NASA. LARGE FORMAT. Typhoon Yuri, Pacific Ocean November 1991. This spectacular low-angle photo shows the bowl-shaped eye (center of photo) of Typhoon Yuri in the western Pacific Ocean, just west of the Northern Mariana Islands. The wall of the eye reaches down almost to the surface of the sea, a distance of nearly 13,800 meters. In this case, the eye is filled with clouds, but in many cases the sea surface can be seen through the eye. Yuri reached super typhoon status, with maximum sustained winds estimated at 270 kilometers per hour, and gusts up to 320 kilometers per hour. The storm moved westward toward the Philippine Islands before turning northeastward into the North Pacific Ocean, avoiding any significant landmass. Vintage chromogenic print. Numbering in the margin on the front. Legend on label on the back. 40,6 x 40,6 cm with margins.
