Dramatic Photo of Atlantis’ Final Voyage Home as Seen From Space
As Atlantis streaked across Earth’s atmosphere for a final time, an astronaut onboard the International Space Station snapped this photograph of it’s plasma trail. (www.aviationchatter.com) Mais...WOW!!
cool photo, sad day
Yeah Wally, it is a sad day. It's funny to me how we can pay $60 million a pop to hitch a ride to the space station with the Russians and the money to prepare for a mission to MARS, where I personally don't think anyone other than NASA has any interest in, but can't find enough money to keep a shuttle program of some type going.Something is wrong with that picture. Am I the only one seeing it?
Wayne, the shuttle retirement was announced in 2003. You sound shocked.
