Stunning Time-Lapse Footage From The International Space Station Showing The Earth

This is just – well subhan Allah – amazing. Watch it and you will understand. This is time-lapse footage taken by the International Space Station of Planet Earth. The footage was taken between August and October 2011.

The video shows the following:

  1. Aurora Borealis Pass over the United States at Night
  2. Aurora Borealis and eastern United States at Night
  3. Aurora Australis from Madagascar to southwest of Australia
  4. Aurora Australis south of Australia
  5. Northwest coast of United States to Central South America at Night
  6. Aurora Australis from the Southern to the Northern Pacific Ocean
  7. Halfway around the World
  8. Night Pass over Central Africa and the Middle East
  9. Evening Pass over the Sahara Desert and the Middle East
  10. Pass over Canada and Central United States at Night
  11. Pass over Southern California to Hudson Bay
  12. Islands in the Philippine Sea at Night
  13. Pass over Eastern Asia to Philippine Sea and Guam
  14. Views of the Mideast at Night
  15. Night Pass over Mediterranean Sea
  16. Aurora Borealis and the United States at Night
  17. Aurora Australis over Indian Ocean
  18. Eastern Europe to Southeastern Asia at Night

The original video is available from here, but I feel this version on Youtube (which is shown above) has a much better soundtrack.

Full screen this for the best effect, ideally watch it with the lights down. Subhan Allah it’s amazing.
