Over Earth: What Night-Flying the ISS Looks Like

Nature-made lightning -- and man-made lighting -- enhance this surreal time-lapse view from the International Space Station. The video was created using astronaut photography that anyone may download. Credit: Infinity Imagined http://infinity-imagined.tumblr.com / NASA

Hey VideosFromSpace i have a question. What do you think about comet Elenin, many people think it could be bad. Personally, i think its a load of bullshit but i always get sucked into this sort of stuff when im researching space. Anyway great video as always

@BankerChief That comet, known to astronomers as C/2010 X1, does not appear to be anything to worry about. It's in a very long orbit (a visitor from the far reaches of the Solar System) and made it's closest approach to the Sun about 10 days ago. Assuming that the gravitational forces of that encounter did not tear it apart, the closest C/2010 X1 will get to Earth is just slightly nearer than the orbit of Venus. We cannot explain why some people gravitate to doomsday fairy tales.

Way cool. What's the fps and how fast is the ISS moving? Talk about around the world in minutes....! One can clearly see the rich from the poor countries (dark vs. bright).

too bad the universe explodes at the end, i hope they're ok

@XFearedWarriorX You can't see them because of the light from the earth, on a clear night with no clouds, you can't always see the stars.

[XFearedWarriorX]

where are the stars?
