Expedition 38 crew members Mike Hopkins and Rock Mastracchio made the most of their envious vantage points from the ISS’s Cupola, a window-filled observation module, by giving us an exclusive tour of the world’s cities and landmarks miles from outer space.
In the InsideISS video, Hopkins and Mastracchio pointed out various cities and landmarks as they flew almost 5 miles per second in space, hovering above Italy, Greece and North America.
What is amusing about the “city tour” is the anecdotes shared by the two astronauts—“There’s Greece. I had a good friend from Greece, growing up. Excellent food.”
