Astronomy Picture of the Day

Good morning RP. Today's video stream is titled "A Live View from the International Space Station." Four High-Definition Earth Viewing (HDEV) cameras were deployed to the International Space Station (ISS) in 2014, and when working provide continuous live video feeds looking at our planet. The featured live view will appear black when it is nighttime on the Earth below, but the space station's rapid 90-minute orbit compresses this dark time into only 45 minutes. The present location of the ISS above the Earth can be found at https://eol.jsc.nasa.gov/ESRS/HDEV/ (second screen down).
