EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking print captures the ethereal beauty of the Aurora Australis, as seen from aboard the International Space Station on September 17th, 2011. The mesmerizing dance of vibrant colors across the night sky is a testament to the wonders of our solar system. From this unique vantage point in space, astronauts have been able to capture awe-inspiring images like this one, showcasing the extraordinary phenomena that occur beyond Earth's atmosphere. The International Space Station serves as both a scientific laboratory and a home for astronauts from around the world who work together to expand our understanding of space. The vivid hues of green and purple in this image are created by charged particles colliding with atoms in Earth's upper atmosphere. These collisions release energy in the form of light, resulting in these stunning displays known as auroras. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of humanity's ongoing exploration and fascination with outer space. It serves as a reminder that even amidst vast darkness, there exists an abundance of natural wonders waiting to be discovered and understood. Science Photo Library has once again captured an incredible moment through their lens, allowing us all to appreciate the sheer magnificence that lies beyond our planet's boundaries.
