Commander Scott Kelly, has captured Colors of Earth during his time on the International Space Station, revealing the bright spectrums and abstract patterns created by natural phenomena and formations on planet Earth.
Kelly is the record holder for the longest cumulative time spent in space, but still is astounded by the visions through the windows of the space station. The images are zoomed-in views of Earth's features from 249 miles above the surface, the height of the ISS.
The beauty captured from above serves as an inspirational reminder of the diversity of our globe
