This image of the
International Space Station and the
docked Space Shuttle Endeavour, flying
at an altitude of approximately 220 miles,
was taken by Expedition 27 crew member
Paolo Nespoli from the Soyuz TMA-20
following its undocking on May 23, 2011
(USA time).
It is the first-ever image of a
space shuttle docked to the International
Space Station. Onboard the Soyuz were
Russian cosmonaut and Expedition 27
commander Dmitry Kondratyev; Nespoli,
a European Space Agency astronaut; and
NASA astronaut Cady Coleman.
Coleman and Nespoli were both flight
engineers.
The three landed in Kazakhstan later that day, completing 159 days in space.
