| STS108-E-5462 (14 December 2001) --- A Soyuz vehicle, docked
to the International Space Station (ISS), partially obscures the Raffaello
Multi-Purpose Logistics Module (MPLM), as astronaut Mark E. Kelly, STS-108
pilot, uses the shuttle’s robotic arm to detach it from the station to be
reberthed in the Space Shuttle Endeavour’s payload bay. Raffaello has been
loaded with unneeded equipment, as well as gear from the returning Expedition
Three crewmembers. The image was taken with a digital still camera. |
