Contest 156: To boldly go

After katew's intriguing image of the space shuttle landing on the centre court at Wimbledon last week, it made me think: how would it be if the shuttle could actually land on the moon (or any other planet, come to that) rather than just hovering in space? What means would it use? What would the planet look like? I think lighting (and imagination) are going to be the key to this one.

High res (courtesy of NASA, of course) is here.

Unfortunately I didn't have time to submit last week (some really great entries by the way!) and probably will not get time in the next few days and then I am going on holiday so won't be coming out to play for a few weeks either.

It must be fate, however, as we are off to Florida and one of the diversions we have booked is to see Shuttle Endeavour launch from Kennedy Space Centre on August 7th.

Happy days!

Okay, so it's either a really big truck or a really small shuttle...
