International Space Station (ISS). 

POS KUPANG. COM - Foto yang dibagikan oleh akun Facebook badan antariksa Amerika Serikat, NASA, menjadi viral di kalangan netizen Indonesia.

Foto yang diambil dari International Space Station (ISS) ini sebenarnya sudah diunggah oleh akun NASA pada 21 Maret 2016.

Tapi, belakangan malah baru menjadi viral.

Dalam postingan ini, NASA mengunggah foto Jawa Timur dan Bali.

Dalam keterangannya, NASA mengaku beruntung bisa mengambil foto.

Alasannya, Indonesia, sebagai negara yang dilalui garis khatulistiwa, ternyata seringkali ditutupi oleh awan.

Para awak di ISS pun akhirnya mengaku beruntung mengambil foto sebagian wilayah Indonesia dalam kondisi terang, meski tidak utuh.

Yang diambil oleh awak ISS adalah Jawa Timur, termasuk Madura, serta Pulau Bali dan Lombok.

Uniknya, NASA memberi keterangan bahwa ada yang berbeda pada penampakan Surabaya.

Dalam foto itu, Surabaya memang menjadi satu-satunya wilayah yang terlihat disinari sinar terang.

NASA menyebut, sinar itu adalah pantulan matahari di lautan.

Kota Surabaya pun juga disebut NASA dalam penjelasannya.

East Indonesia Island Chain As an equatorial country, Indonesia is often obscured by cloud cover. An astronaut aboard the International Space Station recently seized the opportunity of a relatively storm-free day to photograph nearly half the length of #Indonesia’s main island chain. Using a short lens and looking to the horizon for a panoramic effect, the astronaut captured this vast view that includes both clear skies and a murky, region-wide smoke pall. The smoke comes from fires caused by lightning strikes and by forest clearing by humans in Indonesia and northern Australia. In this photograph looking from west to east, #Java is in the foreground, #Bali and #Lombok are near the center, and smaller islands trail off toward the horizon. More distant islands such as Sumba and Timor are almost invisible; each is more than 1600 kilometers (1,000 miles) distant from the spacecraft. The brightest reflection of the Sun off the sea surface occurs silhouettes Surabaya (population 2.8 million), Indonesia’s second-largest city. Against this background of regional smoke, a line of volcanoes appears in sharp detail. Volcanoes are the backbone of the islands, which have been formed by the collision of the Australian tectonic plate (right) with the Asian plate (left). Note that the name of each volcano is labeled in italics. White plumes show that at least six volcanoes were emitting steam and smoke during this ISS orbit. Even though the plumes are short (80 kilometers; 50 miles), they are prominent because the volcanoes stand above the smoky air layer near the surface. The plumes are also strikingly parallel, aligned with winds from the northeast. Every day, astronauts are sent memos alerting them to dynamic events—such as volcanic eruptions and fires—so that they might observe them from space.

Selain penampakan Surabaya, penampakan sejumlah gunung berapi di Jatim pun disebut, termasuk Gunung tertinggi di Pulau Jawa, yakni Semeru.
