National Mall from Orbit
Astronauts
on board the International Space Station captured this view of
Washington, D.C. and the surrounding area on Sunday, Jan. 20, one day
before the public Inauguration of President Barack Obama.
This
detailed view shows the Potomac River and its bridges at left, with
National Mall at the center, stretching eastward from the Lincoln
Memorial to the Washington Monument toward the Capitol building, where
the inaugural ceremony will be held.
NASA has been
participating in inaugural activities this weekend, culminating in the
appearance of the Curiosity rover and Orion spacecraft in the Inaugural
Parade on Monday, Jan. 21. See
