Your International Space Station photos

PRESS RELEASE

This image of the International Space Station (ISS) against the darkness of space was captured by the crew of Space Shuttle Discovery as they approached for docking last week. Although you can't see quite the same detail down here on Earth, many of you were successful in capturing your own image of the Space Station as it passed overhead in the night sky.

For several days in mid-June conditions were ideal over Europe to spot the International Space Station as it passed overhead - sometimes upto four times a night. Thanks to the large solar panels the Station is one of the most visible objects in the night sky.

A number of amateur astronomers and Space Station enthusiasts regularly take photos as ISS rises above the horizon in westerly direction and sets towards the East. In response to a recent article on this website, you sent us some of your ISS images. A selection of your photos is presented below.
