on board the
International Space Station
. The sequence of shots was taken October 15, 2011 from 00:47:28 to 01:02:56 GMT, on a pass beginning over the North
Atlantic Ocean
, east of the Island of
Newfoundland
to the northern part of the
Red Sea
, over the
Gulf of Suez
and the
Sinai Peninsula
. At the beginning of the video, the
Aurora
Borealis can be seen in the far left along with clouds over the North Atlantic Ocean. Tracking south-east, the first view of lights is from the
United Kingdom
(
Ireland
, up-track from the UK, is under cloud), with cities like
Liverpool
and
London
showing up nicely. Across the
English Channel
, the cities of
Brussels
and
Rotterdam
(left) and
Paris
(brightly-lit city west of Brussels) all stand out through a network of smaller cities in Western Europe. The pass continues over the
snow
-covered
Alps
and to the Italian Peninsula, where
lightning
storms cover the southern half of the peninsula. The ISS then tracks over the
Mediterranean Sea
, with
Greece
to the left of track, northern
Africa
right of track, and the island of
Crete
. Finally, the pass finishes near the Nile River Delta and the Red Sea.
