NASA astronaut Matthew Dominick captured this incredible image of a brilliant red and green aurora in Earth’s thermosphere from the International Space Station (ISS). It was taken from the SpaceX Dragon Endeavour spacecraft on Oct. 7, 2024 around 273 miles above the Indian Ocean.
Expedition 72 Flight Engineer Matthew Dominick dedicated much of his personal time to photography, amassing nearly 500,000 photos of Earth as well as snapshots of life aboard the International Space Station. This is a very impressive feat considering that he traveled 99,708,603 total statute miles around our home planet.
