iss073e0880390 (Oct. 13, 2025) --- This long-exposure photograph captures a yellow-green airglow blanketing Earth as an orbital sunrise begins to illuminate the planet’s upper atmosphere. The Milky Way stretches across the star-filled night sky in the background, while the golden-hued Rassvet module and the Soyuz MS-27 crew spacecraft—docked to the Prichal module, itself attached to the Nauka science module—dominate the foreground. The International Space Station was orbiting 268 miles above the South Atlantic Ocean at approximately 2:45 a.m. local time when this photograph was taken.
