Some of the pictures that Scott Kelly clicked from Space include hurricanes swirling on sapphire-blue oceans, aurora’s gleaming fog along with shots of frozen lake and beaches in between.

Scott Kelly’s adeptness at capturing the beautiful Earth has not even gone unnoticed. “Kelly’s photographs are striking and incredibly artistic," mentioned Patrick Witty, National Geographic’s deputy director of photography. “[It’s] hard to believe they were made by an astronaut and not a working professional photographer.” The National Geographic is anticipating towards photographic coverage of Kelly’s landing.
