Beautiful shots MasterChief -- wish I could have been there. A good buddy of mine was on board the 747 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft this morning -- he said it was like a funeral procession. :(

No, there likely will be little, or no, additional "cleaning." This is what the Orbiter looks like after multiple reentries at Mach 25! ;)
