This video was taken by the crew of Expedition 30 on board the International Space Station. The sequence of shots was taken January 23, 2012 from 08:04:13 to 08:17:25 GMT, on a pass from the Gulf of Mexico, west of the Yucatan Peninsula, to the North Atlantic Ocean, east of Newfoundland and Labrador. This video mainly focuses on the star field while the ISS travels over the eastern United States, Canada, and over the North Atlantic Ocean. Because of the rate at which the astronauts took the images, the video is sped up and therefore shows the rotation of the stars much more easily. The camera also captures the Aurora Borealis close to the ISS.
