This capsule is in front of one of the office buildings by the Johnson Space Center. Instead of waterfalls, they are using all space related items. It was very big and quite a site. Thanks for coming by and peeking at it. Comments and critique always welcome. Anita

Great shot! Almost looks "other wordly" with no identifying buildings in the shot. Looks like it landed, the "visitors" got out and are looking around.

I've always been fascinated with space exploration. Wonderful image of this and thanks for posting it. The angle you shot it from makes it seem huge (which I'm sure it is)

An interesting capture Anita .... crystal clear & perfect angle. I can't believe the size of the capsule when comparing it to the trees. Someday I would love to visit NASA ... sounds like an interesting place. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Anita, an amusing shot, well taken. When I put it on full screen, the capsule reminded me of an upturned cup ! Thanks for sharing it.

Nice shot Anita! Great idea and pretty spectacular I would think - I am sure it must be a great talking point for all its visitors. Patti

Never rebuke while you’re still indignant about a fault committed—wait until the next day, or even longer. Then calmly, and with a purer intention, make your reprimand. You’ll gain more by a friendly word than by a three-hour quarrel. -Josemaria Escriva

I agree with Bob that this brings back a lot of memories of the '60's.To me, this symbolizes an era of great national solidarity and pride. It seems to somehow overshadow the disabling political strife that now runs rampant in this glorious country. It equates with the millions of World War II veterans returning home, thus providing us with a platform to launch our new space explorations. I digress; "NASA Capsule" is a fine image with all the right ingredients including the icing for many of us old 'coots'. Great job, Anita.............Neil
