Once inside the airlock, the astronaut could enter the payload bay, or go straight up and exit at the top for an EVA (photos of that below).

Yellow grips help in zero-g.

    Notice the important "LATCHED UNLATCHED" text is written twice, upside down and right side up, depending on how you roll…

  2. I expect its difficult to navigate in 1G, being designed for 0G?

  3. You look at home there…

  4. Happy Easter and happy spacewalk, too!

  5. Thanks for posting these. Very interesting…kind of surreal, retro and futuristic at the same time.

  6. thanks y’all…

    EveryScape has finished the stitching of my fisheye shots into a virtual tour. Before you start, remember to click the full screen button in the bottom right corner of the main image. Then you can click on the image and drag to look up down and all around. When you see an orange arrow, you can zoom to the neighboring room. OK here is the VR tour of Endeavour, starting with this Payload Bay.

    And here’s a flickr post showing what the input images looked like for the flight deck and links to the other areas.
