Ret Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Hi Everyone - I thought I'd pass this along - maybe you've all seen before - but I came across a wonderful collection of images from someone who I believe worked in the Shuttle program - definately worth a look. Alot of up close images taken during processing. https://www.mediafire.com/?z6m5i74smt8do Enjoy - RET Quote Link to post Share on other sites
K2Pete Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 I have to admit, I'm a little cautious downloading over 500MB x 6, of pix without a preview of some sort. Can you post a few images to give us a taste, Ret? In addition, did you know there's an upcoming show in Guelph on November 5th? Thanx Ret Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ret Posted September 30, 2017 Author Share Posted September 30, 2017 Hi Pete - I hear ya about being cautious - I'll see if I can figure out how to post a photo or two. A lot of the images are detail shots of the Orbiters in processing - so they give you a real sense of the finer points of those beautiful machines. Thanks for the heads up about the show ion Guelph - I'd certainly like to go. Are you considering? I'm working on a couple of new projects - not sure if I'll have them ready though - may have to bring some previous pieces. Best - Ret Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ret Posted September 30, 2017 Author Share Posted September 30, 2017 Another one - still figuring out the posting photo thing..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
K2Pete Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Those 2 pix are good teasers ... I'll take the chance that downloading these 'vaults' aren't gonna load my Mac with nasty things! Thanx Ret! And re Guelph, yessirree, I'm planning on being there. They've always had a good, well organized show and I've got a few Real Space entries to bring. Hope to meetcha there! Certainly bring your previous builds, there's one modeller who seems to only bring 10 year old models to EVERY show! Here's the link to their flyer http://thesprue.com/wellcome.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ret Posted September 30, 2017 Author Share Posted September 30, 2017 Hi Pete - I promise - no bugs! Hopefully I'll catch you at the show - Look forward to seeing some of your work - I've only seen in photos. thanks again for the link, Ret Quote Link to post Share on other sites

K2Pete Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I downloaded STS 117 and ... it won't open on my Mac. I get an Alert telling me that no Application exists on my machine to open the document. And ... now I see that WinZip for Mac will open it, but I hafta buy it ... well, not this time. I've got plenty of Shuttle pix and to just satisfy my curiosity about these images ... I'm gonna pass. I'm sure somebody else will enjoy 'em though! Thanx for posting this resource Ret!
