STS082-746-071 (11-21 Feb. 1997) --- This nearly-vertical view, photographed from the Space Shuttle Discovery, shows the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) over Shark Bay. Shallowest parts of the bay appear light blue. In this view of Australia's arid west, sets of sand dunes are clearly visible on Peron Peninsula (lower center) from southwest to northeast (bottom left to top right), blown by the prevailing wind. Hartog Island lies bottom right.
