A beautiful view of Washington, D.C. from space, captured by Landsat-7 Satellite in 2005. The U.S. Capitol can be discerned near the center of the image, the Washington Monument and Lincoln Memorial are at left center – directly to the left (west) of the Capitol. Just southwest of the Lincoln Memorial, across the Potomac River in the state of Virginia, is the Arlington Memorial Cemetery. The emerald green peninsula to the south of the Capitol is East Potomac Park. The donut-like structure to the right (east) of the Capitol is Robert F. Kennedy Stadium. Portions of the state of Maryland can be seen at upper left and also at lower right. Credit: NASA #NASA #WashingtonDC #fromspace #earthart
