follow this link for some incredible shots from a space shuttle in orbit... can't take credit for these... http://www.texasjim.com/NASApix/NASA%20pix.htm
Those are great, but they're not all from the most recent mission. Pics 1 & 2 are from STS-115 (Shuttle Atlantis, Sept 9-21, 2006). Most of the rest are from STS-118 (Shuttle Endeavor, Aug 8-21. 2007). If you liked those, here are a couple of other galleries with US space mission photos: http://www.spacewallpapers.net/ http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/gallery/index.html I particularly like the more recent STS pics, because on missions for the last 3 or 4 years they've been using a 6.2mp digital camera with tremendous sharpness. I wonder if it's off the rack or custom-built?
