___Click on the shuttle picture, below.

___You are listening to an unusual mission by astronauts in the shuttles Endeavor, Atlantis & Columbia as they seamlessly mix into one vehicle. You hear them take off and you marvel at the skill of the people that support them. Amidst great confusion you are with them as they dock with the Mir Space Station. With great emotion you share bread and salt. Suddenly the astronauts are saying goodbye and then they slowly move away through the safety corridor into orbit over Earth.

___This is a real audio broadcast that is designed to be experienced in a private space. I hope you will facilitate personalised and closed audio, that you will turn off all the lights and bask in the moonlight of the monitor: get warm and cramped in your shuttle/movie theatre.
Weaved into this narrative are sound samples from a broad range of sources to facilitate a movie soundtrack experience. Duration: as long as you like.
