The crew at Concordia have not seen the Sun for over 40 days now and they are not even halfway through the Antarctic winter. In the northern hemisphere people are celebrating Midsummer so we invite you to share your sunny pictures with the crew in Concordia.
Post your images on the Flickr page For Concordia to share some summer sunshine with the 13 people living in the most remote, coldest, darkest place on Earth. To inspire you here are some of our favourite images from the last ESA astronauts in space.
