Summary

[edit]
Description

The starboard wing of the space shuttle Endeavour. The leading edge of a wing like this one was damaged on the space shuttle Columbia (OV-102) and the heat shielding (the black tiles) breached by a piece of foam falling off from the external fuel tank, leading to the destruction of Columbia during reentry.

This photo of the Space Shuttle Endeavour was taken at the California Science Center, the "retirement home" (if you will) of this particular shuttle. If you live in the area, go check it out; entrance is only $2!
