Great photos. Thanks!

I’ve never seen the bottom of the Shuttle on-orbit before. It sure is filthy — from launch?

Wonderful looks! Thanks!

But why are there no cars or trucks on the Giza roads? I’d think you’d at least see a little bit of mottling from shadows if they were there.

The Nile certainly has moved from where it was when the Pyramids were constructed.
