ISS Video

Earlier this school year we were tracking the whereabouts of the International Space Station. Click on the link to check out times and locations for Satellite Flybys.  Here are two very cool NASA videos aboard the ISS. The first video was taken over Canada and you can clearly see the aurora borealis, or northern lights. The second video was taken coming up the eastern United States. You can make out the major cities by the huge bright lights. Also the northern lights can be seen in the distance to the north. More information and videos can be found here.
