NASA astronaut Scott Kelly is renowned for sharing breathtaking photos of the earth from his post in the International Space Station. He often attributes the hashtag #YearInSpace to his mesmerizing pictures, which chronicle the 342 days he’s planned to spend in orbit.
As Winter Storm Jonas totally ravaged the east coast Friday evening into Saturday morning, Kelly might’ve had the best view of anyone. And without all the snow and blizzard-like conditions. He shared several pics of the mayhem below, and, well, WHOA.

Lucky you’re not shoveling out of 2+ feet right now like the rest of us right now, Capt. Kelly.
Godspeed, good sir.
