International Space Station (ISS) With KIBO Attached

Station in Full View

Backdropped by a blue and white part of Earth, the International Space Station is seen from space shuttle Discovery as the two spacecraft begin their relative separation.

Earlier the STS-124 and Expedition 17 crews concluded almost nine days of cooperative work on board the shuttle and station.

Undocking of the two spacecraft occurred at 7:42 a.m. EDT.
