Today's Smile Post - International Space Station on UStream

(Note from Dinar Recaps - With everything bad happening around us these days, we are starting a daily post, with a glimmer of hope, or distraction for a few minutes. Leave comments below if you have some good ideas for additional posts. If you like this cam, consider bookmarking this page.)

Note: Live video from the International Space Station includes internal views when the crew is on-duty and Earth views at other times. The video is accompanied by audio of conversations between the crew and Mission Control. This video is only available when the space station is in contact with the ground.

During "loss of signal" periods, viewers will see a blue screen. Since the station orbits the Earth once every 90 minutes, it experiences a sunrise or a sunset about every 45 minutes. When the station is in darkness, external camera video may appear black, but can sometimes provide spectacular views of lightning or city lights below.

Looking for high definition views of Earth from the space station? Visit the ISS HD Earth Viewing Experiment (HDEV) on UStream or look for NASA Live: Earth Views From the Space Station on YouTube.
