ISS027-E-032285 (18 May 2011) --- This high angle, partial view of the starboard side of the space shuttle Endeavour’s crew cabin and forward payload bay was provided by an Expedition 27 crew member during a survey of the approaching STS-134 vehicle prior to docking with the International Space Station. As part of the survey and part of every mission's activities, Endeavour performed a back-flip for the rendezvous pitch maneuver (RPM). The image was photographed with a digital still camera, using a 1000mm lens.
