I hope by the time you see this post, Space Shuttle Endeavour will have carried the STS-130 crew into orbit; at time of writing, it’s about 90 minutes to launch and low clouds are giving a no-go status, which hopefully will clear in the next hour. These pictures are from Saturday, and I love the sunrise photo (top) — granted, a sunset would be more appropriate at this point….

I started to feel bad for all the shuttle-picspam I post around each launch, but you know, there’s only five left including this one, and the Space Shuttle is the iconic spacecraft of my youth and… my life. So I don’t care. I’m posting beautiful shuttle pics. Next year I’ll probably not stop. :P
