Thanks for the kind words!
The spacecraft in the upper right corner is the Chandra X-Ray Telescope launched from Columbia during STS-93 in 1999.
I hope you and your daughter enjoy the event.

I was looking for the connection and missed the reference to the 99ers and Eileen Collins. I love to hunt for the meaning, symbolism and surprises in your work.
