After accomplishing all mission objectives in outfitting the station for the first resident crew, the seven astronauts and cosmonauts undocked at 3:46 GMT on Sept. 18 over Russia near the northeastern portion of the Ukraine. When Atlantis was at a safe distance from the station, about 450 feet, astronaut Scott D. Altman, pilot, performed a 90 - minute, double - loop fly around to enable the crew to document the station's exterior. He fired Atlantis' jets one final time to separate from the station at 5:35 (GMT) September 18 2000 / Bridgeman Images

OMG4599702: Renovation of the glass court of the Palais des Etudes des Beaux-Arts in Paris. The courtyard is an extraordinary architectural ensemble designed by Felix Duban (1798-1870) during the 1830s. In 1867, in order to protect the carving castings from the Musee du Louvre, this courtyard was covered with a glass on a metal frame which then constituted all its wealth. At the death of Felix Duban, Ernest Coquart (1831-1903) took over the construction site by covering the facades of a polychrome decor from Italian inspiration. The Palais des Etudes is an exceptional testimony of 19th century architecture. With the Cour vitree, Felix Duban completed the formidable educational program. In 1970, most of the castings were transferred to the Petite stables of the Chateau de Versailles.Photography 03/06/09. / Bridgeman Images

Voss, his feet anchored to the end of the Space Shuttle Atlantis' remote manipulator system takes pictures with a 35 mm camera during a 6 - hour, 44 - minute extravehicular activity. Astronauts Voss and Jeffrey N. Williams also secured a United States - built crane that was installed on the station last year; replaced a faulty antenna for one of the station's communications systems; and installed several handrails and a camera cable on the station's exterior.

PIX4599996: ISS: modules Unity, Zarya and Zvezda 10/2000 - ISS: modules Unity, Zarya and Zvezda 10/2000 - The international space station shortly before docking with the shuttle Discovery. 12/10/2000. Not long before the link - up of the Space Shuttle Discovery and the International Space Station (ISS), a crew member onboard the shuttle used a handheld 70 mm camera to grab this image of the station. Backdropped against the blackness of space, all the current elements are visible, though this particular angle makes them difficult to delineate. Nearest the camera is the Progress supply ship, attached to the service module or Zvezda, which connects to the functional cargo block (FGB) or Zarya. At the top or far end in this vew is the U.S. - built Unity Node 1. Once the STS - 92 crew completed its work, the addition of the Z1 Truss and a third pressurized mating adapter changed the appearance considerably. Oct 12 2000 / Bridgeman Images
