Default NASA pics, why get them here?

If the flood of pictures here recently are genuine NASA pictures, then
why not just got to www.nasaimages.org and get them from the source.

From something I read recently, NASA have supposedly made available
their entire collection at the above site, and that's where I've been
going to find anything I want. As well, each picture has a good set of
explanatory notes to go with them.

Maybe I'm wrong and I've missed something of value by killfiling the
lot here.

This IS NOT an attempt to be argumentative!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I *love* looking at the metal birds. But I need a tube of KY regarding
space stuff. The Mercury/Gemini stuff is MY porn. Shuttle pics just get
me in the mood.

There is a obvious dearth of links to many of the sites where large
files, large groups of files are posted. If it would keep down the
caterwauling, I'd be happy to go chase after these files if someone would
post any and all available links they find...I just don't have the time
to go through 100,000 google links. Those people who find good pics
might consider adding the links, whether they are space or aerial
goodies.

The original pics posted here are great as well.

NOW, in defense of J3. I do recall him advising that a large amount of
his pics came from areas OUTSIDE of NASA. University stuff, private
corporations, private collections... I can go back and find the
particular post that named the various places if you prefer.
