We'll wrap up this look at the first decade of the International Space Station with a couple more views of Earth. This image, from October 13, 2000, shows a 15-kilometer stretch of the Brahmaputra River in Tibet.

Like the earlier view of London, this image, ISS003-E-6632, is from NASA's Gateway to Astronaut Photography of Earth feature. It was the most-downloaded image from that feature for the week of November 19, 2008.
