Selected specially for a year-long mission, American astronaut Scott Kelly has been on the International Space Station (ISS) since March 2015. Early this morning, as the ISS was passing above the Indian coast, he posted some mind-bendingly beautiful photos of South India.
Here it is (here’s what we look like) from space. SPACE, you guys.
