Astronauts captured this photograph shortly after deadly flash floods swept the city.
Astronaut photograph ISS032-E-6129 was acquired on July 10, 2012, with a Nikon D3X digital camera using a 1200 mm lens, and is provided by the ISS Crew Earth Observations experiment and Image Science & Analysis Laboratory, Johnson Space Center. The aerial view of Krymsk was taken on July 7 and was credited by The Moscow Times to Russian Governor Tkachyov of the Krasnodar region. The ISS image was taken by the Expedition 32 crew. It has been cropped and enhanced to improve contrast, and lens artifacts have been removed. The International Space Station Program supports the laboratory as part of the ISS National Lab to help astronauts take pictures of Earth that will be of the greatest value to scientists and the public, and to make those images freely available on the Internet. Additional images taken by astronauts and cosmonauts can be viewed at the NASA/JSC Gateway to Astronaut Photography of Earth. Caption by Cynthia A. Evans, NASA-JSC.
