Moon framed. Earth and its moon are nicely framed in this image taken from the aft windows of the Space Shuttle Discovery in 1998. Discovery - on mission STS-95 - was flying over the Atlantic Ocean at the time this image was taken. The STS-95 mission also marked the return of pioneering Mercury astronaut and U.S. Senator John Glenn to space. The late, great John Glenn was the first American to venture into space and the oldest human to leave the planet. He passed away last week at the age of 95 and is forever in our hearts!
