The pictures of ISS, added to Google Street View, were clicked by Thomas Prequest with, it was utterly impracticable for creating a panoramic 360-degree view of International Space Station (ISS). Hence, its team joined hand with the US-based pioneering space agency NASA as well as the Marshall Space Centre and successfully created a “gravity-free method” for clicking pictures of the ISS with its onboard equipment.Thomas is the most vital part of this groundbreaking endeavor assisted NASA and Google to collect images of ISS.
