Japanese astronaut Soichi Noguchi took to his official Twitter handle and shared an image of Mount Fuji and his hometown from space. The beautiful image shows a distant view of our blue planet with clouds. “Mt #Fuji and my hometown #Chigasaki#And my hometown. I hope you can see your hometown as well”, wrote the astronaut on his official Twitter handle.
'What a view'
Due to the distance, most images appear to be blue and white. This can also be because of the cloudy atmosphere. Not just the Fuji mountains but the astronaut has shared various such images. His view from space captured the four prefectures, Europe's highest peak, Caucasus mountains and Georgia’s Mount Elbrus, the Himalayas and Nepal. Let’s have a look at the stunning images.
Stunned by the images, netizens took over the comment section. One Twitter user wrote, "Awesome! You have achieved your mission. There are various things on the ground every day, but looking at the photos and videos sent by Mr. Noguchi from the space station, I look up and look up. I am always grateful for your help". Another person wrote, "it's beautiful There are various faces on the earth! Both Mt. Fuji and the Himalayas are "mountains", but the difference is amazing". Tweeples can also be seen Retweeting the images with their own caption. In the caption, one person wrote, "Thank you for your Geography class from space".
