Image Caption: In this view of the Gamma Ray Observatory over Baja California, Mexico (31.5N, 113.0W), the Salton Sea and Imperial Valley region of California where the mouth of the Colorado River empties into the Sea of Cortez is clearly visible. The Los Angeles basin is partially visible below the GRO's left solar panel. Looking due east, across Mexico and south Texas, toward the Earth limb, the Texas Gulf coast is faintly visible.
