I wonder if anyone at Kennedy Space Center has thought about getting the three remaining orbiters together for a group photo after Atlantis returns from STS-135.Maybe they could include the workers, past and present, who have lovingly labored over those birds for a quarter century. Just a thought... |

It's such an obviously good idea that I'll bet it isn't done. |

That would be really neat!Anybody know what happened with the Soyuz fly-around of ISS to take pictures of Discovery docked during this last mission? Apparently it didn't happen but I can't find out why... |

It was a new Soyuz and the Russians didn't want to take the risk of something going wrong. |

For an article I have been searching for photos showing two shuttles in the same shot. There are several of those. |
