Shuttle Endeavour at the ISS - fantastic views.
Edited on Thu Jun-23-11 02:49 PM by LongTomH
When the Russian Soyuz spacecraft undocked from International Space Station on May 23, European Space Agency astronaut Paolo Nespoli climbed into the Soyuz's habitation module with a high definition camera to take the first, and probably only, photos of a space shuttle docked to the ISS. There are some fantastic views of Endeavour and ISS on the network.

The NASAtelevision channel on YouTube has some videos. Here's one set to music and a 10-minute sequence with some fantastic zoom shots and a sequence with the station being rotated through 130 degrees.

OK, now get out your 3d glasses, gang. Here's a stereo picture of Endeavor and ISS together from an Italian website that features 3d 'anaglyphs' of space imagery:



If you need to buy 3d glasses, try one of the vendors on this page. Oh yes, the NASA Photojournal does feature some more 3d space images.
