  STS066-103-049 Mississippi River and Clinton, Iowa, U.S.A. November 1994
The agricultural lands of northwestern Illinois and eastern Iowa are featured in this southwest-looking, low-oblique photograph. The Mississippi River is discernible from Lake Clinton and Clinton (right of center) to the quad cities to the south. The Wapsipinicon River enters the Mississippi River southwest of Clinton, a rail center in a rich corn- and livestock-producing area.
