National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) astronaut Andrew J. “Drew” Feustel of Lake Orion, one of the crew aboard the International Space Station, shared an overhead image of the Mackinac Bridge on April 18, providing a new perspective of the size and marvel of the Michigan landmark, mlive reports.

This was the second time he took a photo of the bridge and posted it to Social Media as part of a photo gallery of various locations on Earth, including the desert in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, the East coast of the United States from South Carolina to Connecticut, and the Galapagos Islands.

“From a city in the desert to a bridge separating two huge lakes, the station crew has a unique vantage point to picture Earth’s natural and man-made features,” his April 18 post reads, according to the news agency.

Feustel is onboard the space station with fellow NASA astronaut Ricky Arnold and cosmonaut Oleg Artemyev of the Russian space agency Roscosmos.
