NASA. A beautiful and rare view of an exceptional column of - Lot 117
NASA. A beautiful and rare view of an exceptional column of smoke rising into the sky like a fantastic sculpture topped by a flame line and a space shuttle (COLUMBIA Mission STS-5). This kind of impressive smoke column could appear only during the first space shuttle launches because of the nature of the first generation of fuel used. This scene was photographed from the air by the famous astronaut John W. Young who was the commander of the historic first flight of the space shuttle COLUMBIA (STS-1). The tone of the image is due to the rays of the setting sun. 11 November 1982. Vintage chromogenic print on "THIS PAPER MANUFACTURED BY KODAK" paper. NASA logo and typed caption on the back. 25,4 x 20,3cm with margins.
