I know that your hair looked super awesome when you decided to snap that selfie in the girl’s bathroom of your local Target. Yes, your face looks super cute – I love the way you pursed your lips. Brilliant.

But your selfies suck compared to space selfies.

Luca Parmitano is an Italian astronaut, currently aboard the International Space Station – and he’s just completed a spacewalk. Luckily, we have pictures.

This is nothing new for Parmitano, who’s been taking photos from his spacewalk for the past 18 hours or so.

Honestly – space, science, photos, social media…it’s just so damn cool.
