On March 16th, 2013, Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield left Earth’s atmosphere for a third time to make history as the first Canadian Commander of the International Space Station (ISS). During his five months aboard the ISS, Commander Hadfield took hundreds of photographs and shared them using social media, catching the attention of the world.

This installation includes 40 of Colonel Chris Hadfield’s beautiful and at times awe-inspiring images, along with his original messages tweeted from space.
