Room with a look: Check this amazing Aurora from ISS

There are some amazing views there, such as hotels that allow you to see the horizon of New York City and resorts with great views of the mountains or the ocean. But there are few places with a great view like the International Space Station. On Wednesday, the astronaut Don Betett – also Famous photographer and Inventor of Zero-G. -Take a great video of ISS time -category while it is on top over Aurora.

Video, It can be shown on XIt is about 50 seconds in length. It shows ISS orbit around the Earth. It is a wonderful snapshot of itself, but about the 27 -second brand, Ura begins to appear from the left. After a few seconds, viewers are received with a flowing fog that covers part of the ground.

After that, the Earth is mired in green glow that looks like something from a movie or video game. Speed ​​with Urara, leaving the camera width, and POV is extended to space.

Despite her blurry appearance, Urara Burialis is nothing but something. The glowing effect occurs due to the interaction between the solar wind of the sun and the magnetic field of the Earth. These reactions often occur when the sun emanates from the mass ejaculation, which greatly comes out plasma in the Earth’s magnetic field.

with The sun is in the maximum solar energy and middle Urra seasonIt may be just a matter of time before these green lights extend down to the United States, As we saw last year.

Transfer back across space

Pettit managed to get a video interval because ISS is currently flying back. It does not usually do it, but the space station expected the company. Tuesday, Soyuz MS-27 launched a spacecraft With NASA astronaut Johnny Kim and Russian astronaut Sergey Resikov and Alexei Zubitsky, with the final destination is ISS. The entire space station flipped 180 degrees in facilitating the fusion maneuver, which was Successful completion 3 hours after launch.

In addition to stirring 180 degrees, ISS intentionally reduces its height, as it alluded by Peetit in a tweet when he said “changes in height, change in the latitude.” Although this is not an ISS maneuver often, it is almost implemented every time a Soyuz spacecraft is launched to ISS. With a slight decrease in height (it is usually about one kilometer) and re -guidance, it allows the Soyuz to dock a few hours of launch, instead of a longer period like some other spacecraft.
