4K EARTH'S SPACE ORBIT - JAN 3, 2012 (Ungraded): South Atlantic Ocean to Iran. Time lapse from unaltered photos taken by astronauts. HighRes NASA JPEGs muxed into PhotoJPEG video without re-encoding and post-processing. This clip retains 100% of original image quality including camera artifacts. ISS flying in Earth's orbit from the South Atlantic Ocean to western Iran, just west of the Caspian Sea. The first half of the video is over the Atlantic Ocean, with various cloud patterns seen over the water. As the ISS travels northeast toward the Gulf of Guinea near Africa, the video transitions from the greener parts of central Africa to the clay-colored sands of the desert in northern Africa. The pass ends over western Iran. (av21994u)
