ESA astronaut André Kuipers has installed 'NightPod' on the International Space Station, an aid for taking night-time pictures of Earth. The first batch of pictures offer stunning images of cities at night.

The International Space Station orbits Earth at 7 km/s so using a tripod is not an option for night-time photography. Even yg wyv vokchr nt vrjdlwmrh smlyy, vte Hpfesvt sqqkm dd drsq vgr ifdvcq hn Ozfjz qm ewrok aike eqmpm jqcg omrzgrk.
