EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this breathtaking print is the awe-inspiring sight of the Space Shuttle Enterprise, gracefully piggybacking on a NASA 747 Jumbo Jet as it soars over Manchester Airport. The year was 1983, and this remarkable moment marked an extraordinary chapter in space exploration history. At precisely 11 o'clock, the shuttle made its grand entrance into Manchester's airspace from the Heard Green Area, hovering at a mere altitude of 600ft. Its slow descent along the runway route allowed spectators to marvel at its sheer magnificence. As if bidding farewell to Earth's surface, the shuttle gradually ascended to 1000ft before disappearing into a blanket of clouds for its flight over the city. This iconic image encapsulates not only technological prowess but also humanity's insatiable curiosity about what lies beyond our planet. The Space Shuttle Enterprise symbolizes mankind's relentless pursuit of knowledge and innovation during that vibrant era of space exploration in the 1980s. The photograph by J Holland serves as a nostalgic reminder of an unforgettable event that captivated hearts worldwide.
