Saw this on Digg.com earlier, A breathtaking view of Earth from space shuttle endeavour.

Nice shot indeed! Thanks for the linkage.

The space station looks so fragile. Such a far cry from our imaginary space vehicles.

Anyway can anyone figure out what part of Earth that shot is showing?

Excellent shot, thanks D-A-L.
And I second jephree's question. Where is that?

I'm not entirely sure, my instinct said Italy, and a quick Google Map of it shows that may not be far off....

Well spotted, captain!
