With the retirement of NASA’s shuttle fleet later this year we won’t be seeing images like this any more.
This shows Image of the solar transit of the International Space Station (ISS) and Space Shuttle Atlantis 50 minutes before docking last weekend. The last planned trip for Atlantis.
Have a look at the full image or click on the photo – it’s worth it!
The image is by Thierry Legault (see Solar Transit of ISS and Atlantis – Last Mission of Atlantis). Thanks to Bad Astonomer (see ISS, Shuttle transit the Sun!).
