EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Dardanelles, a significant strait located in northwestern Turkey. Stretching over 61 kilometers, this narrow passage separates European Turkey from Asiatic Turkey. The satellite image captures the stunning geographical features of this vital transportation route between the Black Sea and the Mediterranean Sea. The Dardanelles is a lifeline connecting the Aegean Sea to the Sea of Marmara, opening up at its far right. With a maximum width of 7 kilometers, it narrows down to just 1,600 meters in certain areas known as "the Narrows". This breathtaking view from space allows us to appreciate how Earth's geography shapes our world. As we explore this remarkable satellite image, we witness Europe and Asia coming together through this strategic land bridge. The ribbon-like strait serves as both a physical and symbolic link between two continents. Its importance cannot be overstated as it facilitates trade and cultural exchange while providing an essential passage for maritime transportation. Beyond its practical significance, this photograph also highlights the beauty of our planet's natural environment. From space, we gain a unique perspective on how land formations interact with bodies of water like never before. Science Photo Library has once again captured an awe-inspiring moment that reminds us of Earth's interconnectedness and immense geographical diversity.
