Astonishing images show Hurricane Gabrielle from space

Astronaut Jonny Kim has shared jaw-dropping images of Hurricane Gabrielle.
Captured from aboard the International Space Station, the pictures posted Tuesday, Sept. 23, show the vast storm system churning across the Atlantic.
The hurricane rapidly strengthened from a Category 1 hurricane to a Category 4 in less than 30 hours, and is currently tracking north-east in the central North Atlantic.
Posing no immediate threat to Bermuda or the US coast, it continues to generate high surf and rip current risks along the eastern seaboard.
Kim, a former US Navy SEAL and physician before joining NASA’s astronaut corps, has described watching such natural events from orbit as both awe-inspiring and sobering.
