That was amazing. All the stuff of the people that had been there before came rushing back. Judy Resnik in the deploy shot on the "Dream is Alive," Eileen Collins in the CDR seat on the return to flight. The view through the windows attached to the ISS. Rick Husband in the CDR seat announcing that the docking on STS-96 was five seconds early. Mike Mullane floating up to the flight deck to sleep on STS-41D. If those walls could talk... |

That is awesome. I could look at that all day. I’m working on a replica switch panel, but just noticed the one I’m doing has the text illuminated. I was just getting it screen printed onto the panel! |

One word: awesome. Is that Dell laptop on the one panel aiding the decomission process or was it used on actual flights? Just curious. |

Were both the holes to the middeck open at all times? or did they have covers. Seems like a fairly narrow area for the 2 rear seats on the flight deck. |
