Скачать или смотреть Earth at Night from Space in 8K | ISS Orbit on May 17, 2025

Captured on May 17, 2025 in stunning 8K resolution, this real-time orbital timelapse takes you on a breathtaking nighttime journey aboard the International Space Station.

As the ISS flies silently at 28,000 km/h, the camera captures the Earth's surface bathed in starlight — city lights sparkle below, lightning flickers within clouds, and the thin blue curve of the atmosphere glows faintly against the void.

This particular orbital pass begins above the Pacific Northwest of the United States and arcs southward across the Americas, passing over:

United States, Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Paraguay, and Argentina.

Entirely real and unaltered, this timelapse is composed of high-resolution photos taken from low Earth orbit during the night — revealing Earth as a luminous, living planet seen from the edge of space.
