This is the caption accompanying the image taken from space by Thomas Pesquet. A few weeks after Guadeloupe, it was Martinique’s turn to honor the French astronaut.
On Friday, he posted a picture of our island. We see the Martinique Islands, barely hidden by a blanket of light clouds.

Via his Instagram account, he also expressed a desire to learn more about our island.
