ISS01-E-5078 (December 2000) --- A northwesterly-looking view from over the Gulf of Mexico reveals much of Galveston and Harris Counties, as photographed with a digital still camera from the Earth-orbiting International Space Station (ISS). Galveston Island and Galveston Bay take up most of the right side of the frame, with parts of southern Harris County and even part of north Harris County, including Lake Houston, are visible on the left side of the frame. The Texas City Dike is in the upper right quadrant of the image.
