Yep, I got the same problems with the same images! Tried a page refresh with no luck.Anyone know if the thumb for image 15 is a rare uncropped version of the crew pic or have they flipped a section and pasted it to make it square? The image loads as the normal pano crew pic. Cheers.....Adam |

Some of the photos that won't open are also available in the KSC gallery. See the first link under the photos.By the way: some of these scans are awfully bad! Purple or yellow haze! The SRB recovery pics, for example... And Adam: this is just the normal STS-1 crew portrait. Like you said: they flipped a section to make it square. Ed |

Thanks for that Ed, Because of the size of the thumbnail I wasn't sure if they weren't standing behind a polished table! Adam |

When I was in California back in 2000, I saw Columbia up close and took a lot of photos, some I scanned and are posted here. Seven pages still work... ---- Jacques ![](http://collectspace.com/ubb/smile.gif) www.spacepatches.nl |
