Okay, one of the flight's wake-up calls better be "(Standing on) Top of the World" by Van Halen.  |

Quite sharp. Very heroic looking. No insignia though? Or will that be included in the final version. |

Nice! First thing I thought when I saw that shuttle logo in the middle was the STS-107 patch. Any connection or just a standard shuttle outline? |

The artwork in the center is the crew shirt logo based on the patch design. |

The overhead camera angle looks great. I wish it had been used in more crew photos. I think STS-51F and STS-43 were the only others taken at that angle. |
