An 80-mile ice fracture on a huge lake was so big it could be seen from space.
Amazing footage captured from a US weather satellite showed the crack as it appeared across the ice on Lake Erie.
It was captured by NOAA’s GOES East (GOES-19) as the Great Lakes endure one of their harshest winters on record.
The satellite imaged the fissure forming on Sunday, Feb. 8, stretching from Port Burwell, Canada, to near Cleveland, Ohio.
NOAA commented: “Maybe the ice really IS all it’s cracked up to be on Lake Erie!”
