Earth's Mediterranean region fills the view from the space station

An ultra-realistic, ultra-high-definition photograph capturing a sublime, cloudless view of the Earth from the International Space Station (ISS). A major, recognizable continental landmass, such as the entire Mediterranean region including Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East, is perfectly sharp and vividly detailed with its arid, sandy, and green textures against the deep blue oceans. The atmosphere forms a distinct, thin blue arc on the curved horizon of the Earth, contrasting with the absolute, starry deep blackness of space. The ISS itself is partially visible, with a metallic truss structure and a large solar panel wing in the foreground, framing the Earth view. The scene is illuminated by brilliant, direct sunlight, creating sharp contrasts and a sense of infinite scale and depth. Captured with a professional space camera, high fidelity textures.
