Just thought I'd end this month with these amazing images of the International Space Station that were taken by European Space Agency astronaut Thomas Pesquet on November 8...during a flyaround by SpaceX's Crew Dragon Endeavour capsule before she returned back to Earth that night.

This flyaround was the first one conducted by an American spacecraft since the shuttle Atlantis did one final 360-degree manuever around the ISS upon completing flight STS-135 in 2011.

With the Crew Dragon vehicle now capable of doing flyarounds after undocking from the space station, expect more snapshots of the orbital outpost by the astronauts on the current Crew-3 mission and beyond!
