ISS030-E-061267 (25 Jan. 2012) --- Aurora Borealis steals the scene in this nighttime photograph shot from the International Space Station as the orbital outpost flew over the Midwest recently. Cloud cover makes it difficult to identify the cities that are within the captured area. The spacecraft was above south central Nebraska when the photo was taken. The "look" angle is north to northeastward.
