- Description
-
This is the flight deck of the space shuttle Discovery during her decommissioning process in the Orbiter Processing Facility (OPF). Several components are missing as part of that process including panels of switches, closed circuit TV (CCTV) screens, and storage lockers. During flight, the commander sat in the seat on the left and the pilot on the right. Hatches behind their seats lead below to the mid-deck. While in orbit, the rear windows looked out to the payload bay at any cargo operations while the windows on top usually gave a dramatic view of Earth far below.

as Jason Buchheim poiinted out, look at it www.3d-360.com/102753
it far mor impressive.
I am only using this oportunity point out that
GigPan viewer sucks for 360 panoramas. I posted
this same comment on my own panorama, even wrote
emails 2 YEARS ago to chris@gigapan.org and customerservice@gigapansystems.com
and
they said they understand my frustration. But
still today (2 years later) the shame lame viewer
is here.... and I have not uploaded a pano since,
though i do have plenty more on my disk :( :( :(

This is an astounding panorama! Great job, I am very impressed. This looks great in a virtual reality Gigapan proxy viewer here www.3d-360.com/102753

So glad someone thought of doing this before it was too late.
