Artist's rendering of the Cygnus spacecraft approaching the International Space Station. Launched on Orbital's Taurus II rocket, Cygnus will provide commercial cargo resupply services to the ISS beginning in 2012.
This image shows workers in clean suits with the ISS airlock module.
The ISS Hardware Integration Facility runs tests to ensure that all the space station modules, the products of many nations, work correctly with each other before launch. Most, if not all, of the modules seen here are now in orbit.
This image was taken on an April 2001 education trip to NASA for school pupils from Wales and Cornwall. At that time it was possible to go beyond the tourist route; the ISS modules seen here are real and not the mock ups shown to the public. 9/11 changed all that when we returned in 2002.
This image was taken on film and scanned shortly afterwards. The EXIF data refers to the scan.
An attempt to capture the path of the space shuttle and space station on 6/19/07. Unfortunately, I had a little tripod drift. I believe the space station is the brighter of the two streaks.
These are the gloves which are used on the space shuttle flights. The box in which they are "has" a vacuum in it. Working in vacuum is really difficult. I'm trying to to attach the clip onto a hook which is used on the exterior of the space station.
The cryo unit hisses open, and I remember my name: JB, pilot of the Subi. The med-techs call it “revitalization.” My body hums with a new, raw power. Muscles knit with synthetic fibers, bones laced with carbon-filament. I feel incredible. Invincible.
But in the polished chrome of the med-bay wall, my reflection is a stranger. The eyes are mine, but they glow with a faint, amber diagnostic light. The scar from the asteroid scrape is gone, replaced by skin too perfect, too seamless.
They say they rebuilt me better. Stronger. To survive the long dark. But when I clench my fist, I hear a servo-whine they insist isn’t there. When I calculate a jump vector, the numbers resolve instantly in my mind, not on a screen. Is this their design? A monster of efficiency, crafted for a purpose I didn’t choose?
Or is the monster the part of me that wanted this? The part that, bleeding out in my crippled cockpit, whispered yes to any salvation? Did I consent to the erasure of my own softness?
The Shuddering Breath that I have become
I stare at the reflection. The amber eyes stare back. The line between their masterpiece and my desperation has frozen, shattered, and reformed into something I can no longer recognize. The real question isn’t what they made. It’s whether I’ll have the courage to face the thing I allowed myself to become.

Believe it or not, but this is the International Space Station orbiting earth :)
I know, you can't really recognize anything on that photo, but I think it's cool :D

A Bus station, taken somewhere on the way from Evora to the Algarve. The strange green light comes from colored windows in the roof, natural light shines in through the doorways.
Tomato plants are growing inside a laboratory at the Space Station Processing Facility at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The plant growth is being tested in the Veggie Passive Orbital Nutrient Delivery System (PONDS). 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.
Edited ISS027 image of the Space Shuttle Endeavour docked with the space station in 2011 (Endeavour's last visit).
The international space station passing over Woodley, near Stockport. Heading South East illuminated by the Sun. This is a composite image of 4x10sec exposures stacked with DSS, processed in Photoshop CC. Info: ISO400 (20mm f/2.8 Canon lens) Canon 700D
Is the entire universe no more than an infinitely vast space terminal?

An overview of the Space Station and the microspace display, with Rich's larger craft in the left background, my small craft in front of them, some of Rich's cargo ships in the foreground, my Olympus missile boat behind them, and a rather impressive red capital ship I would've liked to look more closely at. (That's why you get all your building done BEFORE con, BTW.)
Total Ego then Death
I am shattering, fragmenting, disintegrating... My mind is a supernova, exploding into a million shards of darkness. I am no longer a man, just a silhouette, a shadow of what once was. The panic is absolute, suffocating, consuming me. I am nothing, and everything, all at once. Time is warping, twisting, bending... I am lost in the void, forever trapped in this moment of pure terror.
