Stunning ISS view of earth from space footage

This ISS footage is just stunning, somehow i always thought you would be further away from the earths surface than this.

Love watching how the rising sun reflects off the solar panels. Cant wait to get to space to see this for myself.

Makes you realise we are all stuck on this blue ball together and all these petty human disagreements are irrelevant.

James Drake took 600 still photos from the International Space Station as it orbited the Earth, and created a fantastic time-lapse animation out of them. It must be seen to be appreciated; storms and cities fly past below in amazing clarity."
