(Main) space
Backdropped by the blackness of space and Earth's horizon, Discovery's aft cargo bay, its vertical stabilizer and orbital maneuvering system pods are seen in this image taken shortly before its return to Earth. The Italian built Leonardo Multi-Purpose Logistics Module is visible in the cargo bay.

Your images of space are always so fascinating and up close. I feel like we get to see things that most people are not getting to see.

Since we cant change reality. Let us change our eyes in which we percieve reality.

Ground control to Major Tom... ;). I think I said that on your last space photo too... I just love to say it. *chuckle* This is truly an amazing shot, and a great desktop. It makes you wonder how much longer until "casual space travel" becomes a reality.

Sure makes one feel insignificant, looking down at such a beautiful planet, we are hell bent on destroying.

This shot blows my mind. You get a real sense of just how gigantic the earth really is. And yet, relatively speaking, it remains a speck on a speck, and a rather isolated speck at that. The shot also serves to remind me how the efforts of so many have enabled us to reach such incredible heights - certainly, no single person could have done it. All of these remarkable NASA shots that you provide never fail to amaze me. Thanks for posting them.

It's really good :) After I pulled my eyes away from the shuttle, I started looking at the earth in the background....I love that blue glow the earth puts off. It's awsome
