Putting a spin on astrophotography⁣ 🌀:

⁣Stars leave streaks of light in concentric circles in this view from the International Space Station (@ISS) on March 16, 2012. To create this composite long exposure, NASA astronaut Don Pettit (@astro_pettit) combined multiple 30-second exposures from a mounted camera on the station into one image.⁣

Image description: A portion of an ISS module is pictured in the top center of the image. Around it, lines in circular shapes make star trails. Below the star trails, Earth’s airglow hovers above its surface in shades of yellow and green. On Earth’s surface, lines of the light make out the planet’s rotation in shades of yellow and blue.⁣
