Shuttle Endeavour and Space Station Take Center Stage
The space shuttle Endeavour and International Space Station shine front and center in this amazing (and historic) photo of the two vehicles docked together as seen from a Russian Soyuz spacecraft. Astronaut Paolo Nespoli snapped this view and others during the first-ever photo session of a shuttle docked at the space station.
From a Distance
This photo of shuttle Endeavour at the International Space Station shows a rare look at the orbiter's underbelly while it is attached to the orbiting lab. This photo is one of the first-ever views of a NASA shuttle docked at the space station and was taken during Endeavour's final flight on May 23, 2011 by astronaut Paolo Nespoli on a nearby Soyuz spacecraft.

A Shuttle View Askew
The shuttle Endeavour appears tilted to one side in this view of it docked to the International Space Station taken on May 23, 2011 by Italian astronaut Paolo Nespoli from a nearby Soyuz spacecraft. Nespoli's photos were the first ever to show a visiting NASA shuttle at the International Space Station.
Endeavour Shuttle Portrait at Space Station
This still from NASA TV shows the space shuttle Endeavour (at left) while it is docked at the International Space Station on May 23, 2011 during the shuttle's final spaceflight before being retired. A video camera on a Russian Soyuz spacecraft caught this view just after undocking. An astronaut on the Soyuz snapped more photos and video of the unprecedented sight at the International Space Station.
Amazing Photos: Shuttle Endeavour at Space Station
This photo is one of the first-ever views of a NASA space shuttle docked at the International Space Station as seen from a nearby Soyuz spacecraft. Station astronaut Paolo Nespoli snapped the photo on May 23, 2011 while the shuttle Endeavour was on its final mission (STS-134) to the space station.
The Long View
This photo shows the shuttle Endeavour at the International Space Station as both spacecraft soar high above a bright blue Earth.
