The last image is mind-blowing, never seen anything like it! A few more which caught my eye:

Do they have wireless there, or how does it work? My assumption is that he probably can send them to NASA control and they forward it, but since the article claims that he tweets himself, they obviously seem to have internet access up there.

> HOUSTON -- Astronauts aboard the International Space Station received a special software upgrade this week - personal access to the Internet and the World Wide Web via the ultimate wireless connection.

Cool thanks. That's really interesting.

Pictures like this often remind me of Don Petit's writeup (http://blogs.airspacemag.com/pettit/2012/02/earth-photograph...) about how taking photos from space is much harder than you think it is.

Simply amazing. Let's hope space tourism picks up quickly (and comes down in price)!
