It is surrounded by a ring-shaped lake called the Manicouagan Reservoir and is part of a major hydroelectric system that contributes significantly to Quebec’s energy supply. The International Space Station was orbiting 263 miles above Canada's cold, dry wintry landscape at the time of this photograph. Credit: NASA/Chris Williams
