In the middle December 2008 cloudless sky made possible to make a clear photograph of Tibet. On December 18, 2008 system MODIS, located on board the satellite Of terra of agency NASA, made this photograph in the natural colors.
The snowy caps of some summits and the partially covered with ice lakes in this alpine region, were called name “roof of peace” (NASA/Jeff Of schmaltz, MODIS Of rapid Of response Of team, Goddard Of space Of flight Of center)

On December 13, 1999, with the aid of the system Of [usovershenstvovannogo] [Kartopostroitelya]
with the classification of geological regions plus (ETM+), established on the satellite Of landsat of 7 agencies NASA, was made the photograph of the national park Of sidi Of toui, located in southern half of Tunisia, near the Libyan boundary.
In the territory of this guarded park (with width approximately on the order of 7 km), it is possible to see natural vegetation. Park was based in 1993 for averting [opustynivaniya] of region.
The consequences of continuous agriculture, excessive pasturing and drought can be estimated, after looking at the barren earth surrounding park. (NASA/Jesse Of allen/Landsat, USGS)

Even at the most snow-covered places on the Earth there are sections, uncovered by snow. In Antarctica, between sea of Ross and [Vostochno]-[antarkticheskiy] by icy panel, is located the group of in parallel being been arranged valleys.Known as Dry Of valleys (dry valleys), they are almost incessantly blown through by the down winds - cold, dry air, which is carried downward to the sea from the elevations of icy panel.
Refuge in the dry valleys - accumulation of glaciers and the covered with ice lakes. This spectrozonal photograph was made a system ASTER of agency NASA from the satellite Of terra, on November 29, 2000. (NASA/Jesse Of allen, NASA/GSFC/METI/ERSDAC/JAROS, U.S. /Japan ASTER Of science Of team)
Approximately 480 to 320 kilometers, Dasht- e Of lut - large salt desert on the southeast of Iran. In this photograph, performedin the natural colors by the system ASTER of agency NASA from the satellite Of terra on May 13, 2006, is visible the section of the southeastern part Dasht- e Of lut. This region from the sand,
and here are found some of the highest in the world dunes, some of them reach in the height of 300 meters (1000 feet) (NASA/Jesse Of allen, Earth Of observatory, NASA/GSFC/MITI/ERSDAC/JAROS, U.S. /Japan ASTER Of science Of team)
During the last glacial period, the Canadian island Of akimiski was buried under ice, with thickness into several hundred meters, but from that moment as went away ice, island began to rise (raising high-altitude mark), new beach zones appeared,
rivers and lakes were formed, and trees and another vegetation began to grow in the new territories. This photograph Of akimiski island was made a satellite Of landsat 7 on August 9, 2000. (NASA/Jesse Of allen, Landsat, University of Of maryland's Of global Of land Of cover Of facility)

In this photograph, made by an astronaut on August 19, 2008, in Amazon and floodlands of numerous lakes is reflected the glitter of the rays of the setting sun. Are here seized order 150 kilometers of Amazon, at a distance approximately
1000 kilometers into the depth of continent from Atlantic Ocean. This sequence was caught by the crew of 17 expeditions of international orbital station on August 19, 2008. (NASA/JSC)

On May 18, 1980, during the volcanic eruption San -[Gelens] (Mount St. Helens), northern side crumbled, and massive flow from the stone, the silt and the volcanic fragments was carried downward along the mountain.
This photograph, made on October 28, 2008 by an astronaut from the international orbital station, shows to us the place of incident almost three decades after eruption - is still noticeable the damage
, substituted to afforestations in the region of gathering avalanche. From the south side of mountain the landscape is covered with dense green forest, while from the northern side vegetation rare, especially at high altitudes. (NASA/JSC)

In April 2001, the scanning spectroradiometer of average permission MODIS, Terra of agency NASA established on the satellite, photographed the dusty storm turned above China. The confidently collecting revolutions cyclone turned above China counterclockwise, moving, thus, the walls of dust.
Thick, yellowish- brown dust is so dense which not only hides the earth's surface, but also almost which forms its own relief, raising the crests of dust under the clouds. The width of the spiral arm of white clouds is the approximately 200 km (NASA/Jesse Of allen, Robert Simmon/MODIS science of team)

The photograph of the bear glacier Of the [kenayskogo] peninsula of bay Alaska is made on August 8, 2005 from the satellite IKONOS. In this photograph the region of the washing out, where the glacier begins to melt, is shown.
The foot of glacier being risen upward along the slope is riddled by the clefts - cracks in ice, which were appeared because of the displacements of glacier over the uneven surface.
Nearer to the middle of glacier begin dark gray strips. In proportion to the displacement of glacier they are filled by mud and fragments of cliffs. When converge two glaciers, as in our case,
mud and fragments are displaced to the surface from the parallel strips or the middle deposits. (Photograph from the satellite IKONOS Of geoEye)

This crater is located in the depth of desert the Sahara. Having a form of almost ideal circle, its width is 1.9 kilometers (1.2 miles), and the height of external edge - 100 meters (330[futov]). This crater is arranged on the extensive plane of the rock, which was being formed for hundreds of millions years before the appearance of the first dinosaurs on the Earth. Contemporary geologists have long ago argued about the reasons for the appearance of this crater, some of them are inclined to the idea of the volcanic formation of crater.
However, with the more careful study of structure, it is possible to reveal that this petrified “lava” - in actuality the mountain, molten from the impact of meteorite about the
Earth. System ASTER, established on the satellite Of terra of agency NASA made a photograph Of tenoumer crater in the Mauritania on January 24, 2008. (NASA, Jesse Of allen, NASA/GSFC/METI/ERSDAC/JAROS, U.S. /Japan ASTER Of science Of team)
The south of Khartoum, Sudan - place, where they are connected the Nile and the blue Nile, and the giddy systematization of irrigation pour on it lies through entire state. Several small “bare” sections of the earth - this of villa.

The mountain Of harrat Of khaybar in Saudi Arabia contains the set of the types of the volcanic rock and impressive reliefs of the earth's crust. Some of them are represented in this photograph, made by an astronaut from the international orbital station on March 31, 2008. Jabal(“mountain” in Arabic) al Of qidr was formed from the flows of the lava of dark liquid basalt of several eruptions. Jabal Of abyad, in the center of photograph, was formed of the thicker lava, rich in quartz, called also rhyolite. (NASA-JSC)
This photograph of forest on the north of the republic of the Congo was made on June 27, 2002 a commercial satellite Of ikonos.In the center of photograph dirt timber-carrying roads intersect (orange lines). This photograph - one of hundred of photographs, obtained with the aid of the commercial satellite and the satellite of agency NASA,
was used by scientists of the research center “Of woods Of hole” for compiling of the map of the arrangement of timber-carrying roads and cutting down of forest in the territory into 4 million square kilometers of tropical African scaffolding to 3 decades periods of future 2003[goda] (NASA /Jesse Allen, IKONOS, Nadine Of laporte, Woods Of hole Of research Of center)

These are the photograph of southeastern province the farce in the south of Iran, made in the false- natural tones, reflects the bed of river, which is cut through to the northeast through the arid earth of mountains. The broad band of the earth, covered with the violent vegetation of agricultural land, repeats the bends of dry delta and it scatters along the road, which goes in parallel to the line of ridge.
The near-boundary regions of the valley of bright green agricultural zone smoothly pass into the pale verdure (or irrigating channels). Photograph was made a system ASTER from the satellite Of terra of agency NASA on October 12, 2004 (NASA/Jesse Of allen, NASA/GSFC/METI/ERSDAC/JAROS, U.S. /Japan ASTER Of science Of team)
