Endeavour: Favourite images

I’ve already blogged about the affinity I have for the space shuttle Endeavour and how it came about, and while there are many, many photographs from NASA and others that define the space shuttle era, these are the ones that symbolise, for me, the career of the Endeavour.

Ready to fly: STS-49, Endeavour’s maiden flight (Crew (L-to-r): Mission Specialist (MS) Richard J. Hieb, Pilot Kevin P. Chilton, Commander Daniel C. Brandenstein, MS Thomas D. Akers, MS Pierre J. Thuot, MS Kathryn C. Thornton, and MS Bruce E. Melnick)


STS-61: the First Hubble Servicing Mission, December 1993
The Borealis Australis, STS-59, April 1994
STS-126 night launch, November 2008
On the limb of the world, STS-130, February 2010
Final ascent: STS-134, May 2011
