Space Station Science Picture of the Day for May 13, 2003

Just before ISS science officer Don Pettit left the space station this
month, he captured a remarkable picture of red auroras and star trails.
Swirling star trails are well-known to amateur astronomers on Earth; the
ones Pettit photographed from orbit are a little different.
