screens the visitor should convey by an own audi visual concept unique insights into the human-nature relationship.
In order to protect the valuable complex henceforth from vandals and thieves, the new, generously dimensioned windows and the entrance doors have been provided with bulletproof glass. "In combination with the surrounding nature and the ancient trees around it, a very special atmospherical impression for the visitor is guaranteed," said Heilingbrunner. For the opening in May 2005, he is also planning something special, "a traditional Fair Day on Ascension Day for the population - with walk, open-air mass, music, shooting gallery, fresh food, wine and fizzy pop; completely without cars, without chemicals and without Kitsch".

Von der Ruine zum Kleinod: Sisi-Kapelle am Himmel
Von Werner Grotte
Anlässlich der Hochzeit des Kaisers Franz Josef mit seiner Sisi errichtete Baron Carl Freiherr von Sothen 1854 hier, mitten im Wienerwald, eine Gedenkstätte. Die sogenannte "Sisi Kapelle" galt über viele Jahrzehnte als romantisches Ausflugsziel vor den Toren der Stadt. Nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg verfiel das Döblinger Kleinod allerdings zunehmend und entging 1975 nur knapp dem Abriss. Nun, genau zu ihrem 150. Geburtstag, erstrahlt sie rein äußerlich wieder in altem Glanz. Innen erinnert allerdings fast nichts mehr an den ursprünglichen Zweck.
Tatsächlich rettete nur ein Denkmalamts-Beschluss die Kapelle vor dem Abbruch 1975, was allerdings kein Hindernis für den weiteren Verfall war. "Es war eine Schande: Das desolate Gemäuer war mit Brettern vernagelt, mit satanistischen Sprüchen, Scherben und Müll 'verziert' - der Zusammenbruch war nur noch eine Frage kurzer Zeit", erinnert sich Gerhard Heilingbrunner vom "Kuratorium Wald".
Kurz entschlossen trieb er 2002 die nötigen Mittel auf, kaufte das Objekt und startete einen ehrgeizigen Sanierungsplan: Genau zum 150. Geburtstag sollte die Kapelle fertig saniert sein und rein äußerlich den strengen Maßstäben der Denkmalschützer entsprechen. Der Altstadtsanierungsfonds stellt dafür 475.000 Euro in Aussicht, die restlichen dafür nötigen 300.000 Euro organisierte das "Kuratorium" durch eine eigene Spendenaktion.
Diese waren vor allem zur Ausgestaltung des Innenraumes vorgesehen, denn die sakralen Einrichtungsgegenstände waren längst devastiert oder in Sicherheit gebracht worden. Das ursprüngliche Altarbild von Leopold Kupelwieser etwa wurde bereits zu Kriegsbeginn in Sicherheit gebracht und ist heute restauriert im Wiener Diözesanmuseum zu besichtigen.
Neugotik und Videowand
Die denkmalpflegerischen Arbeiten wurden mit viel Liebe zum Detail umgesetzt: Die Steinmetze etwa kamen beim Versetzen der Stufenanlagen zur Vorhalle der Kapelle, im Innenraum, am Steinkranz sowie am Abgang zur Krypta zum Zug. Dazu kam das Verlegen der Steinplatten in der Vorhalle und das Aufstellen der teilweise noch aus 1856 stammenden Steinpfeiler an der Außenstiege.
An diesen wurde dann ein dem Original nachempfundenes Stiegengeländer aus Gusseisen montiert. Der Außenanstrich ist ebenfalls bereits komplett fertiggestellt, der Innenraum ist mit neuem Putz, Stuck und Anstrich versehen. Derzeit finden im Bereich Himmelstraße Ecke Höhenstraße noch Grabungen statt, um die 600 Meter Distanz zur Wasser-, Strom- und Telefonzuleitung herzustellen.
Denn das künftige Innenleben der Kapelle wird wohl bewußtseinserweiternd, aber keineswegs sakral sein: Ein gläsernes Dach wird Ausblick direkt in den wirklichen Himmel gewähren, 14 in die Wände versenkte Flachbildschirme sollen dem Besucher durch ein eigenes audivisuelles Konzept einzigartige Einblicke in die Mensch-Natur-Beziehung vermitteln.
Um die wertvolle Anlage künftig vor Vandalen und Dieben zu schützen, hat man die neuen, großzügig dimensionierten Fenster und die Eingangstüren mit Panzerglas versehen. "In Kombination mit der umgebenden Natur und dem uralten Baumbestand rundherum ist ein ganz besonderes Stimmungserlebnis für den Besucher garantiert", erklärt Heilingbrunner. Für die Eröffnung im Mai 2005 plant er auch etwas Besonderes: "Einen traditionellen Kirchtag zu Christi Himmelfahrt für die Bevölkerung - mit Fußmarsch, Feldmesse, Musik, Schießbude, frischem Essen, Wein und Kracherl; ganz ohne Autos, ohne Chemie und ohne Kitsch".

Dice are implements used for generating random numbers in a variety of social and gambling games. Known since antiquity, dice have been called the oldest gaming instruments. They are typically cube-shaped and marked with one to six dots on each face. The most common method of dice manufacture involves injection molding of plastic followed by painting.
Dice have been used for gaming and divination purposes for thousands of years. Evidence found in Egyptian tombs has suggested that this civilization used them as early as 2000 b.c. Other data shows that primitive civilizations throughout the Americas also used dice. These dice were composed of ankle bones from various animals. Marked on four faces, they were likely used as magical devices that could predict the future. The ancient Greeks and Romans used dice made of bone and ivory. The dice of most of these early cultures were made in numerous shapes and sizes.
The modern day cubical dice originated in China and have been dated back as early as 600 b.c. They were most likely introduced to Europe by Marco Polo during the fourteenth century.

Commentary.
This verdant gem tucked away in the back-slope of Leith Hill always impresses me.
The old hammer-pond is a remnant of a medieval iron industry.
One of the tributaries of the River Tillingbourne was dammed in the 16th. Century.
The fall of water created working forge-hammers that shaped the smelted iron into farm implements, fences, gates, tools, weapons, cannons and cannon balls.
The iron was found in the local rock, Lower Greensand.
The industry faded here, when cheaper, more plentiful supplies of iron was discovered in various parts of Central and Northern England.
However, it can still be seen to this day.
On many local buildings ironstone has been built into the mortar to both strengthen and decorate it.
Today, the industry and noise has gone.
This place has become a beautiful and peaceful haven of tranquillity.
Surrounded by the Surrey Hills, pine plantations and endless banks of deciduous Beech, Ash, Oak and Sweet Chestnut it offers sumptuous and splendid reflections in the clear and still Spring-Water in all seasons.
Edged by the water-irises, sedges and rushes these and other
water-side plants give shelter to Moorhens, Coots and Mallard Ducks.
Only the fall of water from a sluice-gate into the valley below
breaks the serene and lingering silence of this
special beauty-spot in the heart of Surrey.

I'd say at least 7,000 vehicles were licensed in `45 Colorado. I grabbed a tighter shot of this implement at Mac. Last licensed in 1945, it surely is a clue as to why our US infrastructure, roads and bridges have been destroyed; well, that and the righties. I am using a McIntosh Ag Museum shot to finish a rust belt series by adding more rust and weeds. There is a lot more rust to come on this. This certainly is a fitting title for this image. This machinery is for the ages, the iron ages! This is some kind of wierd plowing implement, it must be an older iron implement and possibly horse-drawn but probably not in 1945. I see some rust on it. It had to be iron heavy in order to be able to "bite" into the soil. I ought to go again and figure out the exact function but who knows. I'd surely like to see some of the implements in operation. Some parts MAY be discombobulated.
This June found a return to hot temperatures. Wundermaps reported 101 degrees while I was out there. Whew! The direct sun blazed across the scene. I decided that I had missed some shots at McIntosh and went out in the baking sun. We are still here at the end of September waiting for autumn, cool temperatures denied by Fossilized climate destruction.
Highway #66 was overloaded with early summer travelers to the hills, probably not knowing summer might not arrive until July in the Rockies. They were still dumping a lot of snow into the rivers yet there are plenty of folks willing to jump in and drown. Fine by me although social news and media seems to whine!

The yellow implement is a Caterpillar bulldozer. The red item is a hay bailer. The barn, well it has seen it better days. NE Kansas, USA.
With it now 5 months since lockdown restrictions were implemented due to COVID-19, airlines are very slowly starting to see demand returning although this maybe scuppered in part due to spikes in cases being reported.
British Airways unsurprisingly has been affected by COVID-19 which has seen the premature withdrawal of their entire Boeing 747-400 fleet as well as the solitary Airbus A318 no longer in use following the cancellation of their unique London City to New York-John F. Kennedy flight.
The saving grace has been cargo which has seen select Boeing 777-200ERs seeing their World Traveller seats removed for more cargo capacity, as well as their Boeing 777-200ER/300ERs, Boeing 787-8/9/10s and Airbus A350-1000s providing the lion-share of long-haul flights, with Boeing 787-8s making appearances on European short-haul flights in order to ensure social distancing is complied with.
Very recently, British Airways has published its upcoming W20 schedule which sees considerable amount of changes, taking into consideration Boeing 747-400s no longer form their long-haul network and London Gatwick long-haul flights slowly being reinstated.
Given the huge amount of changes, this will be split into three separate posts...
As per Airline Route, here are the following changes which are heavily subject to change effective 26th October 2020 unless stated otherwise:
-Abu Dhabi: Daily flight (BA72/73) cancelled throughout the entire W20 schedule.
-Atlanta (Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta): BA226/227 reduced from daily to 4 weekly flights, retaining Boeing 787-9s.
-Austin-Bergstrom: BA190/191 remains daily, with 5 weekly flights operated by Airbus A350-1000s and 2 weekly flights operated by Boeing 777-300ERs.
-Bahrain then Dammam: BA124/125 reduced reduced from daily to 5 weekly flights, with Boeing 787-8s replacing Boeing 777-200ER operation. Section between Bahrain and Dammam has been cancelled.
-Baltimore/Washington: BA228/229 reduced from daily to 4 weekly flights, utilising Boeing 787-8/9s.
-Bangkok-Suvarnabhumi: BA9/10 continues to operate daily, 3-class Boeing 777-200ERs replaced by Boeing 78-9s.
-Beijing-Daxing: BA38/39 remains daily, Boeing 787-9s replaced by Boeing 777-300ERs.
-Bengaluru: BA118/119 reduced from daily to 5 weekly flights, 3-class Boeing 777-200ERs replaced by Airbus A350-1000s.
-Boston-Logan: Substantial changes sees 25 weekly flights cut to 14 weekly or twice daily flights. 4 times weekly BA202/203 and daily BA238/239 have been cancelled. BA212/213 utilises Boeing 787-9s replacing Boeing 747-400s, and BA214/215 utilises Airbus A350-1000s replacing 4-class Boeing 777-200ERs.
-Buenos Aires-Ezeiza: BA244/245 reduced from daily to 5 weekly flights, Boeing 787-8s replaces 3-class Boeing 777-200ERs.
-Cape Town: BA58/59 remains daily utilising Boeing 777-300ERs instead of Boeing 747-400s. BA42/43 continues to show Boeing 747-400s but is expected to be cancelled.
-Chennai: BA35/36 reduced from daily to 5 weekly flights utilising Boeing 787-8/9s.
-Chicago-O'Hare: Remains twice daily; BA294/295 utilises Boeing 787-9s instead of Boeing 747-400s, and BA296/297 utilising 3-class Boeing 777-200ERs instead of 4-class Boeing 777-200ERs.
-Dallas-Fort Worth: BA192/193 continues to operate daily utilising Boeing 787-9s instead of Boeing 747-400s.
-Delhi-Indira Ghandi: Remains twice daily, BA142/143 utilises Boeing 787-8s instead of Boeing 787-9s, and BA256/257 utilises 3-class Boeing 777-200ERs instead of 4-class Boeing 777-200ERs.
-Denver: BA218/219 remains daily utilising Boeing 787-9s instead of Boeing 747-400s.
-Dubai-International: Reduced from thrice to twice daily with the cancellation of BA108/109. BA104/105 utilises Boeing 787-9s instead of 4-class Boeing 777-200ERs, and BA106/107 initially operated by 3-class Boeing 777-200ERs until 31st December 2020, going over to Boeing 787-9 operation from 1st January 2021.
-Durban: Thrice weekly BA40/41 cancelled.
-Hong Kong-Chek Lap Kok: Reduced from twice daily to single daily with BA31/32 cancelled. BA27/28 remains operated by Boeing 777-300ERs.

-Islamabad: BA260/261 operates daily instead of thrice weekly utilising Boeing 787-8s.
-Jeddah-King Abdulaziz: 5 times weekly BA132/133 cancelled until 14th December 2020.
-Kuala Lumpur-Sepang: BA34/35 continues to operate daily utilising Boeing 787-8s instead of Boeing 787-9s.
The changes are noticeable, especially those which featured multiple frequencies having had around 50% slashed off as British Airways does not expect demand to return for the next 2-3 years.
Currently, British Airways operates 32 Boeing 787s, which includes 12 Boeing 787-8s (one currently in short-term storage), 18 Boeing 787-9s (one in long-term storage awaiting new Rolls-Royce engines) and 2 Boeing 787-10s. British Airways have 10 Boeing 787-10s on-order.

During the depression, money was hard to come by, and most people had to barter (trade) what goods and services they might have to get food and survive. Building materials back then were commonly Wood products, as metals were expensive, and later used in WW-II.
This was a typical shed/building that was built and used in the 40's-50's to store farm tractors and implements to keep them out of the weather and provide a comfortable place to work and do repairs.
Many of these old building have been left to the elements and have or are falling down. This one is still in fairly good condition, and was found along side the highway ;-}}

In the late 1960s, around the time the Transport Act of 1968 was being implemented along with various PTAs and PTEs, there was a flurry of activity in Liverpool, backed by the City Council, to develop a transport strategy for the city and the soon to be formed Metropolitan County of Merseyside. One key component of this was the development of sections of underground railways in Liverpool city centre that was designed to utilise existing, mostly third rail electrified, railways that would allow for two main outcomes.
Firstly, better penetration of the central area than the existing lines could offer - most notably in the case of Exchange station that was arguably on the northern fringe of the centre by building the 'Link' line from Moorfields through Central and on to the Garston lines. This cleverly made use of some tunnel sections that the 'Loop' line would free up as we shall see.
Secondly to improve capacity on the existing 'Wirral lines' that, using the original Mersey railway tunnel, terminated in a reversing tunnel at Central station. This was to be achieved by a single line 'loop' via Moorfields, Lime St and back to Central, that allowed 'through running' as well as better connections and that was complemented by a new birrowing junction to segregate the running lines under Birkenhead at Hamilton Square.
Backed by the DoE and the PTE the British Railways Board undertook the works for both schemes and work started in c1972 and mostly completed by 1977. Sadly, two other components of the wider scheme, the Edge Hill spur and the Outer Loop railway, were cancelled leaving just the third rail operated Wirral and Northern lines of today - with the City line out on something of a limb in many senses.
The network created by these works has been expanded, with some extensions and new stations, although some of the wider ambitions seen in these three publications are still discussed to this day.
This is the 'glossy' "Merseyside's new railways" that is undated but that I suspect I picked up c1975. Nor only does it show the main components of the scheme but it also, interestingly, gives some indication of the look and feel of the new tunnelled underground stations and platforms, along with an appearance of potential new rolling stock that looks a bit like the BR "PEP prototype units. The propsoed architectural finishes are very 'of their time' but show possible use of BR's 'corporate identity' in new sub-surface stations.
This leaflet was issued by BR and Merseyside Transport.

When Peugeot introduced the 908 HDi Le Mans car, it didn't feature much in the way of technical innovations or interesting rule interpretations. However, one interesting feature of the car was it's remarkably thin rear wing. The wing's leading edge was razor thin and as far as engineering execution went, it was arguably the only part of the car they could make better than Audi. Although this small innovation wasn't marketed, advertised, or bolstered by Peugeot because it would never be used on a road car, it quietly being a staple of Peugeot's motorsport effort. The same wing would be used again on the 908 HDi's 2011 successor, the 908, and was the only part of the car other than the windshield to be reused. When Peugeot closed the doors on its Le Mans program at the end of 2011, the wing still hadn't seen its last use. It was implemented again in 2013, where it featured on Sebastian Loeb's Pikes Peak record smashing 208 T16.

The focal point of the Deir el-Bahari complex is the Djeser-Djeseru meaning "the Holy of Holies", the Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut. It is a colonnaded structure, which was designed and implemented by Senenmut, royal steward and architect of Hatshepsut (and believed by some to be her lover), to serve for her posthumous worship and to honor the glory of Amun.
Djeser-Djeseru sits atop a series of colonnaded terraces, reached by long ramps that once were graced with gardens. It is built into a cliff face that rises sharply above it, and is largely considered to be one of the "incomparable monuments of ancient Egypt". It is 97 feet (30 m) tall.
The unusual form of Hatshepsut's temple is explained by the choice of location, in the valley basin of Deir el-Bahari, surrounded by steep cliffs. It was here, in about 2050 BC, that Mentuhotep II, the founder of the Middle Kingdom, laid out his sloping, terrace-shaped mortuary temple. The pillared galleries at either side of the central ramp of the Djeser Djeseru correspond to the pillar positions on two successive levels of the Temple of Mentuhotep.
Today the terraces of Deir el-Bahari only convey a faint impression of the original intentions of Senenmut. Most of the statue ornaments are missing - the statues of Osiris in front of the pillars of the upper colonnade, the sphinx avenues in front of the court, and the standing, sitting, and kneeling figures of Hatshepsut; these were destroyed in a posthumous condemnation of this pharaoh. The architecture of the temple has been considerably altered as a result of misguided reconstruction in the early twentieth century A.D.
In the late 1960s, around the time the Transport Act of 1968 was being implemented along with various PTAs and PTEs, there was a flurry of activity in Liverpool, backed by the City Council, to develop a transport strategy for the city and the soon to be formed Metropolitan County of Merseyside.

Sadly, two other components of the wider scheme, the Edge Hill spur and the Outer Loop railway, were cancelled leaving just the third rail operated Wirral and Northern lines of today - with the City line out on something of a limb in many senses.
The network created by these works has been expanded, with some extensions and new stations, although some of the wider ambitions seen in these three publications are still discussed to this day.
The third publication is a typewritten information sheet issued by British Rail on the Liverpool Mersey Railway scheme and the Construction of the Link Line. Undated it appears to have been issued around 1975 and I have included the pages and map on "other third rail electrification schemes under consideration" - these being within Merseyside as well as looking at connections north and west, to Wigan and towards Warrington, as well as south to Chester and Wrexham. Many of these schemes have had many proposals, discussions, delays and cancellations since this document was produced. Admittedly, some of the western proposals have seen improvements by the slow expansion fo 25kv AC overhead electrification, but others...
The final product:
- A search which returns ALL items.
- Example of a page that shows best-bets (inside the blue box).
- A record display page. When viewing a specific record, thumbnail images of neighbouring records are shown.
There are a couple of issues with the final implementation but it's a good product.
Essentials all three! I was slow to recognize the significance of this group out at McIntosh Heritage Center. Now, these would surely have been heavily used by a dairying operation. These may rise to the highest importance implements on a farm. Barnyard cleanup. These are designed for simple hand use to assisted horse or tractor use for 'mucking." No wonder why manure spreaders were prevalent around the farm. Animal husbandry aside, Far too little attention is paid to soil husbandry. That is really the basis.
I was at McIntosh Ag Museum again for my windmill agriculture shot and saw this but the title for this image only came after I opened the file and figured what it was. This machinery is for the ages, the Iron or Dark ages! I should be able to spot some rust on it. I really need to get really close in on this and do a texture detail of the rust. I have a lot of close up gear I seldom use. It had to be iron heavy in order to be able to "bite" into the soil. It looked like a single row plow. Single row implements took some serious time to work a field, one row at a time. Manual labor for sure.
Highway #66 was already overloaded with spring travelers to the hills, hoping for heat relief in the Rockies. Some of us are slower to take the hint. Only the cow trail of snow remains up on Mount Meeker.

An excellent view of Space Shuttle mockup "Inspiration" - along with Apollo 14 Command Module "Kitty Hawk" - on display in the Design Engineering Implementation (DEI) room of Rockwell International's Downey plant.
An excellent observation of this particular mockup design, per the "JACQMANS SPACEFLIGHT HISTORY" website:
"As you can see...the mockup still has the original design concept for the OMS engines, i.e. a fairing for the OMS pods extended onto the aft payload bay doors. This design was abandoned very early in the development phase and the pods were designed to be fully self contained and located aft of the payload bay doors. And also the forward RSC thrusters are protected by doors."
Additionally, note the mural behind, and to either side of the orbiter, by Rockwell International’s eminently talented artist, Ted Brown. The work is a larger variant of his masterpiece, “Space Products”, which at one time (but no longer?), was prominently displayed in the Launch Control Center (LCC), Kennedy Space Center (KSC).
