## Caption

This is what the eye of one of the most powerful hurricanes ever recorded looks like, in the late afternoon sun. The video shows the center of a category 5 hurricane with winds up to 185 mph (295 kmh), and was taken by @NASA's GOES-16 Satellite on September 5, 2017. We hope everyone in Irma's path stays safe.
