Awesome Pictures From Space

[Hoofbite]

One of the Canadian astronauts on the ISS has been really active in responding to people asking him questions. He's made a number of videos about what happens in space from wringing out a towel to what happens when you cry.

I saw a bunch of his photos on Yahoo and he's got a ton more on his twitter page. Pretty cools stuff.

Picture of a jet trail giving perspective of how high up he is.

This one is of the Mississippi Delta

Farmland in Turkey

Dominican Republic

Great Lakes

Somewhere in Northern England

Dubai

This is in Saudi Arabia. The caption talks of the surface of the Earth "bubbling and spat like boiling porridge".

Australian Outback

There's a ton more.

Dude's pretty awesome. Just rocking out in space, representing all of mankind with a mustache that would make Burt Reynolds and Tom Selleck proud.

Very very nice images.

Bet he's in for a loooong adjustment period/vacation adapting to Earth's gravity again having been up there for so long. Hope he hasn't completely decalcified to the point he's a blob.
