Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: In a view from high altitude, height can be a difficult thing to gauge. The highest of clouds can appear to sit on a flat plane, as if they were at the same elevation as the ocean or land surface. In this image, however, texture, shape and shadows lend definition to mushrooming thunderheads over the Indonesian island of Flores. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Aqua satellite acquired this image on the afternoon of Dec. 2, 013. Français : Tour convective au-dessus de l'île de Flores (Indonésie). Photo prise le 2 décembre 2013 à partir du spectromètre radio à résolution moyenne. |
