A Grand, Snow-Rimmed Canyon

🌄 just saw these pics from the International Space Station of the Grand Canyon after a winter storm... it's insane how much snow can cover those high desert areas! 🤯 I've always loved the vastness of the American West but these photos are like a whole different world - you don't even see the canyon as a massive chasm, more like a mountain range. 🏔️ It's all about perspective and the light in space is so intense... what an incredible view! 👀
 
🤔 I'm not entirely convinced about these photos being taken from space 🌠. I mean, anyone can take a photo of the Grand Canyon with a decent camera and edit it to make it look like it was shot from space 📸. Don't get me wrong, the images do look pretty cool and all, but without some actual satellite data or confirmation from NASA, I'm gonna remain skeptical 🤷‍♂️. How did they even position the camera on the ISS to capture a U shape in the canyon? It's just too perfect 📚. Need more sources before I buy into this one 👀.
 
whoa that's crazy! 🤯 these pics of the Grand Canyon look so different from what I'm used to seeing... like a normal mountain range or something 😮. relief inversion is such a cool concept - didn't realize how it could affect our perception of things #SpaceExploration #GrandCanyon #ReliefInversion 🌄️‍🔍
 
I'm lovin' these pics but I gotta say, it's wild that we're seeing a "mountain range" in the Grand Canyon 🏔️. Like, who would've thought our eyes play tricks on us like this? Relief inversion is a real thing now and it's making me question all my childhood memories of watching documentaries about the Grand Canyon 🤯. But at the same time, I'm glad we're getting a fresh perspective on this iconic landmark thanks to space!
