“ISS Meets Saturn” is copyrighted by A.J. Smadi. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThis image captures a brief alignment of the International Space Station and Saturn, as seen from Washington. The photo is a stack of video frames, showing the ISS in low Earth orbit and Saturn much farther away. Saturn's rings are nearly edge-on when viewed from Earth this month. This shows a well-planned observation.
