Amazing volcanic activity seen from space
This May 23, 2006, photo released by NASA shows the eruption of Cleveland Volcano, Aleutian Islands, Alaska, as photographed by an Expedition 13 crew member on the International Space Station. The image captures the ash plume of the very short-lived eruption.

Amazing Timelapse of Earth
Science educator James Drake built this amazing timelapse video from the perspective of the International Space Station as it flew over North and South America.
He created this video by downloading a series of 600 photographs that were available online at the Gateway to Astronomy Photograph of Earth, and then stitching them together into a complete video.
