International Space Station


Backdropped by Earth's horizon and the blackness of space, the International Space Station appears to be very small as it moves away from Space Shuttle Endeavour. Earlier the STS-118 and Expedition 15 crews concluded nearly nine days of cooperative work. Undocking of the two spacecraft occurred at 06:56 (CDT) on 19 August 2007. The lower portion of Italy is visible at left.
