From Naoko Yamazaki, a former astronaut aboard the International Space Station. She is a member of the Earthshot Prize Council.
When astronauts who have been into space meet, we inevitably talk about that first look down at Earth and our initial thought tends to be the same -- that our world is beautiful. It is an awe-inspiring and magical experience looking down, but it is tinged with unease when you sense how fragile our world is.
