The earth is totally amazing!!
Is that the actual speed or was it sped up?

I think it was sped up since it takes 90 mins to complete an orbit

cool, I think the actual speed would've been better, But I'm sure the 90 min version would take to long to upload hehe

Yep, evident from the frequent lightning strikes, when going over the storm clouds.

Love observing nature/planet/animals/space.

I always suspected Africa does not exist!

Does the ISS not go over Africa or were we just left out?
