Summary
| Description |
English: Shadows accentuate several features of the Pico de Orizaba, a stratovolcano, visible in this astronaut photograph from the International Space Station. The 300-meter-deep summit crater is clearly visible against surrounding ice and snow cover near image centre. Several lava flows extend down the flanks of the volcano, made readily visible by prominent cooling ridges along their sides known as flow levees. One of the most clearly visible examples is located on the south-west flank of the cone. |
