Antique Framed Print : Chilean glaciers
Framed Photos from Science Photo Library
Chilean glaciers
Chilean glaciers, photographed from the orbiting International Space Station. This is the Cerro Pared Norte coastal mountains in southern Chile. The valleys between the snow-covered mountains form lakes. Meltwater from glaciers (running vertically at centre) deposit sediment-laden water (green) into the lakes, the waters of which eventually make their way to the sea. Photographed in December 2000

EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking print captures the mesmerizing beauty of Chilean glaciers as seen from the orbiting International Space Station. The image showcases the Cerro Pared Norte coastal mountains in southern Chile, adorned with a pristine layer of snow and ice. Nestled between these majestic peaks are valleys that have transformed into stunning lakes. The glaciers, visible as vertical streaks at the center of the photograph, continuously release meltwater into these lakes. This water carries sediments along its journey, resulting in a striking green hue within the lakes. Eventually, this glacial runoff finds its way to the sea. Taken in December 2000, this snapshot offers an awe-inspiring glimpse into Earth's natural wonders. The towering Andes Mountains dominate the landscape while frozen bodies of water reflect their magnificence. This photo serves as a poignant reminder of our planet's fragile environment and highlights both the grandeur and vulnerability of Chile's glaciers. It is a testament to how space observation can provide invaluable insights into our world's geography and climate patterns. Captured by Science Photo Library for scientific purposes rather than commercial use, this image invites contemplation about humanity's role in preserving such precious ecosystems for future generations to admire and cherish.
