About this work

ISS20-E-021363 (17 July 2009) --- This head-on view of the Space Shuttle Endeavour was provided by an Expedition 20 crewmember during a survey of the approaching vehicle prior to docking with the International Space Station. As part of the survey and part of every mission's activities, Endeavour performed a back-flip for the rendezvous pitch maneuver (RPM). The image was photographed with a digital still camera, using a 800mm lens at a distance of about 600 feet (180 meters).
