This is how I make my star trails. Sequences of still images assembled until the beauty of Earth from International Space Station reshapes into a new form by the forces of time, nature, and physics. Thanks to Christopher Malin for making this video clip from my Expedition 30 photographs.

New star trails photography is back! This 30-minute time exposure through orbital night with our new 15mm wide-angle lens was able to capture sunset (on the left) all the way to sunrise (on the right). I have never been able to capture this before but our new fast (14mm f1.4 and

In space, you can see stars! I flew a home-made tracking device that allows time exposures required to photograph star fields. Stay tuned for more photos like this.

The first air crash investigation on another world has concluded that the crash of the Ingenuity helicopter on Mars was caused by the inability of the navigation system to track the relatively featureless terrain. This resulted in a touchdown with too much lateral velocity,

It was an honor to speak to BBC about my research on Molten Regolith Electrolysis. One day, this technology could be supplying oxygen and metals, enabling future human space exploration of the Moon and Mars!

JFK gave multiple answers to "Why the moon?" in his 1962 speech. But the one that means the most to me is least quoted Not "because it is there" Not "because they are hard" But "Because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills" #Apollo11

Timelapse of ISS robotic arm operations, transitioning from night into day. Working from dusk till dawn is easy when it lasts only 45 minutes!
