A photographer in Florida has taken extraordinary photos of space shuttle
Atlantis and the Hubble Space Telescope passing together in front of the
sun. The shuttle's silhouette outlined by solar fire is a must-see. Shortly
after the photos were taken, the shuttle's robotic arm reached out, grappled
Hubble, and drew the great telescope into the shuttle's cargo bay, where it
is now being serviced by NASA astronauts. Visit http://spaceweather.com to
see the pictures and to follow the progress of the STS-125 servicing
mission.
