PopSci - Blastoff Launching from Baikonur Cosmodrome (how come we don't have a cosmodrome? That is the greatest word) in Kazakhstan, the Soyuz TMA-04M rocket heads to the ISS with astronauts in tow. For more photojournalism like this, head over to American Photo. NASA
Got a space-heavy lineup for you guys this week, looking forward to
the SpaceX launch this weekend: a Soyuz rocket launching from the
Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, a time-lapsed photo taken from the
ISS, a roving space shuttle cafe that looks like an actual space
shuttle, and more. Enjoy!
