Discovery Rollout Shadow

NASA APOD · Nancy Atkinson (Universe Today)
COSMIC MESSAGE

What created this monstrous shadow on the fog? The space shuttle Discovery was being rolled out last March in preparation for launch. The shuttle Crawler-Transporter, one of the largest tracked vehicles on Earth, carried Discovery. This image captures the unusual shadow during a picturesque night unveiling.
