Salar de Coipasa, Bolivia, ISS image. Photograph of Salar de Coipasa, Bolivia, taken by astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The Salar de Coipasa, located in the Altiplano region of western Bolivia, covers an area of approximately 2500 square kilometers. The region comprises of arid closed basins in which evaporation of mineral-rich waters has led to the formation of thick, flat-laying salt deposits (pale areas towards the upper half and at far left of image). The dark areas (above and below centre middle) derives from dark coloured volcanic sediment and rock. The Lauca River (left of centre) feeds Lake Coipasa (lower half of image).

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of Salar de Coipasa, Bolivia, as seen from the International Space Station (ISS). Taken by astronauts on September 20th, 2012, this image captures the vast expanse of this unique region located in western Bolivia's Altiplano. Covering an area of approximately 2500 square kilometers, Salar de Coipasa is a remarkable sight to behold. The pale areas visible towards the upper half and far left of the image are thick salt deposits formed through evaporation of mineral-rich waters in arid closed basins. These flat-laying salt formations create a stunning contrast against the dark-colored volcanic sediment and rock found above and below center middle. The photograph also highlights the presence of Lauca River flowing towards Lake Coipasa in the lower half of the image. This river serves as a vital water source for sustaining life within this arid landscape. As we gaze upon this extraordinary snapshot taken from space, we are reminded not only of Earth's breathtaking natural wonders but also our ability to explore and document them through astronaut photography. This image stands as a testament to human curiosity and scientific exploration that has allowed us to capture such awe-inspiring moments from our planet's perspective beyond borders or boundaries.
