Though the River Thames pours into the North Sea in |
|
southeast England, the river does not end there. Its |
|
plume of fresh water, colored tan by the earth picked up |
|
on its journey across England, flows through the dark |
|
blue waters of the North Sea along the coast of Belgium, |
|
the Netherlands, and Germany before fading in a cloud of |
|
green near Denmark. The Moderate Resolution Imaging |
|
Spectroradiometer ( modis.gsfc.nasa.gov MODIS ) on NASA's |
|
terra.nasa.gov/ Terra satellite captured this photo-like |
|
image on March 26, 2007. Apart from a light veil of haze |
|
hanging over northern Germany and Denmark, skies over |
|
Northern Europe were remarkably cloud free. |
