Taking to micro-blogging site Twitter, he shared the images that brilliantly captured the sunrise and sunset in space.

I love sunrises and sunsets. Can you see the bands of color? They remind me of the scripture in Psalm 30, “weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.” It seems darkest just before sunrise. I wish you all love and light. Goodnight from the @Space_Station. pic.twitter.com/YP9Hb3JZoH — Victor Glover (@AstroVicGlover) January 13, 2021

In his caption, the confessed that it reminded him of the scripture in Psalm 30. In the first picture, the sun is seen as a bright red speck of light in the centre of a black background. A curve of dim light is seen horizontal to it.
