This is a photo of the launch of Cryosat, the ill-fated spacecraft intended to study the Earth's polar ice sheets and determine whether the ice masses are thinning due to climate change. Sadly, it is unable to perform this mission at the bottom of the sea. © ESA - S. Corvaja

I hold it true that thoughts are things; They're endowed with bodies, breath and wings:
And that we send them forth to fill the world with good results, or ill.
That which we call our secret thought speeds forth to earth's remotest spot, leaving it's blessings or it's woes like tracks behind it as it goes.
We build our future, thought by thought for good or for ill, yet know it not.
Yet so the universe was wrought .
Thought is another name for fate.
Choose then thy destiny and wait, for Love brings Love and Hate brings Hate. - Henry Van Dyke.
This is a beautiful shot (can't understand the c-index at all on this one I must say). Pity it ended up contributing to the pollution of the planet rather than perhaps assisting in stopping it... how ironic.

Get involved in the Artist of the week!
I agree, definitely underrated. Amazing capture all the way into the clouds.

Space Shuttle
Launch of Space Shuttle Endeavour from Pad 39B on mission STS-97. This is a five minute exposure taken from the Causeway (about 7 miles away from the pad). Taken with a borrowed all-manual Nikomat camera, 24 mm lens, f/16, Kodak Royal Gold 100 film. When the exposure was stopped in this shot, the shuttle was approximately 229 statute miles downrange.
