Space Station Cameras Capture Startling Images
By
When humans started to explore space more than 60 years ago, images
of the cosmos had wowed us with their views of the vast universe.
Those are not the only images to amaze
though … and terrify to come from space travel.
For images of Earth itself
have been just as interesting.
Such stunning images of space stations, taken from rockets, capsules, shuttles and most recently
from the international space station, allow us to see our planet’s beauty and fragility.
However, those pictures
do more than engross.
They also enabled NASA and other organizations experts to respond to Earth’s natural
disasters and to plan for potential dangers that could emerge from deep space.
