[leq: "Where's my sonic screwdriver?"]

You can get photos from NASA, depending on what you want and need.
If you just want PR photos, you can write to any NASA Center and the
PR people will dump tons of stuff, brochures, etc. [I did it in 10th grade].

If you need specific images, depending on your purpose and form.....
pick up the phone book and call around:

	NASA Goddard Space Center, Greenbelt, MD  Unmanned earth missions
	Jet Propulsion Lab/Caltech, Pasadena, CA  Unmanned deep space mission
	NASA Johnson Space Center, Houston, TX    Manned missions
	NASA Marshall Space Center, Huntsville, AL  Manned missions

Specific missions require you contact the people involved.  If you want
Landsat images, in machine readable form, you should contact the EROS data
Center, tapes will cost you.  Deep Space data can be obtained from the
Regional Planetary Data Center at JPL.  I know of several university
institutes like the one at Brown.

At our Center (Ames), we have a photo archive which people can paw thru
(Too many photos, I went thru it recently for work purposes).
