NASA eye candy

The shuttle undocked from the International Space Station today. Later it flew around the station so the crew could snap some photos of the new configuration. This view is top-down, so the bow is up, starboard to the right, and you can clearly see the Columbus module, forming a sideways L-shape with the Node 2.



In turn, ISS crew snapped photos of the Shuttle while it swung around. Heh, one could almost mistake it flying over Mars...



Bye bye...



It looks so small!
