A near-vertical digital still image from the International Space Station (ISS)
features Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel.
A small section of the Mediterranean Sea
coastline is at bottom left. One of the Expedition One crew members used an extender on a 400mm lens to provide
detail in the image. Onboard the outpost for the first habitation tour
were astronaut William M. (Bill) Shepherd, commander; along with cosmonauts Yuri P. Gidzenko, Soyuz commander; and Sergei K. Krikalev,
flight engineer.
