Space shuttle
Computer simulation of the surface pressure experienced by the space shuttle during its ascent stage. The colours on the surface of the shuttle represent the varying levels of surface pressure. The airflow model has been set up by NASA engineers at the Ames Research Center using a Cray-2 supercomputer. They are using the numerical simulations to analyse flight performance and crew escape procedures. A masked version of T612/001; without the air flow contours

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a computer simulation of the surface pressure experienced by the space shuttle during its ascent stage. The vibrant colors adorning the shuttle's surface represent the varying levels of surface pressure, providing a visually striking representation of this crucial aspect of space travel. Engineered by NASA experts at the renowned Ames Research Center, this intricate airflow model was meticulously crafted using one of the most powerful supercomputers in existence - the Cray-2. This cutting-edge technology allows scientists to delve deep into analyzing flight performance and refining crew escape procedures for future missions. The numerical simulations depicted in this image offer invaluable insights into how different factors affect the shuttle's journey through space. By studying these simulated scenarios, researchers can make informed decisions about optimizing design and enhancing safety measures for astronauts on board. It is worth mentioning that this particular version of T612/001 has been masked to exclude air flow contours, focusing solely on illustrating surface pressure variations. The combination of advanced CAD techniques and state-of-the-art computer simulations showcased here exemplifies humanity's relentless pursuit of innovation in aerospace engineering. Transportation enthusiasts, aviation aficionados, and technology admirers alike will undoubtedly find themselves captivated by this remarkable fusion of artistry and scientific exploration captured by Science Photo Library.
