Take a break from Election Day chaos with these breathtaking photos from orbit
· Nov 3, 2020 · NottheBee.com

Today is a different sort of day. It's a referendum on the future of the United States. Election years are usually tumultuous, but 2020 has been a non-stop cage fight leading up to this very day.

Millions of us will be watching the results roll in, and Not The Bee will provide you with as much sardonic humor and splendorous updates as humanly possible.

That being said, if you need a break today, here are some amazing NASA photos of our planet taken by astronauts onboard the International Space Station. While cities across the nation board their windows in anticipation for record levels of MoStLy-PeAcEfUl protesting, these pictures are a stark reminder to be still today and know there is a God. He is exalted above the heavens and the earth, which testify to his eternal power and divine nature.

Enjoy:
