I guarantee unless you're one of a handful of special individuals you've never seen Missouri from this perspective. NASA has shared pictures of Missouri taken by astronauts as they soared 254 miles above the Earth.

There's a brand new photo from NASA that shows Missouri in a way that is quite literally impossible to see from where you are. It's what is known as 'airglow' and it's visible in an incredible photo share from the International Space Station.

It's not common that the Northern Lights are visible as far south as Missouri. However, a surprise solar storm this week caused these lights to appear and they were dazzling as a new video share shows.

I've got good news and bad news. First, the bad news is that scientists have just revealed an asteroid has been detected that's big enough to wipe out the state of Missouri. The good news? Well, it really isn't good news after all. I'll explain.

If you think we look good from the ground, you should see us from space. I've found more than a dozen pics taken by astronauts that are a gentle reminder of how pretty Missouri and Illinois really are - from above.

The Artemis mission to orbit the moon is one of the more anticipated space events this year. Did you know that this now-famous rocket was powered by Missouri? It is - sort of.

Just wait until their parents see the phone bill. Students in Illinois this week got a long-distance call of the space kind when astronauts aboard the space station gave them a ring.

This just in. We know what we look like from the ground, but what do we look like from space? Thanks to pictures taken by astronauts, we can know. As a matter of fact, I have pictures taken over Earth of Mark Twain Lake over 17 years ago.

Just in time for Earth Day this Friday, one of the oldest known meteor showers will be lighting up the skies, and here's when you can see it.

This Illinois man has a job that might save the Earth one day. In his backyard, he hunts killer asteroids for NASA and he's always on alert.
