A space fan has combined 600 photos from the International Space Station to create a video of the earth from above.
Created by science teacher James Drake, the time lapse video has become a YouTube hit, watched almost 2.5million times since it was uploaded last week.

The clip travels from the Pacific Ocean south over the Americas before reaching Antarctica and sunlight.
