This partial view of the starboard wing of the space shuttle Endeavour was provided by an Expedition 22 crew member during a survey of the approaching STS-130 vehicle prior to docking with the International Space Station. 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 400mm lens at a distance of about 600 feet (180 meters).
