NASA astronaut shares timelapse video of Southern Lights from space

(NBC, KYMA) - NASA astronaut Jessica Meir shared a spectacular timelapse of the Southern Lights from the SpaceX Dragon spacecraft.

She wrote on social media the aurora was caused by a recent solar event.

However, she says this one was unlike others that she has seen as it "danced and snaked its way directly below us, putting on quite a show."

She wrote, "I am in awe of this ethereal and emotionally evocative phenomenon."
