Space Shuttle Rising
Sometimes, a space shuttle launching to orbit could be seen from an airplane window. This image shows the Space Shuttle Endeavour's final launch in May 2011, captured from a NASA training aircraft high above the clouds. The hot, glowing gases expelled by the engines create a distinctive plume as the shuttle ascends into space.
