“The goal with this sequence was to bring a bit more attention to the station itself, including the humans aboard it, particularly Don Pettit (appearing in the final shot) who took many of the sequences in this montage,” Peterson wrote in his YouTube description.

In 2011, Peterson put together a similar video using footage from the ISS.

There, he wrote, “To those brave men and women who fly alone in the night to take us to the stars, we salute you.”
