In case you haven't heard, last night history was made. For the first time in 108 years, the Chicago Cubs won the World Series. Whether you're a baseball fan or not, it's a pretty momentous occasion.
Naturally, the folks at NASA thought so, too. To celebrate, NASA tweeted and shared a photo of Chicago as seen from the International Space Station at night.
Congratulations to #WorldSeries champions Chicago @Cubs! In your honor, here's a pic of #Chicago from space: https://t.co/Vd9RogVFkF #Cubs pic.twitter.com/gQUa9li1bQ

The image wasn't actually snapped during Cubs' fans late night festivities yesterday, though. NASA Expedition 47 Commander Tim Kopra captured the image back on April 5.
Still, it's a unique —and decidedly more peaceful — view of the Windy City. We bet the city was even brighter last night after the Cubs won their game.
