With just three weeks left at the International Space Station (ISS), British astronaut Tim Peake is making the best of his time.

He recently shared a time-lapse of Venus rising behind the Aurora (it's unclear whether it was the northern or southern lights) shot from the ISS.

The time-lapse was created by an exposure every second for around two and a half minutes.

Along with the video, he also shared the Nikon kit that he uses to capture photographs in space.

Tim Peake is scheduled to return to Earth on June 18.
