Title : Centurion in Flight over Lakebed with STS Mate-DeMate Device in Background

Caption :

The Centurion remotely piloted flying wing in flight during an initial series of low-altitude, battery-powered test flights in late 1998 at NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center, Edwards, California. The special Mate-DeMate structure used by NASA to attach Space Shuttle orbiters to the back of modified Boeing 747s for transport to other locations can be seen in the background of this photo.
