Space Shuttle Atlantis and Hubble Telescope
by admin on May.17, 2009, under Uncategorized
A photo taken from a point a little south of me that shows the shuttle Atlantis and the Hubble Telescope passing in front of the sun.
STS-125 Atlantis and Hubble Solar Transit
The picture was taken by Thierry Legault. More of his photos are here. His work is simply amazing.
The interesting thing to me, though, is that this picture was taken using off the shelf equipment (5 inch refracting telescope and a Canon 5D Mark II digital camera).
Photography has come a long way…
