New Delhi: French astronaut Thomas Pesquet totally needs to take up photography as a side business. The photographs adorning his Twitter feed are all no less than stunning and we can't wait for more!

Although, the view that presents itself to him everyday is worth capturing, so we can't really blame him for getting tempted. We love the images, anyway.

In his first stint in space as a part of Expedition 51, Pesquet has been enjoying his role as a flight engineer for the International Space Station (ISS).

His excitement is pretty much credible as much as it is palpable to be gliding 250 kilometres above the Earth and that comes forth through the lens of his camera.

Even though, all the images he has shared till now have been absolutely mesmerising, his latest post is truly one of a kind and no, this time it is not the Earth.

Because, according to Pesquet, sometimes you need to 'look away from the Earth' to admire the beauty that is the universe.

Thomas Pesquet has captured the rising moon in all its glory and the end result is incredibly stunning!

He wrote: “The moon rising! Sometimes I look away from earth to admire the beauties space has to offer.”
