About this work

STS072-730-079 (11-20 Jan. 1996) --- Asuncion, capital city of Paraguay, South America (population 1.2 million) appears as de-vegetated countryside, in this 70mm photograph from the Space Shuttle Endeavour. The frame is focused at the downtown area next to the major bend of the Paraguay river. As the intensity of land use declines away from the center, the countryside becomes greener. Large farm plots can be seen at the bottom of the view.
