What Niagara Falls looks like from space

Living here all my life I've had a lot of views of the Falls. I remember what it looked like when I was a kid, big and thundering. I've seen pictures of what it was like when cameras first came out and when Marilyn Monroe used it as a prop. I've even seen the pictures from 1969 when the Falls was turned off. But never before have I seen it from space.

The picture above is merely a cropped version of a much larger and awe-inspiring photo. Click the image link below to take a look at the real thing.
