Star Trail Oval Art | International Space Station

Star Trail Oval Art | International Space Station

NASA astronaut Don Pettit: "Star trail out forward looking window. When observing Earth, I like the effect of an oval window. It adds a certain measure of aesthetics over that of a round window. However, when you are living in a metal can for six months at a time, I will be happy with any shape of window."

Image Details: Nikon Z9, 8mm fisheye, 30 second exposures at f2.8, ISO 640, assembled in Photoshop to make an effective 30 minute time exposure.
