Summary

Description
English: This aerial image shows a surface area approximately 2 km long and 1.5 km wide in the mainstream of the glacier at its western ridge. Meltwater creeks produce small ponds with blue-green water and the ice crevices are coverd by snow drift. The scenario is lit by the midnight sun. The plane had initiated its decline towards Longyearbyen and was at an estimated height of 3000m.
Deutsch: Das Foto zeigt einen Oberflächen-Ausschnitt am westlichen Rand des Nathorstbreen von etwa 2km Länge und 1.5 km Breite. Schmelzwasserbäche produzieren kleine blaugrüne Tümpel und die Gletscherspalten sind mit Schneeverwehungen gefüllt. Die Szene ist durch die Mitternachtssonne beleuchtet. Das Flugzeug hatte zu diesem Zeitpunkt seinen Landeanflug auf Longyearbyen begonnen und befand sich etwa auf 3000m Höhe.
