While flying over a stormy Africa, astronauts aboard the International Space Station captured stunning imagery of the Milky Way and the comet that lived. (Original Music by Mark C.

  • Many people on earth were taking pictures of the comet, I can see their flashes...

  • I don't quite get it guys. Can't seem to see the comet.

  • Cool, there's Elevator smooth music in space.

  • Its amazing how videos like these receive such little attention. Forget the oscars, NASA is where its at! great video

  • earth is just buzzing with activity

  • who the hell can dislike this. this video is amazing

  • @Archer7Tadayoshi That's easy to do on earth, not so sure it would be easy to do in space. Remember - this is on the ISS. I would expect to see part of the station structure, unless the video was shot while the astronaut was not actually on board the station.

  • I have some suggestions for future photography, cover nearby equipment with black cloth to avoid light reflection issues, because I saw some reflected equipment in the video.
