STS104-714-9 South Africa: Southwestern Cape Prov, South Africa, with Cedarberg Mountains.

STS104-714-5 South Africa: Saldanha Bay, Southwestern Cape Prov, South Africa.

STS104-706-BN Australia: Agricultural landscapes (W Australia near Perth?).

STS104-710-56 Italy: West coast of Italy; Tiber River delta, Rome region.

STS104-706-AL China: Island in Chang Jiang (Yangtze) R mouth island, with fine view the city of Shanghai.

STS104-706-AB China: Glint on broad bend of the lower Chang Jiang (Yangtze) River, between Shanghai and Nanjing.

STS104-706-Z China: Center point glint on lakes just north of the lower Chang Jiang (Yangtze) River. The Grand Canal that joins the Yellow basin to the north with the Chang Jiang basin follows the lakes near the city of Yangzhou.

STS104-726-27 Turkey: Istanbul.

STS104-704-78 United States: Big Island, Hawaii. Dark lava flows decorate the flanks of the great shield-shaped volcano Mauna Loa; Mauna Kea lies farther north, across a topographic swale that is visible here. The area where lava was flowing into the sea during this mission is under the band of clouds along the northeast side of the island.

STS104-704-70 United States: Hawaiian Islands. Molokai, Lanai, Maui, Kahoolawe, and Hawaii (from foreground to background) fill the field of view. Inactive volcano Haleakala makes up most of the larger lobe of Maui. As this piece of the Pacific oceanic plate has moved NNW-ward across a mantle hotspot, volcanoes have grown above the sea surface to form the islands. Hawaii is at the volcanically active SE end of the chain; a submarine volcano -- not yet an island -- lies just south of Hawaii.
