Ever since Hurricane Milton made landfall yesterday in Florida, countless folks have taken to social media to share footage of the storm. Many of these videos and photos have showcased the immense power of this destructive storm. Each one provides us with a new point of view. That said, none are quite like the view of Hurricane Milton from space. Yes, that’s right, from space. Matthew Dominick has been serving as commander of a NASA crew since March 3, 2024. As a flight engineer, he’s getting the chance to conduct all sorts of science experiments at the International Space Station. Lucky for us, he has also been documenting incredible moments, too, like the total solar eclipse. Now, he’s sharing the stunning views he got to witness of Hurricane Milton.
