This photograph shows the space shuttle Endeavour docked at the International Space Station. This highlights the relative size of the space station and the solar panels, allowing us to see how large the station truly is. Usually, photos of the space station are taken from the shuttle and vice versa. This photo was captured from a Russian supply ship departing the station which allowed the passengers a rare opportunity to see the shuttle and space station together.
