Soichi Noguchi's Top 15 Most Beautiful Photos, Tweeted From The Space

Soichi Noguchi is a Japanese aeronautical engineer who is currently a part of the Soyuz TMA-17 crew and Expedition 22 to the International Space Station and it seems that he is one of the first scientists who got an excellent idea to share what he sees from space with internet users.

Soichi recently started tweeting from the space and he decided to show us some of his best photos taken from there which he shares with us almost every day via Twitpic. Here you can see the list of some of the most beautiful photos taken by Soichi Noguchi from International Space Station.

Music Painting

This very creative video was made to support the initiative to stop global warming. As the artist draws the notes on the music sheet they come to life and you can hear the pleasant music. The second theme that goes on behind the musical notes is the interplay between the nature and our human involvement on this planet (i.e. buildings, cars, cranes). Enjoy the beautiful art, calming music and an important message at the end of the video.
