Theme 296.
Another from the Science Museum in London - this time, a Scout Launch Vehicle, which hangs over the central aisle of the Space section of the museum. The information sign says:
Scout Launch Vehicle
The long, slender rocket hanging above the central aisle of this gallery is a Scout. It was developed by NASA in the late 1950s as an inexpensive and versatile launch vehicle. For over thirty years Scout rockets were used to launch high altitude experiments, satellites, and military payloads.

That is a wonderful shot. So high tech and futuristic looking...
Looks like you really had a great vacation - trip pictures are always the best!
I like the angle that shot was taken from. At first I thought you were standing above it looking down, until I realised it was hanging above you. [/doh]
