Dublin - yisser looking well, so yis are
We blame Commander Chris Hadfield, but it seems as if everybody who goes into sqace this weather is pretty snap happy.
The latest astronaut to tweet pictures back to earth is Italian Luca Parmitano, who just happened to be passing over Dublin during a (rare) break in the clouds this morning.

The English translation reads - but we think you'll agree it sounds better in Italian.
Luca is a European Space Agency (ESA) astronaut currently orbiting Earth aboard the International Space Station (ISS). It's a first space mission for the former Italian Air Force test pilot, who hails from Catania in Sicily.
Here's what he looks like - and something tells us we'll be hearing from him again.
