ISS040-E-105768 (23 Aug. 2014) --- One of the Expedition 40 crew members aboard the International Space Station, flying at an altitude of 221 nautical miles, captured this image of Egypt's Nile River and Lake Nasser on Aug. 23, 2014. The Aswan High Dam is to the right of center in the 70mm focal-length image, as the Nile flows southward (to the right in this image) toward Cairo and it?s Mediterranean delta (both out of frame at right). The Red Sea, which runs more or less parallel to the Nile, is out of frame at bottom.
