NASA tweets real 'Gravity' space pics


NASA is sharing real photos taken in space that look like they came straight out of the Oscar-nominated film Gravity.

Using the hashtag #RealGravity, the space agency, tweeting from its account @NASA, shows astronauts working on the International Space Station and scenes of Earth from space. NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, based in Maryland, also posted some amazing pictures on Flickr.

In one tweet, NASA notes that Gravity star and best actress nominee Sandra Bullock consulted with astronaut Cady Coleman to learn about life in space.
