One of the Expedition 40 crew members aboard the International Space Station used an 80mm lens on a digital still camera to photograph this image of the Turks and Caicos Islands.
Those pictured include components of the Caicos — Providenciales, North Caicos, Grand Caicos and East Caicos. The Turks Islands, including Grand Turk (under clouds), are on the right.
