Are you sure thats a spaceflight image? I think those parts on the floor are what the 787 prototype looks like! Apparently they are thinking of calling in that 5 year old rubiks cube champion to put it together for them properly!

"This image shows the core segment of the European Space Agency's manned Spacelab laboratory flight unit with the subfloor for the components of the environmental control and life support system. The flight unit, carried onboard NASA's Space Shuttle, was built by the Spacelab consortium of European companies. Over 15 years from 1983 to 1998 there were 21 Spacelab flights."
