Columbus ISS module, stereo image
Columbus module of the International Space Station (ISS), cutaway stereo artwork. This module, provided by the European Space Agency, was launched into orbit and then attached on 11 February 2008 to the starboard side of the Harmony module (upper right). Columbus, 7 metres long and 4.5 metres wide, is a laboratory module where science experiments are carried out in standard racks. The ISS orbits the Earth at an altitude of around 360 kilometres, has been crewed since late 2000, and is expected to remain in operation until at least 2020.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Columbus module of the International Space Station (ISS) in all its glory. The stereo image, designed to be viewed through 3D red-cyan glasses, allows us to explore the intricate details of this European Space Agency (ESA) contribution to space exploration. Launched into orbit and attached to the starboard side of the Harmony module in February 2008, Columbus measures an impressive 7 meters long and 4.5 meters wide. Serving as a laboratory module, it provides a platform for conducting various scientific experiments within standard racks. As we gaze upon this stunning artwork, we are reminded of the technological marvel that is the ISS. Orbiting Earth at an altitude of approximately 360 kilometers since late 2000, this manned space station has been at the forefront of research and experimentation in space. The cutaway view reveals a glimpse into Columbus' interior where scientists delve into groundbreaking studies that push our understanding of space further than ever before. This stereoscopic representation adds depth and realism to our perception, allowing us to immerse ourselves in this extraordinary environment. With its sleek white design and state-of-the-art equipment, Columbus represents a testament to human ingenuity and collaboration on an international scale. As we admire this image captured by Science Photo Library, we are reminded that humanity's thirst for knowledge knows no bounds when it comes to exploring outer space.
