I’ve been meaning to post this one up for a couple of weeks now, its a shot of the International Space Station taken from the Shuttle Orbiter Atlantis on STS-117. It’s a great shot of the station which looks much more symmetrical now that it has a second set of solar panels providing additional power for all of its modules.

Found the original image on the APOD website for June 25th. You can read more about the photo in their article.
In addition, while poking around the Internet I found some amazing shots taken by Tom over on CollectSpace. These were taken from his backyard using a telescope. Quite remarkable.
Enjoy!
