N747NA (cn 21441/306) NASA's SOFIA (Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy), the world's largest airborne telescope, is seen here after it's first flight to Moffett Field where many of the components where designed. Viewed from the tower at 0359 Zulu Time, you can see the radar terminal station in the lower right displaying, from left to right, the Class 'D' airspaces' of PAO, NUQ and Class 'C' airspace of SJC. The green blurs are aircraft flying around the area; including one on final to SJC. |
