The Soyuz MS‑29 crew spacecraft is pictured docked to the Prichal module as the International Space Station orbits above Africa. At the top right of the Soyuz is the Richat Structure, also known as the Eye of the Sahara, a geological formation located in Mauritania. The Richat Structure formed when underground rock was pushed upward into a dome, and erosion later revealed its layers as giant circular rings.
