COSMIC MESSAGE

From the International Space Station, astronaut Greg Chamitoff captured this view of Earth. About 350 kilometers up, the ISS is high enough that Earth's horizon appears clearly curved. The window shows Earth's complex white clouds and the blue of its atmosphere and oceans. The space station orbits Earth approximately every 90 minutes.
