A Time-Lapse Video of a Rocket Launch as Seen from Space [Video]

Last week, on November 16, a Soyuz-FG rocket was launched from Kazakhstan to deliver two and a half tons of material to the ISS. The launch was photographed from the ISS itself, but no video was available for viewing, so photography enthusiast and member of the Italian Space and Astronautics Association Riccardo Rossi used the pictures to create a time-lapse video of the launch.

Watch, and be sure to view this one in full screen, and in as good a resolution as your screen can manage.
