Millions of people saw #Eclipse2017 but only six people saw the umbra, or the moon's shadow, over the United States from space today.
It's the moon, sunspots AND the station in front of the sun. photographer captures station transiting sun during #Eclipse2017
Currently living in space, @StationCDRKelly is 1 of 6 people that literally cannot be dragged down. #DragMeDown
Cameras outside the station captured views of #HurricaneDorian at 12:16 p.m. ET on Sept. 1 as it churned over the northern Bahamas. The storm is a dangerous Category 5 hurricane, carrying the strongest winds in recorded history for the northwestern Bahamas. #Hurricane #Dorian
Astronauts on Apollo 8 captured the first “Earthrise,” and now, astronauts on the space station capture Earth’s lights, days and nights. The best way to celebrate #WorldPhotographyDay is with photos of our world. Want more astronaut-captured shots? Visit .
Today we are celebrating 17 yrs of continuous human presence in space! Congrats to all who have had a part in this extraordinary endeavor.
The first mission arrived at the space station today when the completed soft captur #CrewDragon on the Harmony module at 5:51am ET. #LaunchAmerica
