Since its original flight in 1981, the space shuttle has held my fascination. The first term paper I did when I went to college was concerning the shuttle. The shuttle has provided us with some valuable information over the years. At the same time, the tragedies involving the Challenger and Columbia will always be in our memories. Thanks to those involved with the shuttle program and working with the Russians and their space program, the International Space Station is in the process of being assembled. Beginning in 1998, it is slated to be finished in 2010. I am thankful that we have the ability to receive wonderful images from the ISS and spaces shuttles such as the one below -- Hurricane Flossie churning in the Pacific Ocean. Enjoy!
