Astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti took a break from her work at the International Space Station to post a Star Trek selfie that may put all others to shame. On Friday, the ISS astronaut shared the above selfie on Twitter of her dressed as Captain Janeway from Star Trek: Voyager. That cargo craft she’s pointing at is the SpaceX Dragon, which delivers both crew, supplies — and most importantly — the space station’s new espresso machine aptly titled the ISSpresso.

Cristoforetti lives aboard the ISS as part of the Futura mission. She and her crew’s responsibilities are to conduct scientific experiments that cannot be performed on Earth. While drinking delicious space coffee, of course.
