Funny you should post this, as i currently have this as my desktop, thought it might actually be in this series of photos, but it is an older photo taken from ISS, but anyway, here for your enjoyment. a few of my favs from space and space themed, anyway, sorry about the size of some of these, NASA doesn't believe in taking low rez images lol

 

This is my current desktop

 

Due to the size, you will have to click on this one, its Jupiter's red spot taken by voyager back in the early 80's on its fly by, amazing detail considering the age of the camera

Endeavor on the launch pad, love this shot, very unique

 

The planet mercury transits the sun, this always puts it into perspective of just how big our closest star really is.
