Explanation: Many wonders are visible when flying over the Earth at night. Such visual spectacles occur every day for astronauts in low Earth orbit, but the featured video captured several from the International Space Station (ISS) in 2011 and set them to rousing music. Passing below are white clouds, orange city lights, lightning flashes in thunderstorms, and dark blue seas. On the horizon is the golden haze of Earth's thin atmosphere, frequently decorated by dancing auroras as the video progresses. The green parts of auroras typically remain below the space station, but the station flies right through the red and purple auroral peaks. Solar panels of the ISS are seen around the frame edges. The ominous wave of approaching brightness at the end of each sequence is just the dawn of the sunlit half of Earth, a dawn that occurs every 90 minutes.

I noticed there are some places that don’t have lights. Interesting, thanks.
Imagine how the world would react were we to come across a planet that looked like ours.
I watched that video with that in mind and it gave me a new appreciation of what we have.
The heavens declare the glory of God.
You can literally see the waves of the Aurora Australis coming up over the horizon as the ISS approaches. I wonder how the flat-earthers explain this.
