Having worked in aerospace for many years I find this very interesting. It is a beautiful hi-def view of the flight deck of the space shuttle Discovery. Use your mouse to move & zoom. It looks well used and there’s an abundance of Velcro.

That's not velco - those are post-it notes.
They take the old ones off, after every mission.

"Before entering airlock, don EMU."
"Did you turn off the stove?"

"Who drank the last of my Tang?"
"Anyone know how to get orange stains off the blue jumper?"

Very cool! As I mentioned in the other shuttle thread I hope we get back to the business of going to space soon, an expense I don't think we can afford not to cover.

Now that's a bit more complicated than the needle & ball in the old Aeronca :D
