Northrop Grumman's Cygnus space freighter is pictured berthed to the International Space Station's Earth-facing port on the Unity module. This long-duration photograph also highlights Earth's atmospheric glow and star trails as the orbital outpost soared 262 miles above the North Atlantic Ocean. Visible under the limb of the Earth, SpaceX's Starship Flight Test 7 can be seen as a short streak of bright light. |
