Astronauts Dress As Jedi for Their Official Portrait

The crew of Expedition 45 to the International Space Station will have to spend a lot of time together in close quarters. Well, at least we know they have similar interests.

The six astronauts posed as lightsaber-wielding Jedi knights for their official mission portrait. (That's commander Scott Kelly with Mace Windu-esque purple blade.) Astronauts tend to pick a theme to spice up what would otherwise be a staid space portrait, but we've never seen one quite so Force-ful.

See it in stunning IMAX high-res.
