Inside Endeavor Shuttle: Photos from the Last Launch

Photographer Ben Cooper chose photography of spacecraft, both inside and outside, as his “specialization”. Ben usually takes photos of spacecraft launches (the latest series of photos on his website is dated April 18 of this year, the launch of the Falcon 9 CRS-3).

But there is a section on its website where there are photos of the shuttle Endeavor , and these are photos of the shuttle’s internal arrangement, in working condition, before its last launch on May 16, 2011.

There are a lot of photos under the habrakat, respectively, traffic.

In the photo - the cockpit of the shuttle, with all possible details. I wonder how much time it takes to learn how to manage such a complex system?

By the way, now "Endeavor" is placed in the California Science Center in Los Angeles, where it is exhibited as an exhibit. Over the entire period of operation, Endeavor made 25 flights, and the total time spent in space was 299 days.
