Russian cosmonaut Roman Romanenko, Expedition 34 flight engineer, looks through a Rodnik tank in the Zvezda Service Module of the International Space Station. Romanenko performed a water transfer from a Rodnik tank in the Progress to a Rodnik tank in the Zvezda Service Module. Note the multiple refractions of the cosmonaut’s head and shoulders in the bubbles. ISS034-E-010446 (31 Dec. 2012) – high res (1.0 M) low res (82 K)
