About this work

STS060-94-007 (3-11 Feb 1994) --- The Isle of Wight, over 380 square kilometers, is a diamond-shaped island located off the south coast of England. Separated from the mainland by The Solent, a narrow channel of water, the island is a popular resort area due to its scenery and mild climate. Sediment from English Lowland drainage systems, most notably the River Test, is visible entering The Solent and spilling into the English Channel.
