"One of the most mesmerizing videos I've ever seen."
Locations in the order they appear: 1 A Jump over the Terminator (line that separates daylight and night) 2 Sarychev Volcano 3 From Turkey to Iran 4 Hurricane Irene Hits the U.S. 5 Indian Ocean to Pacific Ocean Through the Cupola 6 Central Great Plains at Night 7 Aurora Borealis over the North Atlantic Ocean 8 Aurora Borealis from Central U.S. 9 Up the East Coast of North America 10 Myanmar to Malaysia 11 Western Europe to Central India 12 Middle East to the South Pacific Ocean 13 Aurora Borealis over Europe 14 City Lights over Middle East 15 European City Lights 16 Northwest coast of U.S. to Central South America at Night 17 Moonglow over Canada and Northern U.S. 18,19,20 Stars from the Pacific Ocean 21 Stars and the Milky Way over the Atlantic 22,23 The Milky Way and Storms over Africa.
Footage Note: The slower video represents a closer resemblance to the true speed of the International Space Station; this footage was shot at one frame per second. All time-lapse sequences were taken by the astronaunts onboard the International Space Station (ISS). All footage has been color graded, denoised, deflickered, slowed down and stabilized. Clips were then complied and converted to 1080 HD at 24 frames/sec. The ISS orbits the planet about once every 90 mins at an altitude of about 350 km / 217 miles.
The yellow/greenish line that you see over the earth is "airglow," the very weak emission of light by a planetary atmosphere.
