Video: A French astronaut shoots an impressive aurora borealis from space

Aurora Borealis is one of the most sought-after light phenomena on Earth. They appear at an altitude of about 80 to 130 kilometers above the earth’s surface. The sun creates a plasma made up of charged particles. The Earth’s magnetic field draws these particles into the upper atmosphere, where energy is released in the form of light.

French astronaut Thomas Pesquet has been working on the International Space Station since the end of April this year and is to spend a total of six months there.
