Cygnus OA-6

On March 8, 2016, during a media event, I was lucky enough to go inside the Payload Hazardous Servicing Facility (PHSF) at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida to view the Orbital ATK’s Cygnus space capsule before being encapsulated. The first 360-degree panoramic image in the virtual tour below is a 311-megapixel image captured with my Canon 5d MkII with the Canon 24-105mm F4 lens attached. The other two 360-degree panoramic images were captured with my Canon 6d with the Sigma 8mm fisheye lens.
