ISS Astronaut takes pictures of MLB parks from space
Terry Virts has never let his many duties aboard the International Space Station get in the way of broadcasting his baseball fandom at every opportunity, whether it's repping for his hometown Orioles or paying a cosmic tribute to Jackie Robinson.
But this might be his most ambitious project yet: For the past couple of weeks, Virts has been taking photos of different MLB parks from a window on the ISS, posting them to Twitter and Instagram and challenging fans to guess which location is which using the hashtag #ISSPlayBall:
Is this city Cincinnati, Houston, or Atlanta from #ISS? #ISSPlayBall fans, tweet your choice, click to view answer. pic.twitter.com/iJ8Am313X0
