They're lying. That photo would have to have been taken from the back of the cargo bay. And there are no windows there. And it's in vacuum.

I doubt that you could get a photo of a wing even from the cabin. Unfortunately, all the links I've found to space shuttle tech drawings don't work. All sites link back to a NASA site and it has pulled the plug. All I could come up with are some photos.

Except for one Russian site, comrade. And my computer ran out of virtual memory trying to download their image.

Man, you're GOOD!

That first link in my post doesn't seem to work now. It did before.

I noticed something else about that Israeli photo. The black heat tiles climb for some distance onto the top surface of both the front and back edges of the shuttle wing. See the second link.

But their is almost no evidence of them in that photo.
