NASA original Space Shuttle Concept space station docking concept art

[wpacexxx]

Hi,found this original NASA's concept art of a craft likely a shape of an (early?)Space Shuttle likely docking an ISS on Ebay.It is unknown for who painted it.

Source:https:https://www.ebay.com/itm/383877440100

Any ideas of what's the name of this concept?Or who made it?

It's little bit too early for 'ISS' in 1971

Yep, could a moderator fix the thread title please ? The S-71-564-X on the picture refers to NASA images, but I'm not familiar with their system by large. Any chance we could browse that number somewhere ?

That fat shuttle orbiter is a Phase A / Phase B design with internal tankage that died by June 1971. Either North American Rockwell or Boeing entry.

The Smithsonian has a nice collection of Shuttle models.

The nose looks similar.

The file name prefix "msfc" means that it originates from the Marshall Space Flight Center.
