Commander Koichi Wakata poses before a Cupola window aboard the International Space Station. The Canadarm2’s Latching End Effector looks on from the other side of the glass. Meanwhile, in the background, Earth hangs almost modestly, all but obscured by the photo’s fore- and middleground subjects.

Don’t worry Earth, we see you.
