iss054e022850 (Jan. 23, 2018) — NASA astronaut Mark Vande Hei photographed himself with his helmet visor up during a spacewalk that took place on Jan. 23, 2018. Though less dramatic than a selfie with the reflective visor down this picture could still be considered a “space-selfie.” He and NASA astronaut Scott Tingle spent seven hours and 24 minutes working outside the International Space Station for maintenance on the Canadarm2 robotic arm.
