The NASA Shuffle

The ruthless crustaceans over at Mobster Lobster have released a iPhone shuffle game with one of my favorite photos: the bottled anticipation and indescribable awe of one of the most complex and optimistic of human creations. The Apollo launch pad that is… =)

 

P.S. the trick to getting this Shuttle shot is to climb the remote TV camera tower. Otherwise, there is a chain-link fence in the foreground which obscures the view. It is the same patch of fence through which the families of the quarantined astronauts shared their final pre-flight sentiments moments earlier, just after midnight.
