wow. amazing pics. Theres been a pretty cool mini-series about NASA related missions on the Discovery channel recently... only one Sunday left, but heres some info for anyone interested in seeing it:

SUNDAYS @ 9pm E/P BEGINNING JUNE 8!

When We Left Earth is the story of mankindâ??s greatest adventure, leaving the earth and living in space. For the first time this series has digitally re-mastered the original film and audio recordings from NASAâ??s vault, including and all the key on-board footage filmed by the astronauts themselves. From John Glenn's Mercury mission to orbit the earth, to Neil Armstrongâ??s first historic steps on the moon, to the unprecedented spacewalks required to repair the Hubble telescope, these epic stories are shown in stunning clarity and told by the astronauts and engineers who were there.
