Explanation:
Still bathed in sunlight
the International
Space Station (ISS) arced through this Manhattan evening sky on May 30.
Moving left to right, its bright trail was captured in this composite
image with a series of 5 second long exposures.
Stars left short trails and lights
were reflected in still waters looking toward the north
across the Central Park reservoir.
Chasing
the ISS in low Earth orbit
the Crew Dragon spacecraft dubbed Endeavour
also left a trail through that urban night.
Seen about 6 hours after its launch the spacecraft's faint trail appears
above the ISS, shown in the inset just as the two approached
the bank of clouds at the right.
Dragon Endeavour docked successfully
with the ISS about nineteen hours after reaching orbit.
