    It takes about 8-and-a-half minutes to get to space, and a whole day to parallel park. It’s a beautiful ballet of physics. @NASA @SpaceX

    I loved playing Paddy Moloney’s tin whistle on the ISS while floating/watching earth go by. Paddy had the rare ability to connect w/ people across the globe & I treasured our time together. My heart is w/ his family & musical family everywhere-he/his music will forever be missed.

    Now this is really neat. See the big dot moving across the screen-- and then the tiny dot following? The bigger one is the @Space_Station - brighter than all the stars around it. And the smaller dot is the #SpaceX #Crew1 #Drago-- on its way to meet up with the #ISS. Awesome!
    ISS and Crew 1 flyover! Filmed with a Sony a7sii. 64,000 ISO.
