NASA astronaut Terry Vrits has captured some breathtaking images and videos of India from the space.

The astronaut posted a couple of pictures of ‘moonlit clouds’ over the southeast coastline of India on his Twitter page.

Another interesting picture posted by the astronaut asks people to name the city in India.

Apart from the photos, Vrits also posted some Vine clips that include a massive lightning storm, the India's east coast and the ‘Ganges’ drifting by on the left.
