On several occasions we have seen through photos the wonderful landscape that Earth astronauts have. No mountain, cliff or skyscraper can compete with what those who travel to the International Space Station (ISS)located in the Earth’s orbit.
But the real doubt for many is what astronauts see when they look into deep space, where they have a surprising and frightening practically infinite immensity.
Billions of stars, star clusters or galaxies and even our neighbor Andromeda are out there. But few know if astronauts can actually see them.
There is a false belief that on Earth we see the stars and the different colors of the Milky Way, due to the interaction of these lights (energy) with the components of the atmosphere.
And although they do have a lot to do with the astronauts, apart from those elements, they also have a spectacular landscape with a starry firmament.
The video of space from NASA’s ISS
according to review The confidentialthe video is posted by astronaut Mike Hopkins, but captured by Japanese (also astronaut) Soichi Noguchi.
“I didn’t think the views could get any better, then my crewmate @Astro_Soichi (Soichi Noguchi) took this late-night time-lapse of Resilience and was blown away,” Hopkins wrote.
In other images seen from space, the depth of the universe is usually darker. Why does this one have all the most visible stars? The answer is in the camera. The Japanese astronaut opened the shutter to have a greater exposure and thus capture all the lights present in the beautiful starscape.
