EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Thunderstorm over Brazil" takes us back to the STS-41B mission of February 1984, when the crew of the Space Shuttle Challenger captured this mesmerizing sight. The image showcases a powerful cumulonimbus storm cloud formation looming over the Parana River in southern Brazil. Its immense size and intensity are evident as it stretches upwards for more than 10 kilometers, fueled by a robust central up-current. The photograph also reveals overshooting tops and anvil clouds, characteristic features of such thunderstorms. These meteorological phenomena add to the dramatic nature of this scene, showcasing Mother Nature's raw power and beauty from space. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of South America's diverse climate and its propensity for intense weather events like thunderstorms. This particular moment serves as a testament to both the awe-inspiring forces at play within our atmosphere and humanity's ability to capture these extraordinary sights through scientific exploration. With its rich detail and stunning composition, Science Photo Library has once again transported us into another world - one where we can appreciate the wonders that lie beyond our own horizons without leaving our seats.
