View of Atlantis on approach to the ISS for Expedition 15/STS-117 Joint Operations

ISS015-E-12880 (10 June 2007) --- A nadir view of the Space Shuttle Atlantis was photographed by a member of the Expedition 15 crew aboard the International Space Station as the two spacecraft were nearing their much-anticipated link-up in Earth orbit. The 17.8 ton S3/S4 truss to be added next week to the station can be seen berthed in the payload bay of the shuttle.
