Archival Space Shuttle

The San Diego Air and Space Museum (SDASM) just celebrated their five year participation in Flickr Commons. While I'm partial to the Museum's archival collection of Zeppelin crashes and Aviation Pioneers, my favorite SDAM set features photographs, illustrations and ephemera from the Space Shuttle program.  Out of context, they invoke a version of the Shuttle that is heavy on concept, light on flight.  What remains are charming, lo-fi, diy artifacts: button lit simulators, dated office furniture, slide presentations and cryptic medical tests.  Study the photographs below and develop your own space program.
