This is What the ISS Would Look Like if It Flew at Airplane Altitude
The International Space Station (ISS) has been the vantage point for some of humanity's great photos, despite traveling at a tremendous speed.

The cosmetics giant Estee Lauder is paying NASA $128,000 for a product photography shoot onboard the International Space Station.
If you've ever dreamed of spending even just 15 minutes floating around the International Space Station—of staring out at Earth through the Cupola with a DSLR in your hand—then NASA's got a Holiday season treat for you.
We can come to terms with the fact that that astronauts aboard the ISS get a view none of us can access and gear few of us can afford, but do they have to rub our noses in it!? We're joking of course, but the latest vlog from aboard the ISS does have us pretty jealous.
Ever wonder what it's like to stare out of the ISS cupola -- the massive window-filled module of the ISS, and an ideal spot for taking pictures of the Earth below -- as our planet zooms by below? Well, thanks to a new video from Inside ISS, now you can!
Taking one small step for photography (or is it 'a photography'?) and one giant leap for Instagram, the first Instagram post from space was posted this past Monday by an astronaut currently residing at the International Space Station.
NASA astronaut Rick Mastracchio just arrived on the ISS last week (with the Olympic torch in tow, no less), and even though he wasn't one of the astronauts who got to take the Olympic torch for a spacewalk/photo shoot, he wasted no time starting to upload photos from orbit.
All of the photos he's uploaded (gallery below) are awesome for one reason or another, but one in particular has gotten a bunch of attention. Uploaded yesterday, the photo above shows the view Mastracchio and his fellow astronauts have while exercising on the ISS.
NASA's Image of the Day today is a photograph showing one of the best photo op spots to be found on the International Space Station: the Cupola module. The image (shown above) shows astronaut and flight engineer Chris Cassidy pointing a Nikon DSLR and 400mm lens out one of the Cupola's windows to photograph some location on Earth 250 miles below him.
