What a spectacular video from the International Space Station! In this Vine video posted to the space station’s account, the aurora borealis glows over the northern hemisphere as the space station flies up the East Coast of the United States… and the sun rises over Greenland. And what is that down there, below… easily recognizable in the beginning? None other than a sleeping Delmarva peninsula. Gorgeous!
Astronaut Barry "Butch" Wilmore posted the video on Feb 4th from 250 miles above the earth… at 17,000 miles per hour… and it’s not even blurry.
