Another pale blue dot: On April 11, 2014 ISS observed Uranus as it appeared near Saturn's F ring!

Right after the raw images came in, Ian R and I put together this RGB color composite (we chose the set of raws with longer exposures to make Uranus more visible):

Taken by Cassini's wide-angle camera on April 4th 2014, this great view of Saturn in infrared:

I used two images (W00088137 and W00088136) for the red and blue channels, creating a fake green channel by averaging the two images. I then used this excellent image from a JPL article to superimpose my colour image over.
