The nighttime city lights of Tokyo, capital city of Japan, as seen from the International Space Station. I took this image on Exedition 72, with Nikon Z9 during an orbital pass over the central Honshu island. The bright lights of Shibuya and Shinjuku are hard to miss!

Can actually see my favorite Tokyo hotel, Hilton Odaiba, from space! Pretty easy to make out down the shore line from the Rainbow Bridge. My second favorite Hilton hotel in Shinjuku is just a white blur lol.
