"But on NASASpaceflight.com, the word was that Nespoli used a Nikon D3X digital camera for the stills."The word was? I do have a bit of supporting evidence:
Now on L2, full dump of all the images, currently 271 in total

"Icon"? No. Not at all in the same boat. The Earth rising over the moon is fundamentally SO much different than a picture of the space station. I would bet 98% of the "general" public looking won't notice a difference from any other ISS picture they've seen. They do know what the Earth looks like
In your opinion (as a group), could one of these images become a new icon of human spaceflight, as much as the Earthrise picture taken by Apollo 8 crew?
