They See the Moon Several Times a Day
Humans living on Earth only get to see the moon when the sun goes down. In some cases, the moon is visible during the daytime, usually when the sun starts to set or early in the morning. But it takes the station 90 minutes to orbit Earth, so the onboard crew get to see the moon a total of 16 times a day. This photo, which looks like a beautiful oil painting, shows the space between Earth’s atmosphere and the moon high above the planet.
