ALT Earth's moonlit horizon glows beneath a starry sky as the International Space Station orbits 263 miles above central Asia. In the foreground, the round curvature of Earth's oceans and clouds captivate in blue and white. In the background the star-speckled distance of space dazzles. Between the darkness of space and the brightness of Earth, a light glow permeates from the atmosphere's horizon. Credit: NASA

ALT Image description: NASA Astronaut Stephen K. Robinson, STS-114 mission specialist, floats in space anchored to a foot restraint on the International Space Station's Canadarm2, as he participates in the mission’s third session of extravehicular activity (EVA). The blackness of space and Earth’s horizon form the backdrop for the image. In the foreground, the bright white metallic structure of the Canadarm2 stretches out to secure Robinson. Credit: NASA
