Dramatic Lighting for Crew-10 Departure | International Space Station

Dramatic Lighting for Crew-10 Departure | International Space Station

Expedition 73 flight engineer and NASA astronaut Jonny Kim: "Crew-10 undocked earlier this month as the sun was just rising over the horizon. I did my best to capture this dynamic light range with marginal success. We’ll have another opportunity when the SpX-33 Cargo Dragon arrives later this month."

At 6:15 p.m. EDT on Friday, August 8, 2025, NASA astronauts Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers, along with Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) astronaut Takuya Onishi and Roscosmos cosmonaut Kirill Peskov of Russia undocked from the forward-facing port of International Space Station’s Harmony module aboard the SpaceX Dragon spacecraft.
