Space Shuttle Endeavour SF Flyover

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

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

South Lake shopping district, seen from the parking lot. This view looking to the South.

The Space Shuttle Endeavor flew over Houston, Texas on September 19, 2012 one last time before arriving at its final home in California. These pictures are from Johnson Space Center and Ellington Field.

At Udvar-Hazy Center

Like the Enterprise (see D.C. photoset), the Pathfinder never flew.

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

Very very hard to photograph and this was the best I could do... the speed through the sky meant that my tripod was still wobbling from the mirror movement as the ISS and shuttle flew overhead.

Visible in the western skies over Southwest france at 20:08 for just under three minutes.

Used a filter in Art Camera app on my iPhone.
