Wow. STS-131 Commander Alan Poindexter captured this image with a Nikon D3S the day after undocking from the ISS, showing the Milky Way out the PLTs window.

Venus, Moon and Mercury
Thursday, April 15th, 2010Not a great photo, it was breezy, and Mercury was sinking fast into the trees this evening.
The show will return Friday evening with the Moon a bit higher so check it out.
It’s going to rain here tomorrow, so I may not be able to grab a shot, but if I do, I’ll be sure to share it here with you all.

I’ve had a camera named for me! My friend at holgamods.com made it!
ISS and Discovery fly through Cygnus
Thursday, April 8th, 2010
It was worth braving the 25 degree temperature this morning to watch this very nice pass of ISS and Discovery through Cygnus.
East is down in the image above. NOTE*** I’m going to replace this image later today after I determine why I can’t see it here on the blog like it actually is from the camera. Odd, they usually load perfectly….glitches and gremlins I reckon!
