Just Beautiful


Found this pic at warrenellis.com and decided it was just too cool not to swipe and post here. It's a pic of a space shuttle launch as seen from the international space station. Pretty goddamn cool, huh?

UPDATED:
Just got this from Snopes:
The above-displayed photographs do capture the launch of Space Shuttle Atlantis (NASA Mission STS-115) from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida on 9 September 2006. However, the pictures were not (as claimed in the accompanying text) taken from the International Space Station (ISS), which would be at a considerably higher altitude than shown here, but rather from NASA/JSC WB-57 High Altitude Research aircraft.
