Aero-News Picture Of The Day (09.02.04)

Frances Bears Down On Bahamas

NASA is keeping a close watch over Hurricane Frances as it churns toward the United States. International Space Station cameras are capturing spectacular images of the storm from above. On the Florida coast, NASA's Kennedy Space Center (KSC) is making preparations to protect the Space Shuttle fleet, spacecraft hardware, and facilities against damage.

Video of Hurricane Frances taken by external television cameras aboard the Space Station at about 7:30 a.m. EDT today vividly depicts a classically shaped storm in the Atlantic Ocean. The video, along with additional views captured during the weekend, is airing on the NASA TV Video File throughout the day. NASA will release new footage of Frances as it becomes available.

NASA also has still images of the storm, taken by Astronaut Mike Fincke aboard the International Space Station, as well as NASA's Terra satellite.
