Default Nikon D3 from space - Aurora Australis Observed from the International Space Station

http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/IOT...8&src=eoa-iotd

"Among the views of Earth afforded astronauts aboard the International
Space Station (ISS), surely one of the most spectacular is of the aurora.
These ever-shifting displays of colored ribbons, curtains, rays, and spots
are most visible near the North (aurora borealis) and South (aurora
australis) Poles as charged particles (ions) streaming from the Sun (the
solar wind) interact with Earth's magnetic field."

1/6 second at ISO 6400, EXIF data in the full image:
