The tiny dot of the moon seems to graze Earth's atmosphere as seen by an Expedition 26 astronaut aboard the International Space Station on March 6.

Expedition 26 will come to a close March 16, when three of the six crew members return to Earth aboard a Russian Soyuz capsule. The remaining crew will start Expedition 27 and will welcome three new astronauts due to arrive at the station on March 31.

Sometimes I wish I'd been born in 2076 instead, so I could see this kind of stuff with the naked eye, after buying a ticket on the earth-moon shuttle.
