  |  Space station pics The Space Station happened to be passing by when the Shuttle launched. Here's something that you don't see every day. The launch, as seen from the International Space Station. *I'm not sure how accurate these are, as it has the exact date stamp as my Kodak Digital has... I wouldn't think a space station camera would be the same?   "Two Minutes in Heaven is Better then One Minute in Heaven." I'm not wearing my business socks for nothing |

| Re: Space station pics Well, they probably work off of Greenwich Mean Time (called Zulu time by the military types) but the International Date Line is way on the other side of the globe from there.   |

| Re: Space station pics Checked it out on snopes.com Real photo!!!!! Taken from a high altitude research aircraft, not international space station. The reason this makes sense is the launch exhaust cloud that you can see in the pic. Lower altitude aircraft would pic this up better. Useful links [UO:F Common FAQ] [UO Stratics] [UO Guide] [Official UO Play Guide] [Search UO] [FindUO.com] [UO Feedback] [More Links, gathered by the Forum] [b][size="3"]Got a Question, or a great answer? PM me with it and I will post in the FAQ. |
