Last month we published some pictures tweeted by Chris Hadfield, who is living aboard the International Space Station, or ISS, as a Flight Engineer on Expedition 34.
In March, he will become the first Canadian Commander of the ISS during Expedition 35.
Hadfield will be in orbit about 250 miles over Earth's surface for the next six months and has been tweeting about his journey on Twitter @Cmdr_Hadfield.
Here are a few fantastic images of world cities taken in the past couple of days:

"Cleveland, Toledo, Detroit, and the town where I was born, Sarnia Ontario."

"El Ejido, Spain - you can easily tell where the people live, even from orbit."
 |
"Japanese rice fields tidily blanketed with snow."

Bonus: "Noctilucent Cloud - rare super high altitude cloud, barely visible from Earth, seen at dawn in the mesosphere from ISS."
