Stunning video of the earths beauty...

www.youtube.com...#!

. 'Many wonders are visible when flying over the Earth at night. A compilation of such visual spectacles was captured recently from the International Space Station (ISS) and set to rousing music. Passing below are white clouds, orange city lights, lightning flashes in thunderstorms, and dark blue seas. On the horizon is the golden haze of Earth's thin atmosphere, frequently decorated by dancing auroras as the video progresses. The green parts of auroras typically remain below the space station, but the station flies right through the red and purple auroral peaks. Solar panels of the ISS are seen around the frame edges. The ominous wave of approaching brightness at the end of each sequence is just the dawn of the sunlit half of Earth, a dawn that occurs every 90 minutes.'

Hi and Welcome, Hope you enjoy ATS.
Yes the Earth is beautifull, but look how much light pollution there is, this is a big problem that shouldn't be underestimated. I wish we would take this problem more seriously.

This is how the night would look if there was no light pollution.

Welcome to the forums. You will be both liked and disliked, supported and flamed.

But don't back down, whatever you do. Unless, of course, you're proven wrong.

Enjoy your stay.

Welcome to ATS...I'd copy to save what you posted here....this is the intro forum, the MODS will not allow your first thread to remain here.

Welcome

The Introduction Forum is for New Member Introductions only.

The Introduction Forum is for introductions… To tell something about you; not to start a thread about a topic. ATS has a twenty post requirement before a new member can start a thread on the myriad of ATS fora… “Intro threads” that are really “topic threads” will be removed. Twenty may sound like a lot, but it won’t take any time at all (especially if you start a really good introduction thread

). The minimum post requirement is there to give you a chance to acclimate to how ATS operates… And what constitutes quality content contribution (and maybe what doesn’t

). The bottom line is that your intro thread is about your favorite topic… You!


You need 20 contributing posts to start a topical thread.

Im sorry to say but this topic has a number of existing threads already:
