Seen above in this picture is the Perseid Meteor Shower. Astronaut Ron Garan took this picture aboard the International Space Station. He preferred to describe this picture as "What a shooting star looks like from space." Personally, I agree with this statement. This provides a unique view of a shooting star that not very many people get to see. This picture is so alluring because we also get to see a view of the Earth that not many pictures show. It shows the exosphere that is also surrounded by a greenish halo. This is truly an awesome picture.
