nice pic ...

one question .. does anyone know what the light in the SSME engines is?

at landing have have already been inert for days, so it cannto be
residual engine heat - and i find a reflection of searchlights inside
the engine kind of hard to belive considering that you are looking
directly at the injector head, which is not that smooth ..

Endeavour (OV-105) read the starboard wing.
IIRC: Enterprise was never dropped at night...

Always love that shot, watching the bird come in at night landing at that
angle, looks so neat..action film of the best quality.
