Earth Observations taken by the Expedition Seven crew

ISS007-E-09408 (5 July 2003) --- This nadir view of London, England, was downlinked from the International Space Station by one of the Expedition 7 crew members. A number of man-made landmarks are visible in the digital image, along with easily recognizable natural features, such as the River Thames, seen winding primarily in an East-West direction across the frame. The crew members could not help but be thinking of the Grand Slam Tournament being played at this time at the Wimbledon All England Tennis Club located in the south west of London. Wimbledon is just out of frame below the southwards bulge of the Thames.
