Live from YouTube come these incredible satellite videos of the world at night (h/t: Felix Salmon). Members of Expedition 6 to the International Space Station attempted to record these images and the results were merely blurs. Since then, they have managed to assemble a tracking system and manually cancel orbital motion and obtain, for the first time, sharp images of cities from space.

Take an orbital tour around the world and see cities at night.
