Western Europe to Asia… with a spooky twist!

A series of nighttime photos were taken by ESA astronaut Paolo Nespoli to create this time-lapse of the Earth as seen from the Space Station.

In preparation for Halloween night, even the Moon (that spooky light rising from the horizon) has decided to join the party… dressing up as a zombie Automated Transfer Vehicle (ATV), ESA’s now retired cargo spaceship!
