Look at that wonderfully hooked tentacle of the Outer Cape.

On Twitter, astronaut Douglas Wheelock often passes along stunning images of our world below.

Last week, he passed along this shot of Cape Cod and the Islands from his recently returned NASA colleagues on International Space Station Expedition 26.

Wheelock served as commander of Expedition 25, which landed last fall. Expedition 26, commanded by Scott Kelly, the brother-in-law of Ariz. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, landed March 16.
