STS105-710-081 (10-22 August 2001) --- One of the astronauts on the aft flight deck of the Space Shuttle Discovery used a 70mm handheld camera to record this image of a thruster firing. The blackness of space surrounds this view of the orbital maneuvering system (OMS) pods during the OMS burn giving the tail of the shuttle a red glow.
