In front of the Discovery's nose cone during repairs

How cool was that to be standing next to a vehicle that had traveled through space?

Ford has Mike, now NASA has Dave.
“Discovery, Built Space Station TUFF!”

This was taken in an OPF?
There was a time when everyone walked around looking like the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man in clean room attire. Now, not so much. Interesting.
Here’s some interesting links on the Discovery Orbiter and Orbiter Prep Facility (OPF):

Did NASA let you checkout one of those re-entry tiles? It’s like holding air.
You did walk over to check out the VAB Treatment Plant, right?

Dave and/or Mike,
Any word from ‘Griff’ lately? The last I heard he was on strike.

This is a fantastic picture. You guys have gotten to do some great things.

Dave,

I still stand by my statement of you having killer eyes!

G

Great picture of Dave. He has a great smile.

Maria

Dave, great picture.

Thumbs up to the beard, looks awesome!

Dave, please tell me you have a copy of this picture in a frame in your office or something.

Too cool

This picture makes me reconsider how sad I am about Chris leaving.
