NASA Tranquility node cupola, work station with seven windows

http://www.FunToWatch.TV Reporters get an up-close look at Tranquility, the next pressurized element to be launched to the International Space Station. The node and its cupola, a unique work station with seven windows, will fly aboard Endeavour on the STS-130 mission, targeted for launch on Feb. 7. The Tranquility node will provide room for many of the stations life support systems, and the cupola will provide crew members a vastly-improved view of the stations exterior.

Cupola windows look like a T.I.E. fighter!

@citizenzombie

maybe.

i think they are getting to the end of their airframe life, hence retirement, that aside, they are still a gorgeous machine.

@Xantec Can we at least agree on old and out-of-date?

@citizenzombie

shuttle ISN'T dangerous, flying since 1982 and only 2 destroyed, there have been a lot more accidents in civil aviation which are due to mechanical and structural failure. Swissair 111, TWA800 and thats in the same time frame.

flying into space is what is dangerous, nasa does everything possible to minimize the danger, as does the Russian agency, but as long as man is going into space, there will be accidents and people will die but we will continue

@kokobaboko Been reading you two. HootyHaHa has a more legit point. KoKo, you're saying hearsay isn't a source then you call Hooty an idiot. Yet it's you that is actually the one taking hearsay seriously from the news. The News is hearsay, HootyHaHa has been saying numerous times that he got his information directly from the source itself, NASA. I trust Hooty, and have also seen the astronauts say what he's Confirmed on the NASA channel.

@hootyhaha Hearsay isn't a source, idiot. Just like anything you vomit out is worthless, so are your sources. "Oh look at me, I'm soooo special rubbing shoulders with astronauts and they are sharing their insider information..." Idiot.

[hootyhaha]

@kokobaboko You keep ignoring the sources I got my information from. You're trying to imply that what I'm saying is just fluff. You go on to say that the MEDIA is the true source of information. Would you please pay attention. I got my information from the direct sources at NASA. I'll trust them before I trust CBS or CNN.

[kokobaboko]

@hootyhaha What makes you think I wasn't aware of anything you attempted to point out? So you take hearsay over cited sources, that explains it all. Go back to, "the niggra killed the space program" rhetoric. I'll leave you to your delusions.

[hootyhaha]

@kokobaboko Just so you know, since you continue to ignore me, I didn't get my information from News outlets. I got it directly from NASA and astronauts back in Feb. 2010. That was then. If things have changed keep in mind that there is such a thing as time spans and changes of mind. Just in case you weren't aware of such things. You also should pay attention to the original month I left my comment.

@hootyhaha Maybe when somebody tells you the information you provided is in error you should use google and confirm or discount the new information. Type, "nasa to use private american company for launches" in your search engine and hit return. The a new browser window will open and it will have other web pages that refer to the subject you searched. The more relevant the article usually it is closer to the top of the list. Just so you know "news" outlets want views,so they play up BS to get it.
