ALT A white graph, with relative height in meters on the Y-axis and latitude in degrees on the X-axis. The Y-axis starts around 290 meters and runs to 370 meters. The X-axis starts at 33.5260 degrees and runs to about 33.5295 degrees. The graph features a few green lines, each created by tiny green pixel dots very close together. From 33.5265 to about 33.5270 degrees, the green line is flatly horizontal just below 300 meters. Where this line leaves off, a green sloping line forms a hump near the center of the graph, until about 33.5287 degrees. The humps edges are about 335 meters high and its apex is about 350 meters high. This is the corner of the stadium dome. Where the dome’s edge ends, a short, flat green line runs until about 33.5390 degrees at about 320 meters. Finally, the flat line representing the ground picks back up and runs at just below 300 meters to the end of the X-axis.

ALT A labelled satellite map of Glendale, Arizona, which looks like a grid of browns with little pixels of house roofs and bigger white shapes of buildings. There's a white square drawn around an white oval, labelled State Farm Stadium. An inset shows a closer view of the stadium, in grey tones, with a neon green line passing over the northwest corner of the building's roof. This is labelled 'Portion of ICESat-2 overpass.'

Photon Phrightday: Mount Terror
On this Photon Phrightday, Tom Neumann takes a look at a pass from ICESat-2 over the large shield volcano, Mount Terror, on Ross Island, Antarctica.

ALT Glaciers flow into a frozen fjord dotted with icebergs in northern Greenland, as seen from the window of NASA’s Gulfstream V jet. The water of the fjord is covered in thin ice that is thicker and chunkier near the shore. The land appears brown with snow and ice on top of the higher peaks. The glaciers appear as frozen 'rivers' of white ice flowing into the fjord.
