Description: Backdropped by the blackness of space and Earth’s horizon, the S0 (S-Zero) Truss is moved from the Space Shuttle Atlantis’ cargo bay. Astronauts Ellen Ochoa, STS-110 mission specialist, and Daniel W. Bursch, Expedition Four flight engineer, used the International Space Station’s (ISS) Canadarm2 to lift the S0 Truss out of the orbiter’s payload bay and install it onto the temporary claw fixture on the Destiny laboratory. The image was taken with a digital still camera.
