Witness the magical spectacle of Nightglow at the Albuquerque Hot Air Balloon Fiesta in New Mexico, where the thin line between Earth's atmosphere and the rising or setting sun creates a breathtaking display. In the realm of space, observe the same phenomenon from the ISS, as the Earth's limb intersects a Soyuz spacecraft and the layers of our planet's atmosphere are illuminated by the sun's rays. Meanwhile, the Space Shuttle Atlantis captures the blue and white wonders of Earth from its payload bay, and the ISS solar array gleams against the cosmic backdrop. These wondrous sights remind us of the awe-inspiring beauty of our planet and the infinite wonders of the universe.
