...the previous photo is a testament to the power of nature over a long period of time (~75 years). The source I quickly glanced at said this occurred in 1914.

"I love to try to capture that quality of the Earth looking like the
world's just started or been destroyed and is starting all over
again - that feeling of being way back in the past or way ahead in the future."

Keeping an eye on Isabel


Astronaut Ed Lu snapped this photo of the eye of Hurricane Isabel from the International Space Station on September 13, 2003 at 11:18 UTC. At the time, Isabel was located about 450
miles northeast of Puerto Rico. It had dropped to a Category 4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale, packing winds of 150 miles per hour with gusts up to 184 miles per hour.

After originating in the eastern Atlantic west of the Cape Verde Islands, Isabel became the second major hurricane of the 2003 Atlantic season when it was declared a Category 3 storm
by the National Hurricane Center on September 8. Over the next four days, Isabel strengthened into an extremely powerful Category 5 hurricane with winds estimated at 160 mph before
dropping to a Category 4 hurricane on September 13.

This photo shows the structure of Isabel’s eyewall. The image, ISS007-E-14745, was taken with a 180mm lens on a digital camera.

Station Photographs Hurricane Isabel

This close-up view of Hurricane Isabel was taken by one of the Expedition 7 crewmembers onboard the International Space Station. In addition to the station's cameras,
NASA satellites provided imagery of the storm, as it approached the eastern seaboard of the United States.
