"An amateur astronomer named Thierry Legault took this crazy photo of the Space Shuttle Atlantis silhouetted by the sun.

The shuttle (which is only 37m long and has a 24m wingspan) was traveling 17,500 mph at 350 miles above the Earth's surface -- and Legault says he only had .8 seconds to get the shot. The sun looms in the background a mere 91 million miles away."
