A NASA aircraft that astronauts used to learn how to land from orbit has touched down on display at the Alabama home of U.S. Space Camp, in the shadow of a winged orbiter like the type it emulated in flight.

 

NASA 945, one of four Grumman Gulfstream II business jets that were modified to become Shuttle Training Aircraft (STA), was dedicated in 2017 in the Shuttle Park at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville. The STA is mounted behind Pathfinder, a full-scale display of a space shuttle in its launch configuration.

The authentic orbiter Pathfinder used for testing purposes during the Shuttle development program. Pathfinder sits on an external fuel tank (orange) and two solid rocket boosters.

Taken on 6/30/06. This is a really horrible picture of the shuttle illuminated by a massive array of Xenon lights.

TOC Water Supply Kit Bag

Potable water is limited on the International Space Station. To ensure astronauts have a suitable amount of drinking water, wastewater is reclaimed and purified for re-use. Test kits are used to measure the total organic carbon (TOC) levels in the station's water supply. TOC is a measure of water quality.

This fully-automatic Sowiet Space Shuttle prototype was developed from the 70s onwards and lifted off successfully in 1987. Exhibited at the Speyer Technikmuseum (Germany)
