This planet is getting smaller.

Shot from the ISS in Low Earth Orbit.  Fascinating video of the night side of our planet.  The auroras dance and play along the thin line of our atmosphere that is all that stands between us and the hostile universe outside.  Meanwhile, lightning filled storm clouds roll over darkened continents and clear skies reveal the light of civilization spread across the land.
