It's interesting to me that the stars are visible in the shot and so is the strong blue color of the oceans. Is it daylight? Is it dusk? You would think that for the stars to have the proper exposure, the Earth would be completely washed out. There is a bit of motion blurring in the clouds, so it's a fairly long exposure. Possibly a couple seconds long. I don't really understand this photograph.

Don't worry, we'll be able to by tickets from the Cinese at the dollar store in a couple of years.:rolleyes:

According to this privateers are just about ready to begin visiting the space station:

Musk was confident that, with NASA's approval, the Dragon spacecraft could fly directly to the space station on its next test flight, which he imagined could occur as early as mid-2011.

Cool Glatt!

You should've interrogated them. They'd probably have liked some intelligent questions.
