Description Constructed as a replacement following the Challenger loss, Endeavour was the youngest shuttle in the fleet. Named for the famous ship of British explorer Captain James Cook, Endeavour began flight operations in 1992 and enjoyed a long and distinguished career which included missions to service the Hubble Space Telescope, a rendezvous with the Russian space station Mir and assembly of the International Space Station. Her last mission was flown may 16, 2011 and she was retired. Endeavour is on display at the California Science Center in Los Angeles.

Thank you very much. It has been awhile but I think this one took me about 60 hours to complete.

I love this. I live in the Antelope Valley and was lucky enough to have it fly over my school as it landed in the station. I remember class stopping so everyone can watch it land for the last time before retiring.

I find this inspiring. I was just thinking about my mission president who was a rocket scientist for NASA. He once said that Neil Armstrong is his personal hero. He once said to us, "It's better to aim for the moon and land in the stars, than it is to aim for the roof and land in the trash can."

The intertank color need to be lighter. Like this [link]

Will there be more shuttle artwork?

markkarvon In reply to OniGojirakaiju [2012-04-04 01:51:44 +0000 UTC]

The tank takes on a different hue depending on how long the coating is exposed to the elements and the lighting conditions. My depiction is accurate.

Well from the links I gave you the tank you depict is the old tank from the 90s. Endeavour is depicted as she is now. She should look like this with the stack you painted her with. [link]
