Earth Observation

ISS040-E-017069 (23 June 2014) --- One of the Expedition 40 crew members aboard the International Space Station recorded this nocturnal scene, which connects Earth to the station and to the stars. Among the "stellar" scene is part of the constellation Orion, near the center of the frame. The U.S. lab or Destiny is seen in upper right, and JAXA's Kibo lab on the left, with the Harmony (node 2) connecting the two modules.
