NASA saw all three hurricanes on Earth churning from space in one day

A new video from NASA shows all three powerful hurricanes currently churning waters on Earth as seen by the International Space Station in one day.

Two hurricanes in the Pacific — Madeline and Lester — have the potential to threaten Hawaii, and Hurricane Gaston is still in the open Atlantic Ocean. 

All three of them are on stark display in the new time-lapse video taken on Aug. 30 from the Space Station.

The station's cameras were able to capture all of these storms in one day thanks to the incredible speed at which the outpost is moving. 

In order to stay in orbit, the laboratory needs to speed above Earth at more than 17,000 miles per hour, making a full circuit of the planet every 90 minutes, and giving astronauts an amazing view of all of Earth's landscapes. Read more...
