Waxing Crescent Moon | International Space Station

The waxing crescent Moon is pictured from the International Space Station as it orbited 268 miles above the southern Atlantic Ocean.

An international partnership of space agencies provides and operates the elements of the International Space Station (ISS). The principals are the space agencies of the United States, Russia, Europe, Japan, and Canada. The ISS has been the most politically complex space exploration program ever undertaken.
