A Tweet from an Astronaut

Last week, I sent a copy of a photo I took of the ISS passing over Maine to the folks working on a SpotTheStation campaign to raise awareness about the space station and it’s value and scientific accomplishments. They were nice enough to forward it on to Reid Wiseman, an astronaut currently on-orbit on the ISS as part of Expedition 40. I was thrilled to receive an email back from him, and this morning, he tweeted the picture from on-board the ISS!

If you’re not already following Reid, you should — he’s tweeting beautiful photos of Earth from orbit.
