S132-E-009140 (22 May 2010) --- This is not a scene one would likely confront on Earth, with people hanging from the ceiling and floating through the room, but with the existence of a weightless environment, it is commonplace on the International Space Station. The “ceiling hanger” in this scene, NASA astronaut Ken Ham, will lead his six member STS-132 crew off the station May 23, and among those to whom he will be saying goodbye are pictured NASA astronauts Tracy Caldwell Dyson and T.J. Creamer, both flight engineers for the Expedition 23 crew. Photo credit: NASA or National Aeronautics and Space Administration
