Astronaut Ivan Vagner captured from ISS the Angel Falls, Venezuela.
Angel Falls is the world’s tallest uninterrupted waterfall, with a height of 979m and a plunge of 807m. They are named after Jimmie Angel, a U.S. aviator, who was the first person to fly over the falls. The waterfall drops over the edge of the Auyán-tepui mountain in the Canaima National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site in the Gran Sabana region of Bolívar State. The height figure, 979m, mostly consists of the main plunge but also includes about 400m of sloped cascade and rapids below the drop and a 30m high plunge downstream of the talus rapids.
The local scenery on the ground is as follows.
