An Apollo 10 view of Earth from 26,000 nautical miles photographed from
the spacecraft during its translunar journey toward the Moon. While the
Yucatan
Peninsula is obscured by clouds, nearly all of Mexico north of the
Istmus of Tehuantepec can be clearly delineated. The Gulf of California
and Baja California and
the San Joaquin Valley can be easily identified. Also, the delta of
the Rio Grande River and the Texas coast are visible.
