(CNN Student News) -- November 17, 2011 View from Above AZUZ: Well, before we go today, having an office with a window can be a little distracting. (BEGIN VIDEO CLIP) AZUZ (voice-over): But with a view like this, maybe not so bad. These pictures were taken from the international space station as it made its way in orbit around the earth. The green glow that you see at the top of your screen there is the aurora borealis. It`s also called the northern lights. They can be seen from Earth, but only in certain spots. So when someone gets to view them from this spectacular angle. (END VIDEO CLIP) AZUZ: . it`s enough to make the rest of us green with envy. Hopefully, our puns don`t make you green with sickness. Either way, it`s going to wrap things up for us today. For CNN Student News, I`m Carl Azuz. We will see you back here tomorrow, because Friday`s are awesome.
