Time lapse is the new black these days. Throw in a gazzilion images of Earth from the orbiting International space station, a mix of northern lights, a trippy soundtrack, a few storm cells complete with lightning strikes and a few thousand electricity grids beaming up – and you have a cooler than cool piece of work on your hands.

Thank you Michael König. Thank you NASA.

There’s not a lot else I can say to enhance this jaw dropping viewing experience, so just watch and be dazzled.
