Join us for a special episode of NSF Live featuring NASA astronaut and astrophotographer Don Pettit, joining us from the International Space Station. Don launched aboard Soyuz MS-26 in September 2024 and is currently part of the Expedition 72 crew.
We’ll explore the techniques and challenges of capturing images in space, a field in which Don has created a remarkable portfolio, including stunning star trails and other unique views of Earth and the cosmos.
The Interview is conducted by NSF photographer Jack Beyer. Following the interview with Don Pettit, he will be joined by NSF photographers Max Evans and D Wise.

That camera mount should definitely have been included in the regular payload sent up. Thank you Dan's relatives for your sacrifice on the altar of photography!
I am confused. Wasn't ISS decommissioned years ago and burned in orbit?

Orbital sidereal drive photography is bananas I thought it was a cgi render! Don is a genius for building that
Nice music
