NASA Shares Stunning Image of Southeast Asia from Space

The United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration (Nasa) has shared a breathtaking image of Southeast Asia on social media, capturing the attention of many. The image, taken by an astronaut aboard the International Space Station (ISS) at 12.42am, offers a unique perspective of the region from 257 miles above.

The image, which has been shared widely on social media platforms, features the city grids of Bangkok, Phnom Penh, Ho Chi Minh City, Kuala Lumpur, and Singapore, all glowing like jewels. The bright city grids are a stark contrast to the fishing boats dotting the Gulf of Thailand and the South China Sea.

The US Embassy of Kuala Lumpur shared the image on their Facebook page, describing it as a "stunning view from 257 miles above Southeast Asia!" The embassy's post received numerous likes and comments from followers, who were amazed by how clearly Malaysia could be seen from the ISS.

For Malaysians, the image was a rare reminder of how striking their country looks from above the clouds. The city of Kuala Lumpur, in particular, shines brightly in the image, with the Petronas Twin Towers standing tall against the backdrop of the city.

The image has also been praised by Nasa, with the organisation describing it as a "dazzling view" of the region. The US Embassy of Kuala Lumpur echoed this sentiment, stating that the image summarised Southeast Asia as "looking beautiful-even from space."

Despite the image's popularity, there are no search results providing information about the removal or timing of the photo from the ISS. However, the image has undoubtedly left a lasting impression on those who have seen it, offering a unique and awe-inspiring view of the region.
