Hallo, hier ist eine teleskopsiche Aufnahme der ISS Quest Airlock Luke, mehr infos siehe unter
http://www.cloudynights.com/ub…-090919_airlockhatchs.jpg
Here is a detail of an image stack taken last September. I regularly imaged the Airlock on the ISS,
but never had such clear view on the Hatch as now. This is the hatch were spacewalking astronauts
leave and enter the Space Station, see:

Size of the Hatch should be around 1 meter. The image to the right is a detail of a comparison
image from a video taken from the approaching Soyuz TMA-17 recently.
New images comming soon....
