Summary[edit]

Description
English: On April 20, 2023, a nearly cloud-free spring day allowed the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on board NASA’s Aqua satellite to acquire a gorgeous true-color image of the United Kingdom and Ireland. The United Kingdom (UK) stretches over both the large island of Great Britain and small islands surrounding it (east) and the northernmost section of the island of Ireland. Scotland, England, and Wales are located on Great Britain with Northern Ireland sitting on the northern sixth of the island of Ireland. The southern five-sixths of the island of Ireland belong to the country of Ireland. Sediment stains the waters of the Irish Sea, which separates the two islands.
