Rocky Mountains - USGS Earth as Art

Item # 2405889

United States Geological Survey

<p>United States Geological Survey is a government agency that studies the geology of the US, as well as its effects and resources. Through their research, the USGS has created stunning images of the earth as seen from satellites, highlighting the natural beauty of the world.</p>

<p>What appears to be a stroke of thick red paint is actually a remarkable interplay of light and cloud in the Canadian Rockies. Angling through them is part of the Rocky Mountain Trench, a valley that extends from Montana, USA, to just south of the Yukon Territory. Low clouds filled a part of the Trench near the border between the Canadian provinces of Alberta and British Columbia. The light-reflecting nature of the clouds coupled with low sun elevation resulted in this startling effect. February 1, 2004.</p>
