Roll-out of Space Shuttle Orbiter 'Enterprise', California, USA, 17 September 1976. The 'Enterprise' (OV-101) was built as part of NASA's Space Shuttle programme to perform atmospheric test flights after being launched from a modified Boeing 747 aircraft. OV-101, the first Space Shuttle orbiter, was built at the Palmdale manufacturing facilities in California. It was named the 'Enterprise' after the famous command of Captain James T Kirk, following a campaign by "Star Trek" fans. Its last flight was in 2012.
