An Astronaut’s View of Jewel-toned Lakes: Astronauts onboard the International Space Station often observe small, otherwise unnoticed water bodies on the ground due to their unusual colors. For example, Lake Gribben which lies to the southeast of Ishpeming in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Iron ore is extracted from the Tilden/Empire Mine complex visible to the north of the lake.
