The new bigger International Space Station "Suspended in space and backdropped by the blackness of space and the jewel-like blue of Earth sits the International Space Station. This image of the station was taken as STS-119 performed a fly around after undocking. "
Great Picture. I hope that kids today are as amazed by this stuff as I was as a kid growing up with Mercury, Gemini and Apollo.

It moves quickly across the sky. You can check out when it was up here. It shows a few days before and a few after today.
