Ground-Based Observations Capture Spacewalking Astronaut in Action

This is just amazing. On Monday I posted about someone getting photos from the ground of Discovery docking with the ISS. Well now Ground-Based Observations Capture Spacewalking Astronaut in Action.

"Amateur astronomer Ralf Vandebergh of the Netherlands took images during one of the spacewalks for the mission, and likely captured astronaut Steve Bowen at work on the end of the Canadarm 2!"

"Another amateur astronomer from the UK, Martin Lewis also took similar images of the spacewalk."

Here are Vandebergh's comments and image and here are Lewis'.
