Taken at an altitude of only 37 degrees above the horizon, it was a great
challange still capturing this detail. At this altitude, I normally even don't take
ISS images. Note especially the reflection on probably one of the edges
of the Multi Purpose Logistics Module(MPLM) Leonardo into the Payload Bay.

Möglich sehen wir links vom Shuttle nog etwas vom Robotarm der kurz davor für der Hitzeshield Inspektion verwenden wurde.
