Voted by United Press International as one of the top pictures of 2007, this is a photo of the Soyuz TMA-11 spacecraft on Oct. 8 as it was transported by train to its launch pad at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. The spacecraft launched two days later, bringing the Expedition 16 crew to the International Space Station.
