From tmz, The shuttle (which is only 37m long and has a 24m wingspan) was traveling 17,500 mph at 350 miles above the Earth's surface -- and Lagault says he only had .8 seconds to get the shot. The sun looms in the background a mere 91 million miles away.
We're not going to get into what kind of equipment, settings and preparation it took -- because we're too busy staring at the pic to get into it. But you can check out another amazing shot on the dude's website.

Yeah, I've been following it as well. Totally nuts.
In the words of Buster... "I was flying.. but a little too close to the sun". :D They should nickname that mission Icarus.
