An interacting colossus- This picture, taken by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope’s Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2), shows a galaxy known as NGC 6872 in the constellation of Pavo (The Peacock).

10 years ago today! The Atlantis/STS-135 crew, including Doug Hurley, left a US flag on the Node 2, to be captured by an Astronaut flown on a US vehicle.
