The views are an excellent material. Several places can positively be recognized, as California in the U.S., then The Baja California Peninsula and the Gulf, Most of the Mexican territory, the Yucatán Peninsula, Guatemala and most of Central America, and Panama; then it switches to views over Antarctica and the Aurora Australis, then the Artic and the Auroras Borealis; the we can clearly see Southeastern United States, the Florida Peninsula with the Gulf of Mexico on the right, Cuba, Puerto Rico; it jumps after over the Baltic Sea, where we can clearly see the south of Sweden and Denkmark, the coast of northern Poland, Germany, Holland and Belgium with the coast of the English Channel (La Manche) on the right side while it passes over the center of Europe in a S.E. direction (we see the Mediterranean far down on the right) and it reaches over Italy, the Adriatic, Greece and Turkey, we can clearly recognize the shape of Cyprus in the middle of the Mediterranean and the West Coast of Turkey, Israel and Lebanon, the lights of Alexandria in Egypt with The Nile, and the Suez Canal to its left widening in the Red Sea with a global view of the Middle East where we can easily tell Saudi Arabia. It is a Great, material, however, in order to recognize all that above, we have to watch it over and over several times, as everything passes too fast. That was, in my opinion, a mistake done by the creators of the video, especially considering that the original material was taken at a much slower rythm (we have to remember that the ISS closes a whole turn around the Earth in 90 minutes [one and a half hours] and this video seems to make a whole turn in around two minutes!! That's the only thing to regret about, unfortunately, because for the rest is a fantastic thing!! Congratulations!!
