Summary edit

Description
English: This video was taken by the crew of Expedition 29 on board the International Space Station. The sequence of shots was taken October 18, 2011 from 07:09:06 to 07:27:42 GMT, on a pass from just south of Alaska to eastern Cuba. The camera used for this imagery was north-facing, so the Aurora Borealis stay visible throughout the video. Lights from southern Canada show up before passing into central North America. Through the clouds, the peninsula of Michigan can be seen, with Chicago brightly lit at the south end of Lake Michigan. A few lightning storms can be seen in the large cloud mass over the Central United States. Finally, many large cities can be seen on the East Coast of the United States, including Atlanta, Georgia. Near the end of the video, the eastern half of the Florida peninsula can be seen, as well as the lighter shallow waters of the Bahamas.
Čeština: Video natočené dne 18. října 2011 z paluby Mezinárodní vesmírné stanice (ISS) při letu jižním směrem od Aljašky k východní Kubě. Kamera byla nasměrována na sever, kde je zřetelně vidět polární záři a normální atmosferická bouře je pozorovatelná v okamžiku, kdy stanice míjí město Chicago a jižní okraj Michiganského jezera v pozadí.

Polski: Film zarejestrowany 18 października 2011 roku przez załogę Ekspedycji 29 z pokładu Międzynarodowej Stacji Kosmicznej, gdy przelatywała ona znad południowej Alaski nad wschodnią Kubę. Ponieważ aparat fotograficzny był skierowany na północ, widoczna jest północna zorza polarna. Widać też burze, gdy stacja mija Chicago i południowy kraniec jeziora Michigan.
