Photo Prints from Science Photo Library
Eastern Himalayas, satellite image
Eastern Himalayas, satellite image. North is at top. Snow is white, vegetation is red, barren areas are light blue and water is dark blue. This is a region of the eastern Himalayas, in China, north-east of Bhutan. The landscape consists of soaring mountains, with snow-capped peaks and vegetation on the lower slopes. Major rivers run through the valleys, fed by glacial meltwater. The barren areas (light blue) are where sediment has been deposited by the rivers. The area shown in this image is around 60 kilometres wide. The image data includes infrared wavelengths, and was obtained on 17 February 2002, using the ASTER sensor on the Terra satellite

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the awe-inspiring beauty of the Eastern Himalayas, as seen from space. The image, taken by the ASTER sensor on the Terra satellite on 17 February 2002, reveals a breathtaking landscape that stretches across China's northeastern region and extends northward to Bhutan. The picture highlights the remarkable contrast between snow-capped peaks and vibrant red vegetation adorning the lower slopes of towering mountains. Majestic rivers meander through deep valleys, nourished by glacial meltwater. In areas where these rivers have deposited sediment over time, barren patches appear in a striking light blue hue. Covering an area approximately 60 kilometers wide, this satellite image captures not only visible wavelengths but also infrared ones. This additional data provides valuable insights into various aspects of Earth science and observation. Immersed in this mesmerizing scene is a sense of tranquility and grandeur that reminds us of nature's immense power and resilience. It serves as a reminder of our planet's diverse landscapes and their delicate balance. As we gaze upon this extraordinary photograph captured by Science Photo Library, we are transported to a world where icy peaks meet lush forests, where mighty rivers carve their paths through rugged terrain. It invites us to appreciate the wonders that exist beyond our everyday lives while inspiring us to protect and cherish our natural environment for generations to come.
