STS060-105-038 Imperial Valley, California, U.S.A. February 1994
This color infrared photograph and STS-060-101-038 show the same features of the Imperial Valley (irrigated field patterns; U.S.-Mexico border; urban areas; Sand Hills; and the Salton Sea); however, two different types of film were used. The Russian film in this photograph recorded vegetation and field patterns in green; whereas, STS-060-101-038 was created with color infrared film showing vegetation in shades of red.
