An astronaut has captured a jaw-dropping view of Elon Musk’s Starlink satellites from above.

American spaceman Don Pettit used long exposure camera techniques to capture a jaw-dropping image from 257 miles up on the International Space Station.

The Expedition 72 Flight Engineer described his impressive picture – shared 13 January – as “One photo with: Milkyway, Zodical light, Starlink satellites as streaks, stars as pin points, atmosphere on edge showing OH emission as burned umber (my favorite Crayon color), soon to rise sun, and cities at night as streaks. Taken two days ago from Dragon Crew 9 vehicle port window.”
