About this work
ISS008-E-19643 (27 March 2004) --- This image featuring Hurricane Catarina was taken by an Expedition 8 crewmember on the International Space Station (ISS). Until this past week only two tropical cyclones had ever been noted in the South Atlantic Basin, and no hurricanes. However, late last week, a circulation center well off the coast of southern Brazil developed tropical cyclone characteristics and continued to intensify as it moved westward.
