Awesome shot from space! Thanks @Astro_Soichi for posting these great pictures.

灰色の密集・・怖い。あの中に飛び込めばカラフルなのかしらん？

So much polution!!!! :X

@mojo1647 I know that is due to the way the astronaut has held the camera when he had taken the picture. I have checked approximately what can be seen using the NYC online map.

@PC0101, not quite Wall Street in your Manhattan link, south is up and it reaches only 14th St and Union Square... 8-) Thank you again for your research.

Soichi can't land here, but you can: JFK airport seen from space, hi-res here: ftp://eol.jsc.nasa.gov/ESC_large_ISS016_ISS016-E-36248.JPG

If you like NYC: Broadway, Columbia University, Wall Street all that can be seen here. ftp://eol.jsc.nasa.gov/ESC_large_ISS017_ISS017-E-9165.JPG

@jpereirag It certainly is glass. The manufacturer Alena Space tells this: Each window is composed of two 25-mm thick panes with two thinner panes for damage protection from the inside and the outside.

@jpereirag Details on the cupola are here: http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/gallery/images/station/cupola/html/jsc2004e42739.html
