X-15 MOUNTED TO B-52 MOTHERSHIP 11x14 SILVER HALIDE PHOTO PRINT

Description: X-15 Mounted to B-52 Mothership 11x14 Silver Halide Photo Print Photographer/Credit: NASA / RMP Archive Photo Image Date: January 1965 Image ID: NS015 Photo of a X-15 under the wing of a B-52. Because of the large fuel consumption, the X-15 rocket powered aircraft was air launched from a B-52 aircraft at 45,000 ft and a speed of about 500 mph. This photo was taken from one of the observation windows in the B-52 shortly before dropping the X-15. The X-15 was flown over a period of nearly 10 years (June 1959 to October 1968) and set the world's unofficial speed and altitude records of 4,520 mph (Mach 6.7) and 354,200 ft in a program to investigate all aspects of manned hypersonic flight. Information gained from the highly successful X-15 program contributed to the development of the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo manned spaceflight programs, and also the Space Shuttle program. The X-15s made a total of 199 flights, and were manufactured by North American Aviation. X-15-1, serial number 56-6670, is now located at the National Air and Space Museum, Washington DC. North American X-15A-2, serial number 56-6671, is at the United States Air Force Museum, Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio. The X-15-3, serial number 56-6672, crashed on November 15, 1967, resulting in the death of Maj. Michael J. Adams.

Sometimes we get prints shipped out within a day, but please don?t take that as precedent that we can always ship that quickly. Printing real silver halide lab prints has become challenging due to supply chain issues, and lack of parts when legacy machines break. Kodak has discontinued producing paper as of Summer 2023 (we currently use a mix of Kodak and Fuji papers), and machine manufacturers are no longer investing in the technology. While we absolutely love and are committed to this technology and art form over modern inkjet technology, the cost of doing so has become reliable turnaround time.Combined Shipping Discounts applied in cart during checkout.

Our above listed transit times are more realistic. If you're looking for the highest quality photo available of this image, then I'm confident that you've found it. We actually do things different here, mixing the best of today's print and restoration technologies with old fashioned hard work and artistry. People still make the artistic decisions, not computers. And we print real light exposed and chemical processed prints using Kodak Professional Endura archival photo paper, not just ink jet prints, mass produced posters or the pitiful photocopies that are sold by hundreds of online sellers. Since our start online in 2001, we've served more than 50,000 customers, and every one of them started by contemplating whether we were offering something special, something worthy of their hard earned dollars. We know that terms like "fine art," "archival," and "best" are thrown around very loosely in this business, with most of those prints being mass produced lower resolution poster prints, at best. Posters can be great, and we sell some elsewhere on this site, but what you are buying here is a REAL PHOTOGRAPH!We expertly retouch and restore old historic images to be as good or better looking than the originals. We start by finding the highest quality negative, print or digital file that is known to exist. Each photograph then gets individual attention from one of our print masters and is meticulously restored with special attention to color reproduction, contrast, exposure and dust and scratch removal. Each photograph is then printed on REAL chemically processed archival photo paper. The combination of expert artistry, today's professional lab print technology and only archival print materials, results in a museum quality fine art print that rivals, or in most cases exceeds, the beauty and quality of the original. At The McMahan Photo Archive, you are always buying the best!Each print is given a final inspection before leaving the studio. 11x14 and smaller prints are always shipped flat, sealed in archival plastic with a backing board to protect them till you are ready to display them. Every shipment is fully insured, so you will always get a pristine print. Most importantly, every order is backed by our 30 Day 100% GUARANTEE! In the unlikely event that your print is damaged in shipment, or if you don't like it for any reason, you are entitled to your choice of having us correct the problem, exchanging it, or returning it for a refund. Isn't that the way it should be? We really want to make you into one of our raving fans!Robert McMahanFounder, Photographer, Historic Photo Print Expert We really do believe in 100% Satisfaction, GUARANTEED!
