Long exposure of the launch of the Space Shuttle Endeavour

May 20th, 2006 · No Comments

Stunning photograph of a space shuttle launch, either a great setup or an astoundingly lucky shot. I’m assuming the former, the likelyhood of getting this shot by luck alone is not exactly high.

Launch of Space Shuttle Endeavour from Pad 39B on mission STS-97. This is a five minute exposure taken from the Causeway (about 7 miles away from the pad). Taken with a borrowed all-manual Nikomat camera, 24 mm lens, f/16, Kodak Royal Gold 100 film. When the exposure was stopped in this shot, the shuttle was approximately 229 statute miles downrange.
