(July
28, 2003) -- Expedition 7 NASA ISS Science Officer Ed Lu captured
this video of noctilucent clouds from the International Space Station.
Scientists are intrigued by the phenomenon because the clouds, which
are made up of tiny ice crystals, are extremely high in the atmosphere,
and there is no known method of transport to move them into such an
altitude. Lu noted that these clouds were at least 100 kilometers
(62 miles) above the Earth and stretched from western Europe to Siberia.
In this video, the crescent Moon is visible, as are flashes of lightning
below the cloud deck. Read more about noctilucent
clouds.

Scientists are intrigued by the phenomenon because the clouds, which
are made up of tiny ice crystals, are extremely high in the atmosphere,
and there is no known method of transport to move them into such an
altitude. Scientists believe that the high clouds may be a new phenomenon
-- possibly a result of the industrial age. Lu noted that these clouds
were at least 100 kilometers (62 miles) above the Earth and stretched
from western Europe to Siberia. Read more about noctilucent

(Sept
15, 2003) -- Expedition 7 NASA ISS Science Officer Ed Lu captured
this video of Hurricane Isabel as it churned in the Atlantic Ocean.
Isabel was a Category 5 storm at the time, with sustained winds of
240 kilometers (150 miles) per hour. It would reach the East Coast
of the United States three days later with sustained winds of 161
kilometers (100 miles) per hour.
