EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the vast and mesmerizing beauty of the Saudi Arabian desert. Taken by Landsat 1 on September 24th, 1972, this combined infrared and visible satellite image captures the remarkable Jabal Tuwayq ridge in central Saudi Arabia's rocky desert region of Najd. Stretching for hundreds of kilometers, Jabal Tuwayq stands as a prominent feature in this arid landscape. As part of a large escarpment, it majestically rises up to 250 meters above the plain to its west. The photograph reveals an intricate network of dry water courses known as wadis that drain from the ridge towards the east. With North positioned at the top, this stunning image provides a unique perspective on Saudi Arabia's geography and environment. The sandy terrain contrasts with the ruggedness of Jabal Tuwayq, creating an awe-inspiring sight that reflects both tranquility and resilience. As we delve into this visual masterpiece captured from space by Landsat, we are reminded of Earth's diverse landscapes and their profound impact on our planet. This print serves as a testament to nature's artistry and invites us to appreciate the wonders found within our own world.
