In this breathtaking photograph we see the Bahamas from orbit on January 13, 2013. The photo was taken by a member of Expedition 34 aboard the International Space Station. Expedition 34 consisted of six crew members who were on the ISS from 18 November 2012 to 15 March 2013. The Bahamas is a country consisting of more than 3,000 islands, cays and islets in the Atlantic Ocean.
