In celebration of Earth Day, NASA presents images of Earth captured by cameras aboard the International Space Station. Traveling at an approximate speed of 17,500 miles per hour, the space station orbits Earth every 90 minutes from an altitude of approximately 220 miles, and can be seen from Earth with the naked eye. Its crew experiences 16 sunrises and sunsets each day.

  • 1:56 is that the Baja California peninsula?

  • No that's not a shadow. Looks like just a smudge on the camara lens or something. Even if the ISS did cast a shadow, it would be so tiny that you would never see it. The ISS is miles above those clouds.

  • looks like it

  • Feel the silence
