New Delhi: NASA astronaut Victor Glover recently travelled to the International Space Station. Victor posted a breathtaking view of the Earth from space on Twitter which left the whole social media in awestruck.
Glover is one of the four astronauts who entered the ISS after a 27-hour, automated flight aboard the Space X’s Dragon Capsule last week.
“The video just doesn’t do it justice – It is pretty amazing though,” Victor says in video as he points the camera towards Earth.
“My first video from space! Looking at the Earth through the window of Dragon Resilience. The scale of detail and sensory inputs made this a breathtaking perspective,” he wrote while sharing the clip on Twitter.

The video has been viewed nearly 2 million times on the microblogging platform, collecting over 1 lakh ‘likes’ and thousands of amazed comments.
According to Daily Mail, Glover has dreamed of being in space since he was in middle school. He not only fulfilled his dream with this mission but also created history. He is one of the first people to go on a private mission to ISS and the first black person to live on the ISS for an extended stay. The team is going to live and research on the space station for six months.
