And just think. Our brilliant, narcissistic leader has chosen to change the mission of the agency that created that incredible technology. Now, instead of shuttles and such NASA will be out making Muslims feel good about the multitude of Islamic contributions to science and technology. (But then, aside from suicide vests, it isn't really clear what those contributions are.)

Seriously cool. And you can zoom in enough to read the writing on the switches.

How would you like to have seats like that at home? They don’t look overly comfortable....

incredible. amazing. cool.
When you got to Canaveral for the tour, you learn that, among all the safety equipment and precautions, there's one last-minute bailout feature: 7 cables leading from the just outside the shuttle's closed door on the launch tower, down to the ground where, a short sprint away, awaits an idling Bradley armored vehicle, to be used to make a break for an idling helicopter a bit further away...just in case they need to make a last minute emergency escape.
Meanwhile, the energy released at launch is roughly equivalent to a 3 megaton blast, if memory serves.
