Looking toward the south from an altitude of 400 kilometers, this stunning snapshot from orbit finds bright lights of Tokyo and cities across central and southern Japan, planet Earth shining upward through broken clouds. The spacefaring perspective was captured last July by astronaut Scott Kelly during his stay on board the International Space Station. Thin stripes of airglow follow the curve of the planet’s dark limb, while beyond lie stars of the constellation Centaurus and the southern sky. Their solar panels extended, a docked Soyuz (bottom) and Progress spacecraft are posed in the foreground. Kelly returned to planet Earth this week after his one-year mission in space.

在400公里的高度向南望去,這幅來自軌道的壯觀照片捕捉了東京及日本中南部城市的明亮燈光,地球透過破碎的雲層閃耀著光芒。這個太空視角是由宇航員Scott Kelly在去年七月於國際空間站拍攝的。微薄的空氣輝光沿著地球的黑暗邊緣彎曲,而在那之外,則是南天的半人馬座星群的星星。停泊的索尤茲(Soyuz)飛船和進步號(Progress)航天器在前景中展現著展開的太陽能面板。Kelly本週剛剛完成他的為期一年的太空任務回到地球。
