Japanese astronaut Koichi Wakata has been showing off his photography skills, sharing some impressive shots taken from the International Space Station as it orbited Earth on Sunday.
Fantastic view of Key West, Florida from the ISS when we flew over about an hour ago! pic.twitter.com/W58qJ2orVa We’re sure you’ll agree, the image is a thing of beauty and looks more like a painting than a photograph. Wakata also snapped this amazing picture showing Africa’s Richat Structure — also known as the “the eye of the Sahara” — an eroded geological dome with a diameter of 25 miles .
Great view of Madagascar from the ISS. Beautiful contrast of the land, vegetation, rivers, clouds, and the surrounding ocean! pic.twitter.com/APIZxBGMCg Wakata arrived at the ISS in October 2022 as part of SpaceX’s Crew-5 mission. The station’s orbit about 250 miles above Earth offers astonishing views, though spotting the best sites usually requires some careful planning.
