ISS with STS-118 (Endeavour)docked,taken during a pass of 80°max elev.
while the 2.EVA(spacewalk)was busy.Major task was the installation of
a new control moment gyroscope (CMG).
Shown is a frame out of the sequence when the ISS and Shuttle were in
approach and during this capture still above England(taken from the
south of the Netherlands).At this way we can see the Shuttle slant from
above and seeing the payload bay(doors).At elevation,we mostly see the
shuttle from its backside.

_______________________________________
This movie from the 13th shows Endeavour from 3 sides,from above,during approach,
from behind,during culmination and from below,at the end.Note the robotic arm just near
the Shuttle which was in use during the second EVA during the pass.
Here you van find a final larger processing of the Aug 13 movie
of STS-118 Endeavour docked to the ISS.This larger version was
unexpected better as you seem to get more ´into´ the view:
Note especially when we look onto the heatshield at the end of the movie
and how much sunlight this seems to reflect under that angle!
A larger distance movie-part of STS-118 with spaceshuttle
Endeavour,seen under an angle showing partial the upper part
and the backside.MAXIMUM resolution was not reach,due to
the distance,nessecary to see the shuttle under this angle.
(A shuttle is docked with its nose pointed to the sky.
Still a part out of the approach-images taken on Aug 13 from spaceshuttle Endeavour docked to the ISS,
but at difficult distance(far from culmination).This was a very hard job,but succeeded.
We clearly recognise the open Payload Bay doors and the wings.Due to the fact that a shuttle is docked
with its nose pointed to the sky,we only can see the Payload Bay under a large angle,so at long distance,
as at culmination we directly see the backside only.Hope to get a chance to see a favourable solo-flight
of a shuttle once,as it will show its upper part at culmination(pointed to the Earth).
Imag data: 10in Newton/ATK-1HS-11 @f4.8 by manually tracking).
Due to certain reasons,the Aug 13 overfly-movie was already
earlier finished and posted:
It´s now interesting to compare both movies,in which the
Aug 13 one shows a bright patch just left near the shuttle
(Robotic Arm)while the Aug 11 session doesn´t.Note in both
movies the bright reflecting heatshield under that angle
at the end.Both session were also taken during the 2 EVA´s
(EVA1 and EVA-2)of that mission.
