The Stars & Planet Earth: Orbital Night Activities | International Space Station
Expedition 73 flight engineer and Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) astronaut Kimiya Yui: "This shows the North Star setting. From the International Space Station, it rises and sets each time it passes over the equator. Please watch while using the Big Dipper's large ladle as a guide to find the North Star."
Views of Earth at night have been a curiosity for the public and a tool of fundamental research for at least 25 years. They have provided a broad, beautiful picture, showing how humans have shaped the planet and lit up the darkness.
