Is there anywhere that I can download images from the early NASA years and print them? I'm talking about Mercury and Gemini era.

I have a decent photo printer so I could produce good quality images. I know nothing about how to go about this so any advice would be most appreciated.

Thanks all

Jacqueline

I did a little digging around on the NASA site and came up with this page.

a lot of great high-quality ones can be found here: grin.hq.nasa.gov

You can have them printed as real photos at www.ofoto.com if you want. Just remember to download the large, hi-res ones to upload to ofoto. -Ben

Does anyone know of a hi-res site for images of test pilots.... images akin to Kittenger's record jump. Also the not so popular test planes of the forties and fifties that never made it to production?

Great site! I never knew Cernan had his own "jump salute"

The Dryden gallery webpage has lots of photos of test planes and pilots...probably the best single source on the web for test flight images. However, not all programs are represented here...it leans heavily towards the NACA/NASA programs.

I don't think they have Kittinger photos there...so if you're still looking for the photo of the famous jump, e-mail me.
