Photography: ISS Star Trails


ISS Star Trails by NASA astronaut (Flight Engineer) Don Pettit

These stunning long exposure photographs were taken by astronaut Don Pettit during Expedition 31. While there are many photos like these taken from the perspective of the Earth’s surface, Pettit’s images are unique in that they incorporate the passing blur of entire illuminated cities, aurora, and the sporadic flashes of lightening from thunderstorms.
