This view of the underside of the crew cabin of the space shuttle
Discovery was provided by the Expedition 23 crew during a survey as
STS-131 approached the International Space Station. As part of the
survey and part of every mission's activities, Discovery performed a
back-flip for the
rendezvous pitch maneuver (RPM). The image was photographed with a
digital still camera, using a 400mm lens at a distance of about 600
feet (180 meters). Image Credit: NASA
