Stunning Photo of Space Shuttle Atlantis and Hubble Telescope

Amateur astronomer Thierry Legault recently captured a beautiful scene of the Space Shuttle Atlantis and the Hubble Space Telescope in front of the Sun during NASA's recent difficult Hubble repairs. This photo, taken approximately 100 km south of the Kennedy Space Center was one of three that were captured within the .8 s that the objects were in the the sunlight's path.

HERE is an interesting read on the sheer difficulty of the repairs, and HERE are the uncropped photos on Thierry Legault's web page


I'll be posting an update on the music, tv, and movies that I have been enjoying lately if I can get the time at work tomorrow. I was swamped with shit today and it was really freaking complicated.
