WhiteKnightTwo Demonstration Flight at EAA Airventure 2009I visited EAA Airventure on Monday and Tuesday of last week. Organized by the Experimental Aircraft Association, EAA Airventure is a week long aviation event held annually in Oshkosh Wisconsin. As with past visits, we were witness to an impressive display of aerial demonstrations, forums, and aircraft static displays. A highlight of the event was the arrival of WhiteKnightTwo. Build by Burt Rutan's Scaled Composites, the twin fuselage, four engine, all carbon composite aircraft was designed to lift SpaceShipTwo to its launch altitude. SpaceShipTwo, scheduled to start flight testing later this year, will conduct passenger flights into space. WhiteKnightTwo, along with SpaceShipTwo, will be operated by Sir Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic space tourism company. Check out the Commercial Spacecraft page for more WhiteKnightTwo Photos.

Last week, I visited Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. I took hundreds of new photos. I’ll be uploading sets of these photos over the next few weeks. To start things off, I’ve updated the rocket pages with some of the new photos.
I have also started adding original illustrations to many pages. Most of the rocket pages now include a drawing Illustrating the development of the rocket over the years. I have included a human figure in most of the drawings to show the relative scale of the rockets.

Check out the Thor-Delta page to see new photos of a Thor-Able, Delta-B, and a Delta-IV Common Booster Core. |

Photos of the Titan I ICBM on display at the Air Force Space and Missile Museum have been added to the Titan page. |

The rocket garden at the KSC visitor center displays two Atlas rockets. Photos of both the Atlas-F and Atlas-D are now included on the Atlas page. |
|
On the Saturn Rockets page, I have added photos of the Saturn-IB from the rocket garden. |
I expect to add many photosets in the coming days. Including spacecraft, spacesuits, and launch pads.
