FRANCE: Astronaut Scott Kelly captures a stirring image of a glowing aurora that makes the planet look like a fantasy wonderland seen from afar.
There’s a disturbance in the atmosphere and it’s gorgeous. NASA astronaut Scott Kelly took a moment out of his year-long mission aboard the International Space Station to share this image of an aurora lighting up the Earth’s horizon.
Astronauts have photographed auroras from orbit before, but this is a particularly nice image due to the striking layers showing the Earth, aurora glow, star field and the outside of the station looking like fingertips across the bottom.
Kelly took the photo on August 15 and NASA released it as an Image of the Day on Tuesday.
