A space station astronaut has captured jaw-dropping scenes over Earth.
NASA astronaut Jessica Meir also observed the Milky Way, lightning and fishing boats from the International Space Station.
She said on Wednesday, Sept. 16: "Southern Hemisphere Milky Way galaxy view from the Space Station cupola.
"This 3s exposure series captured two of my favorite cupola views, the particularly dense Milky Way galaxy as seen from the Southern Hemisphere, and the bright, colourful lights of squid fishing boats (here, the bright blue and green lights off the coast of China, Thailand and India).
Jessica added: "Look at what the light did now!"
