STS058-103-080 (18 Oct-1 Nov 1993) --- Japan's modern megalopolis is seen in this nadir view in great detail. More than 80 vessels can be seen at the anchorage's in Tokyo Bay. The gardens of the Emperor's Palace are seen in this circular area in the upper left quadrant. Even greater detail of this area was captured in the simultaneous color infrared image acquired during this space shuttle mission. (That photo number is STS058-110-085.)
