I got an email with these photos from my old commanding officer from my Navy days, and they were so awesome I had to search for a web site that did them justice, so I could share them with y'all.

Thanks Chester,
Amazing photos! How can anyone not believe in God! I am told that the universe is, if I remember correctly, 15 Billion light years to the edge. How they know that I don't know and what is beyond that is mind boggling. I remember reading that God holds the universe in the palm of his hand. Just how little are we! Or how big is God?

I'm glad they didn't scrap the Hubble. They were ready to let it go last year until they got funding. I hope they keep it running for a very long time. The images are amazing.
Hi Jim
Great photographs makes one feel very humble
regards

Absolutely beautiful works of art from God. Thanks for sharing.
Great Photos Jim, truly wonderful, thanks for sharing!
Amazing Jim. The wonders of the Universe
As John T. Chisum said, "God's already been there."
Thank you, Jim, for that amazing photo array. Makes the human race rather insignificant and puts one in awe
!
Cheers - Jay
Here's another amazing example of photography from space - you will need Microsoft Power Point to view, but if you have it, I think you'll enjoy it.

Hi Jim
Superb montage of photgraphs and the music was very fitting.
It has often been stated that its possible to see the great wall of China from space, but I watched a TV programme that claimed this was an unrban myth, can anyone shed any light on this issue?

Because our latest addition to this thread ended up on the bottom of page one, we just wanted to bump the link here to page two - enjoy!
Robbie and Keith, glad you enjoyed it, and thanks, Keith, for that bit of info about the Great Wall.

This is a little off topic, but, what the hey, it still has to do with flight

Hey Jim, brilliant aircraft,
how they have the reaction
to fly those things, amazes me!!
It truly is amazing. What I really was impressed with was the swiveling exhaust tube, and then having everything computerized to be able to control all that force. They could hover in the air and just go around in circles, either clockwise or counterclockwise.

Jim, I notice from the film,
that it mentions the Harrier jump jet
(which of course, was one of ours)
and that it's taken that technology
state-of-the-art, which as you
say, uses computers
The fella stated, there were two or
three computers, right behind the cockpit.
I bet they're a little bit more sophisticated,
than when the Harrier was built!
As time goes by, they learn new tricks to add to the older technology.
Next thing you know, we'll be riding around in flying saucers.

Howdy,
Below is (hopefully) a Link to 6 and a half minute video taken at an air show in Japan. If you appreciate stunt flying, you will marvel at the acrobatics flown by a couple of outstanding pilots. You'll gain an appreciation of all the physical demands placed on the pilots thanks to video taken both within and outside of the cockpit. When the video opens, double click on it so that you can watch the show on full screen.

Enjoy and I do hope you don't get airsick. Ha! I'm not sure airplanes are supposed to fly like this. What do you think, Chilibill??
Chester
Very cool Chester.
How do they get those things to fly sideways??
