PICTURES OF THE WEEK: SPACE SELFIES
by Hazed
Astronauts take pictures of themselves and the results tend to be much more interesting that the boring selfies people take on Earth. The fact that their surroundings are reflected in the visors on their helmets helps, as does the background they float in front of. Much more interesting than the snaps taken in your untidy bedroom.
Here’s a selection of self-portrait images taken by astronauts – and as a bonus, some taken by robots and space stations.
