As fotos feitas do espaço pelo astronauta Andre Kuipers

33 fotos impressionantes do Planeta Terra

Estas fotos não foram tiradas por um satélite de bilhões de dólares, mas apenas por um cara e sua Máquina fotográfica Nikon. Acontece que o astronauta holandês Andre Kuipers é médico, e atualmente anda fazendo pesquisas sobre a Estação Espacial Internacional, é exatamente o fotógrafo amador interestelar. Todas as legendas e fotos (salvar o último) são dele.
