Phone Home, R-Rated. 1982 NASA gag photo of the crew of the space shuttle Columbia STS-5. NASA never released this photo and definitely wanted to keep it in-house because of its content (see Pilot Bob Overmyer's wandering left hand). The astronauts are spoofing the new hit movie E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial.  "Payload Specialist 1" at the bottom represents E.T. dressed up for Halloween with his makeshift phone-home device (a Texas Instruments Speak & Spell and turntable). Mission Specialist William Lenoir is wearing a blonde wig, probably in imitation of "Gertie" (Drew Barrymore). This mission launched in November 1982, five months after the U.S. release of the movie. The gag photo is on 8" x 10" Kodak paper with no printing or writing on the back. The second photo is the standard NASA crew litho photo, shown just to confirm the setting/identities in the gag photo.  Free shipping.
