More space news and info at: http://www.coconutsciencelab.com - this six-minute time-lapse video from space was compiled from 12,500 images taken by ESA astronaut Alexander Gerst.

While filming aboard the International Space Station, Alexander would often set cameras to automatically take pictures at regular intervals. Combining these images gives the time-lapse effect seen in this video.
