The International Space Station crew snapped this starry nighttime shot of Rio de Janeiro and surrounding cities on the Brazilian coast, as the station orbited above São Paolo. While the crew observes Earth from more than 200 miles above the planet, astronaut Bob Behnken and Commander Chris Cassidy also are concentrating on the final set of power upgrade spacewalks on the station with their next spacewalk slated for Thursday, July 16.
