If you've been seriously
considering a space tourism trip, but the sputtering economy has left you a bit
shy of the $25 million needed for a ticket out of our atmosphere, fret no more.
You no longer need to be part of the .0001 percent, or wait another decade for
"spaceline" prices to drop in order to get that stunning view of
earth. Thanks to Tomislav Safundzic, an 18-year-old video editor from Croatia , you
can save yourself millions, avoid the huge hassle of finding a space suit, and
pass on the barf bag.
With the help of images from
NASA's Image Science and Analysis Laboratory, Safundzic created
this incredible time-lapse video of earthly flyovers using shots taken from the
International Space Station. The two minute journey includes incredible vistas
of our gorgeous marble. Along with incredible flyovers of land and sea, some of
the sights worth marveling include high-voltage thunderclouds, the neon glow of
the Aurora Borealis, and night-time lights of every continent. Everyone can
appreciate this perspective.
