One of the most iconic images from the Space Shuttle era.
Captured on February 9, 2010, during mission STS-130, this photograph shows Space Shuttle Endeavour in silhouette as it approaches the International Space Station for docking.
The image was taken by astronauts aboard the ISS. What makes this shot truly special is the contrast the dark outline of the shuttle against Earth’s glowing atmospheric layers, transitioning from deep black space to warm orange and soft blue tones.
It’s a rare perspective that highlights both human engineering and the fragile beauty of our planet in a single frame.
We’ll never know, the picture just came into existence, according to OP.
I deleted my comment moments after posting it after I saw the answer to my question in OP’s description. Does it not show up as deleted for you?
I can still see it. But my instance had some issues with federation this weekend.
Sometimes it takes a little while for changes to work their way through the federation.
