Quite often, I receive questions like ‘is #Antarctica visible from the ISS?’ The answer is yes, it is!
The track of the ISS passes over all continents except Antarctica, but it is still visible!
📸 In the 1st photo, you can see the #AntarcticPeninsula, which is almost 1300 km

📸 The 2nd photo is the coast of #Pravda near the #DavisSea. This part of the mainland is more difficult to discern, as it is 1700 km away from the viewpoint in straight line, and white clouds easily merge with the snow and ice cover. The first Russian station called #Mirny.
📸 In the third photo, you can see the #EnderbyLand. On the coast of the #CosmonautsSea are the #Molodezhnaya polar stations (Russia) and #MountVechernaya (Republic of Belarus).
