Poster Art-Print Description:
ISS013-E-19323 (13 May 2006) --- The largest airport in Texas, Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) International Airport, is featured in this image photographed by an Expedition 13 crewmember on the International Space Station. DFW is also the fourth largest in the world, and occupies more surface area than the entire island of Manhattan in New York. The airport is officially owned by the cities of Dallas and Fort Worth, but is sited within the city limits of four neighboring cities (Coppell, Euless, Grapevine, and Irving). This oblique image captures the entire airport and portions of the surrounding Dallas-Forth Worth metropolitan area. The white rooftops of the new - completed in 2005 - International Terminal D are also distinct from less reflective rooftops of the older terminals. A sense of the size of the airport is provided by the approximately 2,800 meters long northwest-southeast oriented runway to the west of Terminal D. The oblique viewing angle also accentuates light reflection off of North Lake (image upper right), giving the water surface a grey-green cast.
