STS-119 overpass


Nearly 8 minutes exposure from the evening sky. You can clearly see earth’s rotation and can imagine the northern direction of the axis of the earth.

In the lower right corner you can slightly see the tracks of two planes. But highlight of the photo is the overpass of the International Space Station together with the docked shuttle Discovery on STS-119. The station was visible for approximately 5 minutes.
