Here's a Hengeveld painting of the shuttle and Hubble rendezvous, a U.S. flag flown on the original Hubble placement mission, all the patches from the servicing missions and a piece of the telescope itself thanks to Retro Space.

Wow, that looks really cool! The only thing left is a model of Hubble next to your acrylic and you'd all set Really neat stuff.

That's a great display of a specific, fine chapter of the shuttle program story.

Very nice. I'm thinking of doing something similar for STS-49, STS-89 and 134.

I'm wondering what the admission fee is. He's got to pay for all that framing somehow.

Nice to see where Ed's painting ended up.

You should try to find the plastic Lockheed Martin display in the shape of the state of California to complete the setup.

Another Space Telescope fan...

Bob (the framer) sent me a postcard from some obscure beach on the Mediterranean. Any connection to the Milgrom Museum project?
