Looks like noise of some kind. Somebody should manually remove those. The image is beautiful!

Because it takes an exposure of several seconds, so ISS must be deep within Earth's shadow to avoid any glare from an illuminated ISS. Also, ISS shouldn't be too lit by the Moon either.

It's also because that picture was looking towards the center of the galaxy, the brightest part of the Milky Way, making it much more obvious than it usually would be. But I have seen many shots from ISS where MW is visible.

It's high saturation red/blue noise and so is easy to remove with LAB channel despeckling. Didn't get it entirely, but one pass makes a nice improvement.

| Yes, much better. Thank you.
Is it an northern hemisphere impairment that I feel that the Milky Way is upside down in that picture?
