ISS001-E-5981 (28 December 2000) --- A near-vertical digital still image from the International Space Station (ISS) features Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel. A small section of the Mediterranean Sea coastline is at bottom left. One of the Expedition One crew members used an extender on a 400mm lens to provide detail in the image. Onboard the outpost for the first habitation tour were astronaut William M. (Bill) Shepherd, commander; along with cosmonauts Yuri P. Gidzenko, Soyuz commander; and Sergei K. Krikalev, flight engineer.
