Northern Italy and the Alps

06-02-2018


Today’s Video of the Day comes from the European Space Agency’s Earth from Space series and features a look at northern Italy and the Alps.

These images were captured by the Copernicus Sentinel-2B satellite and reveal the transition from the stunning mountains down to the lower plains that surround the city of Milan.

Also visible is the southern portion of Lake Maggiore, the longest lake in Italy that also extends into Switzerland.
