Tim Peake photo of South Africa

Tim, who’s currently living and working on the Space Station for six months, uploaded this photo to Facebook an hour ago.

He said: “Lovely pass-by South Africa yesterday – still in awe of Eddie Izzard running 27 marathons across that stretch of land!”

Tim is himself an enthusiastic cross-country runner. And when he’s not zooming around the planet, he enjoys running… as well as skiing and scuba diving.

This photo is from expedition 46/47 for the European Space Agency (ESA) astronaut and test pilot.
