About the Images and ISS

The ISS orbits Earth at 370-460 kilometers altitude, enabling it to capture rare perspectives of planetary life, landmass formations, and human settlement patterns.

The image of India clearly marks major cities like Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru, while the heartland and coastal regions radiate distinct patterns of light that reveal the vast spread of habitation.
