Landsat 8's Operational Land Imager (OLI) captured this icy view of Ayon Island on June 17, 2024. The island's low-lying tundra and the shorelines create a picturesque view from its high latitude location in the East Siberian Sea. This unique polar landmass is separated from the mainland by the Malyy Chaunskiy Strait.

For 25 years, the Landsat 7 satellite acquired millions of images of Earth that supported studies of how land is used and how it has changed across urban, agriculture, forest, snow and ice-covered areas around the globe, as well as natural and manmade disasters.
