| San Francisco from the International Space Station: This image
shows a photograph of San Francisco taken as the International Space
Station passed 383 km overhead on November 10, 2000. It was taken by
astronauts looking out one of the station windows using 35 mm film
and a 400 mm lens. The view includes the area stretching from the
Golden Gate Bridge in the north to the San Mateo Bridge on the
southeast. In the full-resolution version major landmarks are easily distinguished, and wider streets such as Van Ness and Geary can be easily distinguished from the less distinct grid of smaller streets. Digitized from film at high resolution, each pixel in this image represents 14.6 m on the ground. |
