Next stop on our Amazing Journeys: Did you ever wish, like me, that you could explore our planet from above? I think it’s kinda sad that no one will ever get to journey from Earth inside the Space Shuttle ever again.

This is what it would have been like to sit in the cockpit.

Step inside the flight deck of the shuttle Discovery and click through for an interactive 360 degree tour.

What will the flight deck of tomorrow’s spacecraft look like?
