Crete vue de l'espace - Crete seen from space - La Crete vue from the International Space Station (ISS) on 22 July 2011. Crete is the largest and most heavily populated island of Greece (or the Hellenic Republic). The island stretches approximately 260 kilometers (161 miles) from west to east, and it is roughly 60 kilometers (37 miles) across at its widest point. The rugged terrain of Crete includes mountains, plateaus, and several deep gorges. The largest city on the island, Heraklion, sits on the northern coastline. Several smaller islands ring Crete. Two of the largest of these, Dia and Gavdos, are sparsely populated year - round, although Gavdos hosts numerous summer visitors. The western and central parts of Crete appear surrounded by quicksilver in this astronaut photograph taken from the International Space Station. This phenomenon is known as sunglint, caused by light reflecting off of the sea surface directly towards the observer. The point of maximum reflectance is visible as a bright white region to the northwest of the island. Surface currents causing variations in the degree of reflectance are visible near the southwestern shoreline of Crete and the smaller island of Gavdos (image lower left). This astronaut photograph was acquired on July 22, 2011, with a Nikon D3S digital camera using a 48 mm lens
