The ISS image comes from August.

Auroras are also known as the northern lights or southern lights.

But I’m here for the drop-my-jaw-to-the-floor beauty of Pesquet’s image.

For the way the clouds swirl and Earth’s blue waters peek out from below.

For the glowing green radiance reminding me some magic is real.
