This close-up picture of a Zvezda Service Module array, reflecting bright rays of the sun, thus creating an artistic scene, was photographed on April 3 by one of the Expedition 35 crew members as part of an External Survey from International Space Station windows that was recently added to the crew’s task list. The Zvezda Service Module was the first fully Russian contribution to the International Space Station and served as the early cornerstone for the first human habitation of the station. It was launched atop a Proton rocket from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. For more information visit www.nasa.gov. Image Credit: NASA |
