S39-84-29AE (28 April-6 May 1991) --- In the center of this 70mm frame, surrounded by mountainous terrain, is Gora Konder crater in the USSR. The 57-degree inclination of Discovery's orbit allowed photographs of seldom observed areas of Earth such as this. The picture was exposed with a 70mm handheld camera from overhead windows on Discovery's aft flight deck.
