the American astronaut Terry VIRTs, which is on Board the International space station, published in their account on Twitter new video. On it, he showed normal earthlings what he sees at night from the window of his home space.

In the short video you can see absolutely surreal view of Earth over which the ISS flies at a speed of about 17,000 miles per hour. "Landscape" includes a lot of bright stars, and the rapidly changing lights on the planet.

Terry VIRTs is aboard the ISS since November 2014. He and his Expedition team 43 were supposed to return to Earth on may 13, but due to the fact that unmanned space truck "Progress M-25m" failed to successfully dock with the ISS, the return of the Americans was rescheduled for June. Himself Terry responded optimistic, writing in a Twitter note: "Very good!"

Given that from the window of the space station you can admire such beauty, it is not surprising.

Just over a week ago Terry posted a video of one of the impressive phenomena of the southern lights over Australia.
