caption_attribution_description: English: The space shuttle crew of STS-131 designed in the manner of the film poster for the 1998 film, Armageddon. Members of the crew were most likely photographed separately before a green screen and assembled, with a nebula replacing the background. The foreground is the shuttle lit by a low earth orbit sunrise, similar to the depiction on the STS-131 patch. Crew member names are listed at the bottom, and the STS-131 mission number serves as the poster "title". The official crew photo for STS-131 can be viewed here.
