A storm was moving toward the Space Center Houston complex.

Originally I was hoping to bokeh out the background and leave the stop sign in focus, but it was impossible to do with this lens.

My family and I were heading to Wright Patterson Air Force Base on February 1, 2003 when I turned on the radio and heard the space shuttle Columbia did not show up on time to the landing site and that NASA had lost contact with the shuttle. I knew immediately what had happened.

We continued on the the Air Force Museum and everyone was in a fog about it. I stopped in the gift shop and got the only mission patch they had for this shuttle flight.

I felt the same grief as I did with Challenger. Go to the web link below to read about this great crew and their ship.

I am automatically taking a picture of Enterprise's move to the Intrepid. Please continue to check my photostream for new images. A new image uploads every minute!

I enhanced the vibrance of the colors and used the "Dreamy" filter in a new iPhone app called PhotoForge.

This is the 1/72nd scale 4D Vision shuttle I built to get me through the winter. It's snap together with no painting required...ideal for those times when you're stuck indoors.

A visit to the Challenger Learning Center is a learning experience that engages students, transforming them into scientists, engineers or researchers on a simulated space mission. It expands a classroom to distant planets; it turns learning into inspiration and students into explorers. The Museum has two Challenger Learning Centers - one at the main Museum, and one at The George Observatory in Brazos Bend State Park.
