Museum of Flight, Boeing Field - NASA Full Fuselage Trainer is a full-scale mockup of the space shuttle orbiter — without the wings. It was used as a test bed for upgrades to the shuttle fleet and for astronaut training such as extra-vehicular activity (EVA) and emergency egress.

Aunque caiga , me vuelvo a parar y mientras mas me jodas mas fuerte me vuelvo nunca parare eso escribelo !
Growing up as a child I grew an admiration for what our Space program was about and most of all; fell in love with the "Space Shuttle". I have been to my share of launches form Titusville and even some from the NASA Causeway but I can't say enough about what you are looking at....A piece of the greatest Space odyssey so far in history. Seeing this up close was somewhat overwhelming for me but truly touching. You will be missed Atlantis!!!!!

At Kennedy Space Center in Florida Space shuttle Endeavour, now attached to Shuttle Carrier Aircraft 905, is pushed back from the Mate-Demate device at the Shuttle Landing Facility.
Fun angle pictures while I was waiting on my kids riding the ride. I think this is my favorite pic of Mission Space, I only wish it had been sunset.
shudehill, manchester. work of the wonderful street artist, space invader.

SpaceEngine - A free space simulation program that lets you explore the universe in three dimensions, from planet Earth to the most distant galaxies. Areas of the known universe are represented using actual astronomical data, while regions uncharted by astronomy are generated procedurally. Millions of galaxies, trillions of stars, countless planets - all available for exploration. You can land any planet, moon or asteroid and watch alien landscapes and celestial phenomena. You can even pilot starships and atmospheric shuttles.

The Space Shuttle Discovery's final flight: a journey over DC on 17 April 2012, part of the retirement of the Shuttle program which entails DC receiving Discovery and our current Enterprise (a prototype which never flew into space) to be transferred to NYC in a couple months.
It was EPIC. I've never seen so many people on the rooftops of DC. I managed to fall as I sprinted from the east to west side of the Washington Monument, but did a perfect roll and came up kneeling & shooting photos... I felt very deft, other than the tripping in the first place.
Also, if NASA equipped that fighter pilot with a camera I will send them a paycheck.
In SPACE at Eldon Building, University of Portsmouth.
The SPACE gallery was host to the international artist Pete Codling who creatied a giant charcoal drawing directly on the gallery wall. The building, currently being demolished in the next 2 weeks along with this final artwork, was actually Codling’s old studio space when he was a student at Portsmouth College of Art in the late 1980s.
This ‘charcoal epitaph’ is a personal way for the artist to say good bye to the building but also to celebrate the creativity of many artists, designers and musicians who have used this space over the last fifty years.

MACDILL AIR FORCE BASE, Fla. -- Airman 1st Class Jesse Flagle, a 45th Civil Engineer Squadron firefighter from Patrick Air Force Base, Fla., is lowered into a manhole during confined space rescue training here Aug. 8, 2012. Confined space training is a component of the rescue technician course at MacDill. Firefighters selected for the course had to meet the minimum certifications of Firefighter I/II, Emergency Medical Responder with CPR, and demonstrate technical abilities.

The Cassini spacecraft captures eight new propeller-like features within
Saturn's A ring in what may be the propeller "hot zone" of Saturn's rings.
Propeller features form around small moonlets that are not massive enough
to clear out ring material, but are still able to pull smaller ring
particles into a shape reminiscent of an airplane propeller. Scientists
believe that propellers represent moonlet wakes, which are denser than the
surrounding ring material and appear bright in the images.
Propellers were first discovered in Cassini images taken during Saturn
orbit insertion in 2004. This new image is from a more extensive study of
the full A ring and provides evidence that these features are not
distributed evenly as previously thought, but are instead grouped in a
3,000 kilometer-wide (1,860 mile) propeller belt.
This image shows four new propellers and was put together from images in
the Planetary Data System, a web site which archives and distributes
scientific data from NASA planetary missions. The largest propeller seen
here is noted in the white dashed box, and it indicates the presence of a
150-meter (490-foot) moonlet. The size is inferred from the radial
separation of the propeller wings. The propeller is seen in another image
and is shown in the upper left box. The reappearance of the propellers
clearly demonstrates the orbital motion of the propellers. The region
enclosed in the red box is zoomed and shown in the top panel of PIA10080.
Three additional propellers are noted with white dashed circles on the
right. Very bright and round spots are artifacts. But some of the bright
elongated and non-saturated streaks could be smaller propellers that are
not resolved in the image.
This view is made up of two images from a set of 26 images with a complete
radial coverage of the A ring and part of the Cassini division taken
during an occultation of the star Antares (alpha Scorpii; brightest spot
on top) on Aug. 20, 2005.
In this clear filter image, the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera
observed the unlit side of the rings, with a phase angle of 126 degrees.
The images were taken at 1 minute intervals with 0.05 seconds exposure
time. Image resolution is 1 kilometer (0.6 miles) per pixel.
The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the European
Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory,
a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages
the mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington, D.C. The
Cassini orbiter was designed, developed and assembled at JPL.
