Description: "Derry, Northern Ireland, and the rugged coast facing the North Atlantic." – Caption by astronaut Chris Hadfield on board the International Space Station. This is one of a set of eight pictures of Ireland taken from earth orbit that were posted on the internet by Hadfield to celebrate Saint Patrick's Day in 2013. The Inishowen Peninsula on the north coast of Ireland stands out clearly in this picture, surrounded by Lough Swilly (left) and Lough Foyle (right). The dark River Foyle winds through the countryside and empties into Lough Foyle at the city of Derry.
