This time Samantha Cristoforetti , who is aboard the International Space Station for the recent mission with the European Space Agency (ESA), has chosen Naples as the protagonist of her space photo!

The images taken from the station always inspire awe , and this time, too, the photo is quickly making the rounds around the world. Twitter is the platform that hosted the photograph, along with the astronaut's words , "How beautiful, how beautiful, the city of Pullecenella . "

It is no coincidence that Cristoforetti chose to immortalize Naples, since we remember that her career began right here in our lands, precisely in 2001 in Pozzuoli at the Air Force Academy, with her thesis discussed at the Federico II University of Naples, concluded with an excellent 110/110 cum laude.

Samantha Cristoforetti's Twitter post features two photos : one captures Naples at night , with the lights illuminating its landscape. An incredible aspect of this shot is undoubtedly Vesuvius, which resembles a "black hole" seen from above.

The other photo, however, is a daytime one and captures the vastness of the sea that embraces Naples along with a few soft clouds hovering over Vesuvius.
