ATV Johannes Kepler is seen at the top of the photo – with her x-wing solar panels seen almost edge-on.

18 May 2011: One of the crew members aboard the space shuttle Endeavour photographed this scene of the International Space Station (ISS) as the two spacecraft were preparing to link up in Earth orbit. The “extra” glares and reflections are inside Endeavour’s crew cabin. Not long after the picture was taken, the two spacecraft docked, and six astronauts aboard Endeavour were welcomed by six crew members on the ISS to join forces for continued work on the station.
