A #Photograph of #Space #Shuttle #Endeavour’s #crew cabin and nose. The name “Endeavour” is clearly visible below the #cockpit #windscreen. Below the name is an emergency escape #hatch. The “seam” where the payload bay doors meet the pressurized section is visible, as are several of the hinges on the doors.
The #SpaceShuttle’s reinforced carbon-carbon nose is visible, behind which is the forward Reaction Control System pod and its nozzles, which merges into the crew section.
This #Photo was taken after #NASA’s STS-134 mission to deliver the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer-02 to the #ISS.
Endeavour is being towed to an Orbiter Processing Facility to be serviced and then prepared for #museum display. The #Orbiter is on public display at the California #Science Center.
