Summary
| Description |
English: This long-duration photograph taken with a station camera uses increased sensitivity and shows the Northrop Grumman Cygnus space freighter firing its engine to raise the International Space Station's orbital altitude. The reboosts counteract atmospheric drag and prepare for the space station upcoming spacecraft activities. The orbital outpost was soaring 263 miles above the Indian Ocean with a field of star trails above and the Aurora Australis below. |
