Astronaut on the International Space Station captures the Northern Lights – Stunning timelapse video

The images were recorded by astronaut Matthew Dominick

Newsroom August 21 12:48

Astronaut Matthew Dominick, currently on the International Space Station (ISS), captured an impressive video of the Northern Lights.

In the astronaut’s timelapse video, it shows the Moon setting and the Sun rising amid “streams of red and green auroras.”

The phenomenon was visible from space thanks to solar storms that created ideal conditions for the Northern Lights in the northern hemisphere.
