APOD 3.7

This picture shows two arcs of light across the sky. They are the International Space Station and the Space Shuttle Discovery. The ISS is in low Earth orbit, and it reflects sunlight back. The Shuttle had just undocked from the ISS. Both objects can be seen from Earth without much trouble. The image shows the aths that the objects traced out across the sky.
