ICYMI – @Astro_Kutryk recently took part in an expedition in northern Labrador at the Mistastin Lake impact crater. Geology training is important for astronauts, as it can be part of the fieldwork carried out on the Moon during future missions.

Pretty sweet view out of the Endeavour windows to see the Baja Peninsula and the Sea of California. Notice the Special Purpose Dexterous Manipulator (SPDM), also known as Dextre, which performs routine maintenance on the @Space_Station, and a few radiators in view as well.
