Overall - 17 1/2" H x 21 1/2" W. History: "A new era in space flight began on April 12, 1981, when Space Shuttle Columbia, or STS-1, soared into orbit from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Astronaut John Young, a veteran of four previous spaceflights including a walk on the moon in 1972, commanded the mission. Navy test pilot Bob Crippen piloted the mission and would go on to command three future shuttle missions. The shuttle was humankind's first reusable spacecraft. Named after the first American ocean vessel to circle the globe and the command module for the Apollo 11 Moon landing, Columbia continued this heritage of intrepid exploration. Perhaps Columbia's crowning achievement was the deployment of the gleaming Chandra X-ray Observatory in July 1999. Carried into space inside the orbiter's payload bay, the slender and elegant Chandra telescope was released on July 23. Still in flight today, the X-ray telescope specializes in viewing deep space objects and finding the answers to astronomy's most fundamental questions. Columbia and its crew were tragically lost during STS-107. As the Space Shuttle lifted off from Kennedy Space Center in Florida on January 16, 2003, a small portion of foam broke away from the orange external fuel tank and struck the orbiter's left wing. The resulting damage created a hole in the wing's leading edge, which caused the vehicle to break apart during reentry to Earth's atmosphere on February 1, 2003." - source: excerpted from NASA.gov. Provenance: collection of a US Naval Officer, given to him as a gift. (Higher-resolution photos are available at www.caseantiques.com) Condition: Light toning/fading to photographs, overall very good condition.

• STEVE FERGUSON (B. 1946) N. AMERICAN
  STEVE FERGUSON (B. 1946) N. AMERICAN B-45 TORNADOSteve Ferguson (American, B. 1946) "North American B-45 Tornado Airplane" Signed lower left. Original Acrylic painting on Cold Press Illustration Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting was originally published on the Fleetwood Commemorative Cover with the U.S. 29c Flag stamp issued March 17, 1992. In 1944 American military planners realized that control of the skies truly lay with jet power -- for bombers as well as fighters. A year later Douglas, Boeing, Consolidated, Martin and North American submitted proposals for jet bombers to the Army Air Force. North American's XB-45 prototype made its first flight in 1947, and the aircraft was such a hit that the Air Force initially ordered 96 "A" models, christened Tornados. The Tornado was the U.S. armed forces' first four-engined jet bomber. During the first tension-filled years after World War II, B-45s of the 47th Bomb Wing based at Sculthorpe, England, served as NATO's primary European based nuclear deterrent strike force. But the Tornado never fired a shot in anger, and the formidable aircraft passed into aviation history by the end of the 1950s. Image Size: 16.5 x 14 in. Overall Size: 20 x 15 in. Unframed.
