MODIS Rapid Response Team at NASA GSFC. Dense smog settled over
the North China Plain on February 20, 2011. The featureless gray-brown
haze is so thick that the ground is not visible in parts of this photo-like
image taken at 11:35 a.m. by the Moderate Resolution Imaging
Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Terra satellite.
