Space Shuttle Endeavour (Orbiter Vehicle Designation: OV-105)
is one of the retired orbiters of the Space Shuttle program of
NASA, the space agency of the United States.[1] Endeavour was
the fifth and final space worthy NASA space shuttle to be built,
constructed as a replacement for Challenger. Endeavour first
flew in May 1992 on mission STS-49 and its last mission STS134 was in May 2011.[2][3] The STS-134 mission was originally
planned as the final mission of the Space Shuttle program,[4] but
with authorization of the STS-135 mission, Atlantis became the
last Space Shuttle to fly.

This image provided by NASA shows a solar flare just as
sunspot 1105 was turning away from Earth on Sept. 8, 2010
the active region erupted, producing a solar flare and a
fantastic prominence. The eruption also hurled a bright coronal
mass ejection into space.

Lunar Salute: The Apollo program was designed to land
humans on the Moon and bring them safely back to Earth. Six
of the missions (Apollos 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17) achieved
this goal. Apollos 7 and 9 were Earth orbiting missions to test
the Command and Lunar Modules, and did not return lunar
data. Apollos 8 and 10 tested various components while
orbiting the Moon, and returned photography of the lunar
surface. Apollo 13 did not land on the Moon due to a
malfunction, but also returned photographs. The six missions
that landed on the Moon returned a wealth of scientific data
and almost 400 kilograms of lunar samples. Experiments
included soil mechanics, meteoroids, seismic, heat flow, lunar
ranging, magnetic fields, and solar wind experiments.

A gripping true life account of LAPA flight 3142 , which went
into flames after crashing in midtown Buenos Aires, causing
the death of 65 persons.
Based on the experiences of airline pilot turned whistleblower Enrique Piñeyro, lead actor & director of the film.
The film depicts greedy cost-cutting, corrupt officials, and a
laissez faire culture of indifference to safety & quality.
Numerous film awards, including best picture, best actor,

A full-scale model of the James Webb Space Telescope was
built by the prime contractor, Northrop Grumman, to provide a
better understanding of the size, scale and complexity of this
satellite. It was built and is supported entirely with Northrop
Grumman internal funds. The model is constructed mainly of
aluminum and steel, weighs 12,000 lb., and is approximately 80
feet long, 40 feet wide and 40 feet tall. The model requires 2
trucks to ship it and assembly takes a crew of 12 approximately
four days. This model has travelled to a few sites since 2005.
The photographs below were taken at some of its destinations.

The Gemini missions focused on rendezvous and docking with
other orbiting vehicles, and on the maneuvering of the docked
vehicles in space. They also gave NASA and its astronauts the
chance to perfect methods of re-entry and landing their
spacecraft at predetermined landing points. The long duration
flights would provide NASA’s medical specialists with additional
information concerning the effects of weightlessness on the
astronauts in long-duration flights. The Gemini missions were
the first on which extra-vehicular activities (EVAs) or
spacewalks were performed.
