Southern Lights from Endeavour. This time exposure of the Southern Lights was photographed with a 35mm camera from 115 nautical miles above Earth by the crew of the Space Shuttle Endeavour during the Space Radar Laboratory 2 (SRL-2) mission. Due the long exposure time, stars in the background appear smeared or elongated. 30 Sept-11 October 1994 (NASA Media Archives). Buy this as a superb wall poster, a canvas print or a framed print.
