Argentina was featured in this image photographed by an Expedition One crewmember
onboard the International Space Station (ISS). This is the third largest
glacier of the Southern Patagonian Ice Field with an estimated area of over
800 square kilometers. This long, north-south oriented river of ice terminates
in the northern arm of Lake Argentino. This same area was photographed during
the eighth expedition of the International Space Station just over 3 years
later. Reference photo no. ISS008-E-11807
