Breathtaking photos and videos tweeted from the ISS

Have you ever wondered how would the Earth look, if viewed from space? Will sunrise be any different from what we see here at the Earth?

It shouldn't be surprising to know that it takes a few mouse clicks to get live feeds from International Space Station (ISS) and telescopes from space. Click here to see live view from ISS.

We only have to scroll down our Twitter feeds over our morning coffee to see the curvature of the Earth, the structure of hurricanes from above and the blue tinge of our delicately thin atmosphere.

Here are some of the best tweets by astronauts on the International Space Station.

This thin blue layer keeps us alive

I still have trouble comprehending that this impossibly thin blue curve keeps everything alive beneath it. pic.twitter.com/WHU5UShpKR

We should be thankful to the scientists and engineers for their countless hours of hardwork. It would have been, otherwise, impossible to showcase the Earth's beauty from a different perspective. Teaching us exactly how unique, isolated and fragile our home is - and how we shouldn't take it for granted.
