EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic US Space Shuttle Columbia as it is being prepared for its mission STS-87 at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The image, taken on October 24th, 1997, captures the awe-inspiring moment when the space shuttle is lifted into high bay 3 in the Vehicle Assembly Building. The sheer magnitude of this operation is evident as we witness the colossal size of Columbia against a backdrop of towering structures. This photograph serves as a testament to human ingenuity and determination to explore beyond our planet's boundaries. Mission STS-87 was an important milestone in space exploration history, lifting off from Kennedy Space Center on November 19th, 1997. Over the course of its mission, which lasted until December 5th, Columbia played a crucial role in conducting scientific experiments and advancing our understanding of microgravity effects on various materials. As we gaze upon this vertical composition captured by Agence France-Presse (AFP), we are reminded of humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge and discovery. The image encapsulates both the immense power and delicate precision required for space travel. Let this remarkable print serve as a reminder that there are no limits to what humankind can achieve when we set our sights on exploring new frontiers beyond Earth's atmosphere.
