NASA's MISR Provides Unique Views of Gulf Oil Slick

Top: False-color image of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, created by combining data from different color bands on two of MISR's nine cameras. The oil is visible as different shades of cyan, while other features such as clouds and land appear close to their natural color. The Mississippi River Delta is visible in the upper left. Bottom: Two MISR camera views of a smoke plume believed to be from a controlled burn of oil on the ocean surface.
