Approaching the International Space Station

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

In September 2000, the Space Shuttle Atlantis approached the developing International Space Station (ISS). The crew saw the station as it then existed: the Progress supply module, the Zvezda service module, the Zarya cargo module, and the Unity connecting module. This was the first time astronauts saw the station after the remote-controlled additions of Progress and Zvezda. Flat solar panels extended from some of the modules.
