There's a beautiful interview somewhere on YouTube where a student asks an Astronaut on the ISS whether they look for heaven through their windows and the guy pauses briefly then replies with something like "we position ourselves so we can see how heavenly the Earth looks from above, but as for the 'heavens'... well... we don't have any windows that look in that direction."
It's one of the more beautiful things I've ever heard a human say... sampled it a few years ago and have never done it justice.
