The Chicago Cubs ended Major League Baseball's longest championship drought by beating the Cleveland Indians 8-7 in Game 7 of the World Series on Wednesday night (Nov. 2).

Soon after the win, NASA and a number of astronauts reacted on Twitter. From the space agency (@NASA):

Congratulations to World Series champions Chicago Cubs! In your honor, here's a pic of Chicago from space.
From HiRISE (High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment) on NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter:
Congratulations, Cubs! We at Mars salute you!

From Doug Wheelock:

Congratulations Cubbies! Great season for both of these iconic American cities Chicago and Cleveland! An out of this world World Series!
From Mike Massimino:

From Mark Vande Hei:
