A test unit, or prototype, of NASA's Advanced Plant Habitat (APH) was delivered to the Space Station Processing Facility at the agency's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The APH is the largest plant chamber built for the agency. Oscar Monje, a scientist on the Engineering Services Contract, prepares the base of the APH for engineering development tests to see how the science will integrate with the various systems of the plant habitat. The APH will have about 180 sensors and fourt times the light output of Veggie. The APH will be delivered to the International Space Station in March 2017. NASA/Bill White

Inside a laboratory at the Space Station Processing Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, scientists prepare Apogee wheat seeds for the science carrier, or base, of the Advanced Plant Habitat (APH). A growing substrate called arcillite was packed down in the base and coverings were secured on top of the base. Developed by NASA and ORBITEC of Madison, Wisconsin, the APH is the largest plant chamber built for the agency. It is a fully automated plant growth facility that will be used to conduct bioscience research on the International Space Station. The APH will be delivered to the space station aboard future Commercial Resupply Services missions. Photo credit: NASA/Bill White
Here's a low and short pass of the International Space Station with Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield in command, taken on April 17, 2013 at 11:05 pm. The ISS fades into Earth's shadow just east of the Moon as it passed under the waxing crescent Moon, here very overexposed and flaring the lens.
Technical:
This is a stack of two 50-second exposures at ISO 400 and f/4 with the Canon 24mm lens and Canon 5D MkII. No tracking. Exposure started just moments after the ISS appeared over the house.
Clayton Grosse, a mechanical engineer with Techshot, prepares to harvest radish plants from the base of the Advanced Plant Habitat (APH) ground unit inside a laboratory in the Space Station Processing Facility at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on June 13, 2019. The radishes are being harvested as part of a science verification test. The APH is currently the largest plant chamber built for the agency in use on the International Space Station. It is an autonomous plant growth facility that is being used to conduct bioscience research on the space station with the goal of enabling astronauts to be sustainable on long duration missions to the Moon, Mars and beyond.

Woke up early this morning to see the Space Station fly over. I waved to you all as you passed by! This is a 30sec exposure at ISO 200.
S129-E-006438 (18 Nov. 2009) --- Backdropped by the blackness of space, the International Space Station and Space Shuttle Atlantis' payload bay are featured in this image photographed by an STS-129 crew member as Atlantis and the station approach each other during rendezvous and docking activities on flight day three. Docking occurred at 10:51 a.m. (CST) on Nov. 18, 2009.
PictionID:46905811 - Catalog:Bono_0068 - Title:Earth to Mars Santa Maria DAC 15864 - Filename:Bono_0068.tif - Philip Bono was a renowned space engineer who was probably 30 years before his time. He was born in Brooklyn, NY on January 13, 1921. He graduated from the University of Southern California in 1947 with a B.E. degree in mechanical engineering, and served three years in the U.S. Naval Reserves. After graduation in 1947, Mr. Bono worked as a research and systems analyst for North American Aviation. His first "tour" with Douglas Aircraft Company was from 1949 to 1951, doing structural layout and detail design. From 1951 to 1960, he worked primarily in structures design at Boeing. - ---Please Tag these images so that the information can be permanently stored with the digital file.---Repository: San Diego Air and Space Museum
ISS020-E-038507 (5 Sept. 2009) --- European Space Agency astronaut Christer Fuglesang, STS-128 mission specialist, participates in the mission's third and final session of extravehicular activity (EVA) as construction and maintenance continue on the International Space Station. During the seven-hour, one-minute spacewalk, Fuglesang and NASA astronaut John "Danny" Olivas (out of frame), mission specialist, deployed the Payload Attachment System (PAS), replaced the Rate Gyro Assembly #2, installed two GPS antennae and did some work to prepare for the installation of Node 3 next year. During connection of one of two sets of avionics cables for Node 3, one of the connectors could not be mated. This cable and connector were wrapped in a protective sleeve and safed. All other cables were mated successfully.

In this photo provided by NASA, this head-on view of the space shuttle Endeavour was provided by an Expedition 20 crew member during a survey of the approaching vehicle prior to docking with the International Space Station, Friday, July 17, 2009. As part of the survey and part of every mission's activities, Endeavour performed a back-flip for the rendezvous pitch maneuver (RPM). The image was photographed with a digital still camera, using a 800mm lens at a distance of about 600 feet (180 meters). (AP Photo/NASA)
Any time space news comes out I check out the model ISS on my shelf. It's a wonderful reminder of human accomplishments.

Mizuna mustard, Outredgeous lettuce and Waldmann's green lettuce are growing in Veggie. Growth in the chamber mimics the growth of plant experiments in the Veggie plant growth system on the International Space Station. Photo credit: NASA/Cory Huston
Dramatic, rarely published photo of the Skylab Orbital Workshop (OWS) during the initial fly-around inspection by the first crew. The dangling cabling, wires and mangled metal mark the former attach point/hinge of the lost solar array. Note also the reflection of the earth, one of the Apollo Telescope Mount (ATM) solar arrays and Command/Service Module (CSM) in the exposed & blistering external skin of the OWS.
~8.5" x ~11".
The square white outline, within the damaged/exposed area, visible near the ‘top’ edge of the OWS is the solar [scientific] airlock. Per "SP-404: Skylab's Astronomy and Space Sciences":
"...The blistered appearance of the workshop was due to the loss of the micrometeoroid and heat shield, which caused bonding material to be irradiated by the Sun for several days. The parasol flown up with the first crew was deployed through this airlock.
history.nasa.gov/SP-4208/p265b.htm
history.nasa.gov/SP-400/p72.htm
The workshop cooled down, but the airlock was blocked from further use in scientific experiments. Some instruments that would have used it were redesigned for spacewalks during later visits; others were used in the remaining (antisolar) [scientific] airlock."

Inside a laboratory in the Space Station Processing Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, a quality technician checks the control panel on hardware for the Advanced Plant Habitat flight unit. The flight unit is an exact replica of the APH that was delivered to the International Space Station. Validation tests and post-delivery checkout was performed to prepare for space station in-orbit APH activities. The flight unit will be moved to the International Space Station Environmental Simulator to begin an experiment verification test for the science that will fly on the first mission, PH-01. Developed by NASA and ORBITEC of Madison, Wisconsin, the APH is the largest plant chamber built for the agency.

Seeds are being planted in Veggie Passive Orbital Nutrient Delivery System (PONDS) units inside a laboratory at the Space Station Processing Facility at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Veggie PONDS is a direct follow-on to the Veg-01 and Veg-03 hardware and plant growth validation tests. The primary goal of this newly developed plant growing system, Veggie PONDS, is to demonstrate uniform plant growth. PONDS units have features that are designed to mitigate microgravity effects on water distribution, increase oxygen exchange and provide sufficient room for root zone growth. PONDS is planned for use during Veg-04 and Veg-05 on the International Space Station after the Veggie PONDS Validation flights on SpaceX-14 and OA-9. Photo credit: NASA/Daniel Casper
