STS098-713A-075 (16 February 2001) --- Backdropped by Earth dotted with clouds, this close-up view of the International Space Station (ISS) with the newly-attached Destiny laboratory, was photographed by one of the astronauts onboard Atlantis. As the primary payload for the STS-98 mission, Destiny is the centerpiece of the ISS, where unprecedented science experiments will be performed in space. The shuttle and the station parted company at 8:06 a.m. (CST), Feb. 16, as Polansky flew the shuttle halfway around the outpost and its new Destiny laboratory before moving off.
