Solar Transit of ISS and Atlantis

ISS and Shuttle against the sunA friend of mine sent me the link to NASA’s Astronomy Picture of the Day for September 21. It’s a photograph taken – with expensive and powerful camera equipment and filters – of the silhouettes of the Space Shuttle Atlantis and International Space station against the sun. I’ve attached a cropped version of the photo to this post. You really need to see the full thing!
