Kazakhstan from Space

Commander Scott Kelly of the International Space Station has amazed the world with his photos of planet Earth taken from space. His photos show us howbreathtakingly surreal and beautiful Earth looks from orbit. These are the photos he’s taken from above Kazakhstan. Update: Astronauts continue to take photos of Kazakhstan from ISS. Their photos will continue to be added at the end of this list.
