Expedition 39 is currently orbiting Earth while the crew conducts various experiments on board the ISS, but that hasn’t stopped them from taking some seriously cool pics.

Thanks to the Twitter user Peter Caltner we can admire this incredible picture taken by the crew on board the ISS.

The crew, who are currently falling through Earth’s orbit at a speed of 7.71km per second, managed to sneak a picture through the clouds last month at what looks to be a fairly clear day in both Ireland and northwestern parts of the UK.
