The crew took this 70mm picture of Russia's Mir Space Station during a final "fly-around" following separation of the two spacecraft on March 28, 1996. The two spacecraft had docked on March 23, 1996, at which time Shannon W. Lucid joined two cosmonauts onboard for the first leg of a 140-day stay onboard Mir, as a cosmonaut guest researcher.
