HumanKind In A Solar Perspective

Astronomer Thierry Legault shot these pictures with his Takahashi TOA-130 refractor telescope and a Canon 5D Mk II along with a few other astronomy and camera doodads. These images were captured soon after launch and show the shuttle Atlantis alone and the Atlantis and Hubble as they cross the face of the sun. Pictures like these put the real in my Sci-Fi. Thank Gizmodo.
