So many times the views from the @Space_Station cupola give us pause as we absorb the indescribable beauty in front of us. A time lapse of a rich star field cascading down and peeking through the Earth’s translucent upper atmosphere several weeks ago was just such a moment.

Soak in the visual beauty but also sit with the moving original score “Satellite Dance” that my friend, Chicago based guitarist, Thomas Clippert composed for this video. His performance is magical. Enjoy.

PS: Look for a collection of brighter objects dancing horizontally across the frame near the end of the video. These are satellites catching the sun’s rays as they orbit the Earth.
