Kijk HIER waar de Shuttle of ISS op het ogenblik is.
Of klik op Station track (ISS)
of Shuttle track.
De Shuttle is nog niet in orbit... dus is er ook nog geen data.

STS114-E-5008 (26 July 2005) ---- Handheld still images taken by Discovery's crew of the external fuel tank as it was jettisoned after launch on July 26 were transmitted to the ground early July 27. Engineers are analyzing these photos as part of the extensive imagery data being gathered to understand debris during the Shuttle's ascent during STS-114. These images of the external tank were taken with the tank closer to the Shuttle than on any past missions due to an earlier maneuver performed by the spacecraft shortly after main engine cutoff.

S114-E-5002 (26 July 2005) --- Handheld still image taken by Discovery's crew of the external fuel tank as it was jettisoned after launch on July 26 were transmitted to the ground early July 27. Initial analysis of the imagery shows a large piece of foam that separated from the tank during the Shuttle's ascent to orbit. The foam detached from an area of the tank called the Protuberance Air Load (PAL) Ramp. This debris also was identified during ascent from a live video camera mounted on the external tank. The television view indicated the debris did not impact Discovery. In this still image, the area of missing foam on the tank is indicated by a light spot near the upper edge of the tank just below the liquid oxygen feedline. (Image Credit: NASA)

Tevens net de schitterende beelden gezien van de pitch manoevre om foto's te maken van de onderkant van de shuttle. Zag er echt schitterend uit!

Erg jammer.
Het zou toch wat zijn als al die bizarre defensie budgetten, of een deel daarvan, richting ruimtevaart geschoven zouden worden. Ik begrijp toch al niet waarom mensen over ruimtevaart niet wat enthousiaster over worden.
Ik vermoed wel, corrigeer me maar, dat de Space Shuttle al met al geen succes is. Die moet nodig vervangen worden. Ik vraag me alleen af door wat. Een ''klassiek'' raket systeem of weer een soort Space Shuttle-achtig iets.
