Flyby Earth
See what it's like to fly over the Earth as an astronaut in the space station! Amazing 60 second snapshot of the world as we know it, from a perspective seldom seen. The bright city lights almost make it look volcanic and the lightning displays are pretty awesome. You really get a sense of how fragile our thin little atmosphere is from this angle. Beautiful!

That's No Moon
NASA: Space Station May Be Evacuated By Late Nov.
After the russian re-supply rocket failed to reach orbit last week, the situation is looking a little more hairy for the members of the international space station. They have enough fuel and supplies to last a while longer but if the russian rockets cannot be functional by November, the station will need to be evacuated for the safety of the crew. Maybe russia can pay for the shuttle to make one last trip up until they can get their act together.
