Uploader comment: The clouds swirling over the Norwegian Sea parted in late April, 2012, allowing the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) aboard NASA’s Terra satellite to glimpse snow-covered Bjørnøya sitting in the dark blue sea. MODIS captured this image on April 22, 2012 at 11:20 UTC (1:20 pm local time).
