Russian astronauts have noted the most picturesque places on the planet Earth. The Altai Republic and Kamchatka are among them.

They are sure that it is only by looking from the outer space one can truly estimate how beautiful the planet is.

It is known that two weeks ago the International Space Station was passing over Kamchatka. It is justly considered one of the most tremendous places on the Earth due to its unusual landscapes. Besides, astronauts noted the panorama of the Caribbean Region and picturesque melting of glaciers. The Atlantic Ocean, Africa and night view of Europe left unforgettable impressions.

It should be mentioned that photographing is carried out within a scientific project, however every astronaut has the right to take pictures of their favorite places for one’s private archive.

According to the commander Gennady Padalka, one can justly estimate the entire beauty of the planet from the space only. Recently he has set a world record in the general time spent in the space. Once the current mission of the ISS has been completed the total number of days will make 878.
