About this work

ISS017-E-009734 (20 June 2008) --- Island of Ischia, Italy is featured in this image photographed by an Expedition 17 crewmember on the International Space Station. The island of Ischia is located approximately 30 kilometers to the southwest of Naples, in the western Bay of Naples (part of the Tyrrenhian Sea). While the island's rocks are volcanic in origin, much of the island's geology and current appearance is characterized by uplifted -- horst -- and downdropped -- graben -- fault structures.
