Interesting subject. The clutter takes away some attention though.

Wow, this is so cool. How did you get in there? Nice shot, even just for it's photojournalism appeal.

6 - Wish you had gone down there with the others and got a closer shot. Criticism; difficult in this situation - the view is good from this perspective, but just, in my opinion, something closer, still incorporating the flag and concaved ceiling/skylights/framing etc, and that shuttle - but, perhaps you are not allowed shots so close, who knows. Even a different crop here - I just see more potential in such an opportunity but who knows what was, and was not, 'in your control'. Anyway, a good inside look with a seemingly wide-angle lens, so thanks.
