A spectacular display of the Southern Lights has left space enthusiasts amazed after NASA astronaut Jessica Meir shared a stunning timelapse video filmed from aboard a SpaceX Dragon spacecraft.
The footage offers a rare view of the aurora australis from orbit, showing bright green ribbons of light flowing and twisting across Earth's atmosphere beneath the spacecraft. Unlike the view seen from the ground, the lights appeared to stretch across the planet below, creating a mesmerising display that looked almost alive.
