It's World Water Day! Did you know that less than 3% of Earth's water is freshwater. This includes the Great Lakes, which are visible in this oblique 35mm image exposed from a space shuttle mission. Lake Ontario is in the foreground. The Niagara Falls area and Lake Erie are illuminated by sunglint just below center frame. Detroit is visible just above center.
