From Jan. 31 to Oct. 26, 1977, the first test Space Shuttle, the Enterprise, used a Boeing 747, modified by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration as a Shuttle Carrier Aircraft, to take it to the upper atmosphere for the approach and landing test program.

Walking up Prairie Ave. to the Great Western Forum...Do we see something through the trees? Yes!

The Explorer, not a real one, but a reasonably convincing fake on the outside.

The space shuttle going up over my trailer

Nice little thrift store find. The ET and SRBs are plastic and the sharpener is in the base.

Discovery, 2/24/2011

The Vehicle Assembly Building is 525 feet tall and is where the orbiter, SRBs and external fuel tank are mated prior to being rolled out to the pad. It was originally built and used for Apollo.

After the launch

There was lightning all around the launch site, so this was as close as we could get to the shuttle.
