Take My Hand
Explanation:
Get out your
red/blue glasses and
check out this close-up of
spacesuited NASA astronaut
John Olivas outside the
International Space Station.
Carefully constructed from two photographs
(
ISS020-E-038481,
ISS02-0E-038482) taken during
space shuttle orbiter
Discovery's latest
visit to the orbiting outpost, the 3D anaglyph creates the
compelling illusion that you can actually reach out and take his
gloved hand.
The photographer, fellow spacewalker
ESA astronaut
Christer Fuglesang, along with
ISS structures and planet Earth's horizon, are
reflected in Olivas' helmet visor.
Last Friday, the two returned to Earth along with the rest of
Discovery's crew,
landing at
Edward's Air Force base
in California.
