"The crew is entering the red room". A cockpit-level view of Space Shuttle Enterprise on SLC-6 at Vandenberg Air Force Base during a test in February 1985. Thanks to Jacques van Oene for the photo.

Great shot of what could have been. Would love to see more of Enterprise at Vandenberg.

Brings a question to mind...

Were those SRB's and ET ever used in a flight from KSC?

ET-23 was used at Vandenberg, and later launched STS-27 into space...
