Europe's Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellite mission captured this stunning image of south-central Morocco, showing the the city of Ouarzazate, the Anti-Atlas Mountains, and the Ouarzazate solar power station.

This false-color image of south-central Morocco was taken by the Copernicus Sentinel-2 mission and released on the European Space Agency website.

The image shows the northern edge of the Anti-Atlas Mountains, which sit just below the city of Ouarzazate. The upper half of the photo is dominated by a vast desert landscape, which is home to the Ouarzazate solar power station.
