14. Jet Stream Convergence
14. Jet Stream Convergence

This is a closer and more detailed view of the same jet stream feature taken by the 41-D crew. The point of convergence of the two air streams is precisely located by this photograph. The sharpness of the cloud edges is well illustrated. Shadows mark the cloud edges against a sunlit Namibian backdrop.

STS 41-D, August-September 1984. Picture #14-31-092.
