“A few hours before leaving space for the last time, I went
to the Cupola to take a few final shots. After I shot this one, I looked
at the preview screen on the camera and said, ‘OK, I’m done.
No more photos after this.’ After over 300,000 pictures,
I had saved the best for last.”
—Col. Terry Virts
