Earth at Night View from ISS
Really cool video of the Earth at night as viewed from the ISS. I really like seeing all of the lightning storms.

I love watching the aurora from low earth orbit, it is so spectacular.  Lightning, too.  And sunrise/set.  And city lights, cloud formations, mountains, meteors, land, sea, ice, atmosphere, the black sky, my floating packet of M&Ms, spinning, spinning, barfing, I don't like space, too much space, I wanna go home!
In my world of sleepers, everything will be erased.
I'll be your religion, your only endless ideal.
Slowly we crawl in the dark.
Swallowed by the seductive night.

iirc the russians will take you up there for the small fee of 40 million usd.
I can no longer sit back and allow communist infiltration, communist indoctrination, communist subversion, and the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

OH YOU DON'T SAY! I'M SURE GLAD YOU CLEARED THAT UP. BEFORE READING YOUR POST I ACTUALLY BELIEVED THAT THE BP TEAM HIRED A FULL ORCHESTRA AND CHOIR TO RECORD CUSTOM MUSIC FOR THEM. I MEAN IT'S NOT LIKE THE DEVS HAVE SAID MANY TIMES THAT THEY GET THEIR MUSIC FROM OTHER SOURCES, AND IT'S NOT LIKE THE MUSIC IS CREDITED IN BP ITSELF, AND IT'S NOT LIKE THE YOUTUBE VIDEO DESCRIPTION GIVES THE REAL SOURCE OF THE SONG EITHER.
[/cruise control]

I just said that because seeing as BP is a well-liked mod around here, I thought people would associate the song with the mod and think it's cool to see it used in something else space related. I forgot that it's more important to prove people wrong around here than to enjoy anything. All posts must be factually correct. No joking is allowed ever.  :doubt:
