Where in the Universe Challenge #137
Universe Today | Nancy Atkinson | 2011 Feb 16

Here’s this week’s image for the Where In The Universe Challenge, to test your visual knowledge of the cosmos. You know what to do: take a look at this image and see if you can determine where in the universe this image is from; give yourself extra points if you can name the spacecraft/telescope responsible for the image. We’ll provide the image today, but won’t reveal the answer until later. This gives you a chance to mull over the image and provide your answer/guess in the comment section. Please, no links or extensive explanations of what you think this is — give everyone the chance to guess.

Can you name the spacecraft, telescope, or instrument involved with this image? If so, you can probably name the launch site and date.

LOL! I think your first impression was at least partially right. I believe it is a shuttle launch, but which shuttle and which launch. Obviously it isn't STS-133.

All I can say is that any regular on Asterisk that can't identify where this image was taken and what spacecraft took it isn't paying attention.
