— -- Remarkable before-and-after photos show Hurricane Irma's impact on Turks and Caicos, which was devastated by the monster storm earlier this week.

The photos, posted by NASA astronaut Randy Bresnik on his official Twitter account, show how the shoreline of the island shifted in the aftermath of the hurricane, which left at least 27 people dead in the Caribbean.

"What a difference a week makes," Bresnik wrote.
