This video was taken by the crew of Expedition 30 on board the International Space Station. The sequence of shots was taken March 25, 2012 from 11:04:11 to 11:45:06 GMT, on a pass from western Quebec to the Southern Ocean, near the Kerguelen Islands. This video begins over Quebec, where most of the ground is still covered in snow. The ISS travels southeast over the Atlantic Ocean, before reaching the Canary Islands and the clay-colored desert of northwestern Africa. The pass continues southeast over the Gulf of Guinea and south-central Africa, which is heavily covered by clouds. The pass ends over the Southern Ocean.
