More Earth obs photography would be wonderful on the shuttle pages. The ISS galleries consistently have a much better selection of those. I love the hardware shots though, especially the unprecedented nearly-full views of the orbiter docked with the Earth in the background. Some of the EVA images have an almost Apollo-esque feel. I have to admit that most of the in-cabin stuff annoys me to no end. Touristy pics just seem grating in context of the grandeur out the window that speaks for itself. smile.gif

Great article, Stu! Just caught the link earlier...and certainly agree with the sentiments of you last post.

Safe passage through that fire.
