An astronaut aboard the International Space Station took this photo of eastern Canada. The image was taken near the northernmost limit of the station’s inclined equatorial orbit, which tops out about 52 degrees north of the equator. The perspective includes a view of space station’s solar panels in the foreground, Earth’s horizon about 1,500 kilometers (930 miles) away, and celestial objects far in the distance. Lights, snow, and clouds brighten the winter scene on Earth.
