New Orleans from the International Space Station.

G. Reid Wiseman, a NASA astronaut currently serving aboard the International Space Station as the mission's flight engineer, is known for his frequent Twitter photo posts of the Earth below.

In recent weeks Wiseman has posted images of oceans, clouds, cities and flying through the aurora borealis... This morning he brought New Orleans a unique view of itself, from a few miles up via 800mm lens.

Jason Saul served as WWNO's Director of Digital Services. In 2017 he took a position at BirdNote, in Seattle.
