Image: Inside the International Space Station's Destiny Laboratory
This view in the International Space Station, photographed by an Expedition 40 crew member, shows how it looks inside the space station while the crew is asleep.
The dots near the hatch point to a Soyuz spacecraft docked to the station in case the crew was to encounter an emergency. This view is looking into the Destiny Laboratory from Node 1 (Unity) with Node 2 (Harmony) in the background.
Destiny is the primary research laboratory for U.S. payloads, supporting a wide range of experiments and studies.
