It takes a special person to sit on six million pounds of fuel and blast into space at 17,000 MPH. Join the crew of the Space Shuttle Endeavour, six highly trained astronauts on a mission to produce the most detailed 3D images of Earth, using a specially modified radar system. Witness what it's like to fly over Australian deserts, Caribbean islands, and African jungles in a matter of minutes, and see how this unique vantage point details not only Earth's beauty, but its frailty as well.
