Summary

Description
English: Image of Space Shuttle Discovery approaching the International Space Station during STS-131. The TriDAR 3D navigation system is the box visible just above the docking interface.
This view of the crew cabin and part of the cargo bay of the space shuttle Discovery was provided by an Expedition 23 crew member during a survey of the approaching vehicle prior to docking with to the International Space Station. As part of the survey and part of every mission's activities, the STS-131 Discovery crew performed a back-flip for the rendezvous pitch maneuver (RPM).

Fotografię kabiny załogi, część wnęki ładunkowej wahadłowca Discovery wykonali członkowie Ekspedycji 23, podczas przeglądu osłony termicznej promu. Przegląd taki stał się standardem w każdej misji, począwszy od STS-114. W celu realizacji przeglądu dowódca misji STS-131 wykonywał Rendezvous Pitch Maneuver (RPM), w odległości 180 metrów od ISS. Do dokumentowania stanu technicznego osłony termicznej promu, z pokładu ISS, wykonywano zdjęcia aparatami cyfrowymi uzbrojonymi w długoogniskowe obiektywy, 400 mm, 800 mm, 1000 mm.
