EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous scene at Pearl Harbor, USA. Taken by the GeoEye-1 satellite on December 7th, 2011, exactly seventy years after the infamous Pearl Harbor Attack of 1941, it showcases the USS Missouri docked at Battleship Row in all its grandeur. The image reveals an awe-inspiring sight as crowds of people gather around this historical warship, paying their respects to those who lost their lives during World War II. The significance of this location cannot be overstated. Pearl Harbor stands as a symbol of resilience and remembrance for Americans and people worldwide. As the sun shines brightly over the harbor's tranquil waters, it serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by brave men and women in defense of freedom. The presence of the USS Missouri adds another layer to this powerful image. This legendary vessel played a pivotal role in ending World War II when Japan formally surrendered on her deck in Tokyo Bay. Its imposing stature commands attention from both visitors and history enthusiasts alike. This photograph not only captures a historic moment but also highlights how satellite imagery has revolutionized our ability to observe Earth from space. It is through advancements like these that we gain invaluable insights into our environment and geography while preserving significant moments in human history for generations to come.
