The other 22 are pre-launch, launch, deploy, some earth >shots and two landing shots. At some point iris1.ucis.dal.ca is connected to the rest of the Internet via a 19200 baud link. *Slow*. It took me more than an hour to download all 24 images (I left after an hour had passed). Anyway, to help spread the load and keep from tying that link up, I've made the shuttle gifs available on ftp.cis.ksu.edu in ./pub/shuttle.gif. They'll stick around for at least a week. The pictures themselves are fairly good. Worth looking at, at least. Thanks, Greg, for your work.

I'd love to get these, but the machine doesn't know the users "anonymous" or "anon", and ftp doesn't seem to grok the null passwd for guest.

Any chance of a UUCP site getting at least some of these images ?
I am particularly interested in the first four of the series.
(now if I can just find a .gif to LN03 filter......or a means to
display them on a PC)
