Andes Mountains as seen from Gemini VII

Waves of clouds along the east flanks of the Andes Mountains cast off an orange glow by the low angle of the sun in the West. The dark area to the left is the Earth's terminator. This view was photographed by astronaut Frank Borman and James A. Lovell during the Gemini VII mission, looking South from Northern Bolivia across the Andes. The Intermontane Salt Basins are visible in the background.
