When I first caught this image it sent a chill up my spine. To think that something like that is part of the universe, and thus in a way part of me is simply awe inspiring. I am a firm believer in the idea that space/time is a kind of a usefull illusion. I think that we are all manafestations of the grand unified field, so in fact I am part of that and that is part of me.

These parts are for Douglas C-47 (or "Dakota") cargo planes. The "innerwing" is called the "center wing" or the "wing and nacelle assembly - complete" in the Parts List for this plane. The women are inspecting the upper surfaces of the starboard nacelles.
