British astronaut Tim Peake of the European Space Agency (ESA) runs the London Marathon aboard the space station on April 24, 2016. As part of the London Marathon, which is Britain's biggest mass participation race, the 44-year-old spaceman saw London's roads under his feet in real time on an iPad as, 400 kilometers below him, more than 37,000 runners simultaneously pounded the streets. Peake covered the distance in 3:35:21, the fastest marathon in space although a world away from the time recorded by the real race winner. (Photo/Agencies)
