sfb - fair point!

rocketdog - you're not dirt, dont worry 😉 (Edited, sorry, missed the "not"!)

Does look like they're off out into space rather than in orbit doesnt it!

Of course the image isnt very interesting, its the feat behind them getting there that is inspiring and this photo highlights that.

Fantastic photo, especially considering the transit time for the last pic of Atlantis side-on was 0.3sec! And clear enough to tell her cargo doors were open. I'd be pretty damn chuffed to have taken it, for sure.
(iSun! LOL)

ELAINE: We've been thrown off course just a tad.

PASSENGER: What's that mean?

ELAINE: In space terms, about 70 million miles.

(The Passengers appear interested and sensible, nod their heads)

ELAINE: The bumps you feel are car-sized asteroids smashing into the hull.

(The hood of a car smashes through the cabin wall. The Passengers still appear interested and sensible)

ELAINE: Also, we're heading right for the sun and can't seem to change course.

(Passengers still appear interested and sensible. They all put on sunglasses.)

PASSENGER: Are you telling us everything?

ELAINE: Not exactly. We're also out of coffee.

(The Passengers errupt in total panic)

It's a fake ! just like the moon landings, Kennedy Assassination and Roswell

basically it's a mosquito on a melon taken with a really crappy phone camera.
