  **STS082-720-035**   Western Australia. View SSE from south of Shark Bay through the southwestern corner of the continent. Perth is arrayed along the Swan River estuary, midway down the coast. South of Perth old beach ridges and shorelines, now emergent, can be seen. The sharp, south-trending boundary between the forested block (on the left; east) and the grassier country (right; west) is a fault that has juxtaposed Precambrian igneous and metamorphic rocks with younger Mesozoic sedimentary strata. The topographically higher block receives a little more rain, is covered by well-drained sandy soil, and supports more substantial vegetation.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            
  **STS082-706-016**   Kenya, East Africa. Splendid northwesterly view showing Lake Turkana, Mt. Kenya (17,057 ft), and Mt. Kilimanjaro (19,340 ft) within the structural context of the Kenya branch of the East African rift. The great volcanoes have risen where the rift valleys change trend; the same is true of Mt. Elgon (14,778 ft) which is just off the left edge of this photo. Lake Natron is dimly visible to the northwest of Kilimanjaro.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
  **STS082-704-005**   Southern Mexico and northern Central America. Spectacular shot of three seas, five nations, three plates of the Earth\'s crust, and two plate boundaries. Yucatan Peninsula extends northward, with the Gulf of Mexico on the west and Caribbean on the east---the blue waters surrounding reefs off Belize lie along the eastern Yucatan coast, and Laguna de Terminos on the west. The Isthmus of Tehuantepec, one of the sites proposed for a canal connecting the Atlantic and Pacific, is in left center; the Golfo de Tehuantepec and Golfo de Fonseca are at the west and east ends, respectively, of the Pacific coastal margin seen here. The volcanoes along the Pacific coast mark the convergent margin between the Cocos plate (Pacific side), which is moving northeastward with respect to the North American (Mexico, Yucatan, Belize) and Caribbean plates (Guatemala, El Salvador). The Motagua, Polochic and Jocotan are long, arcing faults crossing the frame from WSW to ENE; they are elements of the transform boundary (Swan Island transform) between the North American and Caribbean plates. Blocks south of the transform zone are moving east with respect to that to the north; the transform zone is an extension of the Cayman Ridge/trench system. The next two pairs of photos are beautifully detailed views within this scene.

Fine detailed view of the strike-slip faults of the transform boundary between the North American and Caribbean plates. The major fault zone south of the large light-appearing Angostura Lake valley in the eastern part of the photo is the Polochic. The deep northerly valley in the upper left photo appears on the left side of the next frame.   **STS082-731-79**   Guatemala. Eastward continuations of the Motogua and Polochic faults in the transform plate boundary, as well as the volcanoes of the convergent boundary are well displayed here. Lake Atitlan in mid-frame occupies the center of a caldera complex; Santiago Atitlan (11,804 ft) is the larger and more easterly of the two volcanoes forming the southern shore of the lake. Guatemala City is within a north-trending graben---one of several formed by stretching of the crust of the Caribbean plate as it is pulled away to the east.      
  **STS082-730-030**   El Salvador, Nicaragua. Fine photo of the volcanic arc including the bend in plate boundary, expressed in the alignment of the volcanoes. Cosiguina (see next frame) is at the corner where the plate margin changes strike. Landward of the volcano line is a wide easterly fault valley that has formed by back-arc extension. That east-southeast-trending graben becomes wider and deeper to the south, where it contains huge lakes such as Lago Nicaragua (not in this view).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
  **STS082-731-83**    El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua. Detailed nadir view of Golfo de Fonseca and Cosiguina volcano. The explosion of Cosiguina in August, 1859 has been the largest historical eruption to date in the western hemisphere. The volcano developed at the intersection of two structural complexes---a bend in the convergent plate margin, and a north-trending fault valley (graben) that intersects the volcanic arc. Amapala, on the flank of another volcano, is the port for Honduras. Extensive maricultural development can be observed in the eastern gulf.
