About this work

STS079-S-125 (16-26 Sept. 1996) --- Following undocking from the Space Shuttle Atlantis, Russia's Mir Space Station is backdropped against dark blue water on Earth, though it appears to be surrounded by the blackness of space. During the STS-79 mission, the crew used an IMAX camera to document Intravehicular Activities (IVA) aboard the Atlantis and the various Mir modules, as well as to record both docking and undocking activities through Atlantis' windows.
