Image Caption: Pictured near Earth's horizon, Hurricane Michelle made landfall on Cuba a few hours later on November 4, 2001, with sustained winds of 135 miles per hour. The eye can be seen in the upper right quadrant of this oblique view. The most signficant impact was in the Matanzas province near Pinar del Rio. This scene was captured by one of the Expedition Three crew members aboard the International Space Station (ISS) using a digital still camera.
