A room with a view.  If you’re not following British astronaut Tim Peake's adventures in space, you're missing out on a whole world of fun. Since arriving at the International Space Station on December 15th, Tim has been giving his social media followers snapshots into life in space, as well as incredible images of the Earth as seen from above. The International Space Station circles the Earth at more than 17,000 miles per hour, completing a full orbit every 90 minutes. This means Peake can capture stunning photos of every corner of the earth at all hours of the day and night.
