THIS LOOKS DUBIOUS. An Italian website is publishing pictures that purport to show large cracks in the wings of a Space Shuttle. (Via Drudge.) Don't believe everything you see. The picture correctly shows Earth in the background, with the cracked wings in the foreground. The Shuttle takes a tail-toward-Earth attitude for orbiting. That means the photographer (on the Space Station? a remote on a satellite?) must be further from Earth than the Shuttle. Could not have been someone on the Space Station. Unlikely to have been a spy satellite.
