Dr. Sian Proctor, astronaut, geoscientist, pilot and poet, flew on the first all-private mission to Earth orbit, on SpaceX Dragon. While in orbit, she found time to observe our beautiful planet, and wrote "Earth Light," a poem about her mesmerizing experience. The poem captures the emotional impact of orbiting Earth - of being "bathed in Earth light." (#40254)
