Colored smoke streams from smoke grenades mounted on a 210-foot tower swirls in the wind created by a passing aircraft. Researchers at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory are investigating the wind vortices created by the passage of an aircraft and the effects that those disturbances would have on low-altitude parachute drops

White smoke released from the wing tips of a passing aircraft mingles with the colored smoke released by smoke grenades fitted on a 210-foot tower. Researchers at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory are investigating the wind vortices creasted by the passage of an aircraft and the effects that those disturbances would have on low-altitude parachute drops

A 39th Tactical Airlift Squadron C-130 Hercules aircraft trails white smoke from its wing tips as it passes a 210-foot tower that is fitted with colored smoke grenades.

Soldiers from the 24th Infantry Division (Mechanized) participate in an exercise known as Downed Aircraft Recovery Team (DART). The soldiers are notified an aircraft has gone down and they must move in to secure the area and rescue any injured personnel. Here the soldiers use smoke grenades

A Military Airlift Command (MAC) controller ignites a smoke grenade at a drop zone during AIRLIFT RODEO '90. Once the grenade is ignited, the combat controller establishes communications with incoming aircraft. AIRLIFT RODEO is an annual airdrop competition that tests the flight and ground skills of Military Airlift Command aircrews as well as foreign teams.

A National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) work crew replaces the used smoke grenades in the frames mounted on a 210-foot tower. The smoke grenades are being used by researchers at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory who are investigating the wind vortices created by the passage of an aircraft and the effects that those disturbances would have on low-altitude parachute drops

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- A "towback" vehicle slowly pulls shuttle Endeavour from the Shuttle Landing Facility to Orbiter Processing Facility-1 at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. A purge unit that pumps conditioned air into a shuttle after landing is connected to Endeavour's aft end. In the background is the massive Vehicle Assembly Building. Once inside the processing facility, Endeavour will be prepared for future public display. Endeavour's final return from space completed the 16-day, 6.5-million-mile STS-134 mission. Main gear touchdown was at 2:34:51 a.m. EDT, followed by nose gear touchdown at 2:35:04 a.m., and wheelstop at 2:35:36 a.m. Endeavour and its crew delivered the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer-2 (AMS) and the Express Logistics Carrier-3 (ELC-3) to the International Space Station. AMS will help researchers understand the origin of the universe and search for evidence of dark matter, strange matter and antimatter from the station. ELC-3 carried spare parts that will sustain station operations once the shuttles are retired from service. STS-134 was the 25th and final flight for Endeavour, which spent 299 days in space, orbited Earth 4,671 times and traveled 122,883,151 miles. Photo credit: NASA/Jack Pfaller KSC-2011-4273
