Summary

Description
English: On December 25, 2021, the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on board NASA’s Aqua satellite acquired a true-color image centered on snow-covered Sweden (north) and Denmark (southwest) and Germany (south). The long Jutland Peninsula of western Denmark is connected to northern Germany, while the eastern half of that country is comprised mostly of smaller islands. The larger islands of Denmark are joined by some of the longest bridges in the world—the Storstrøm, the Great Belt, and the Øresund, which joins Denmark to Sweden. The names correspond to the straits between the islands, with the Storstrom the western-most strait and the Oresund the eastern-most. These straits connect the Baltic Sea (east) with the Kattegat (west).
