This view shows the southern side of Cape Cod, from Woods Hole on the left to Chatham on the right. The islands of Martha's Vineyard (left) and Nantucket (right) are separated by the deep water (blue) of the Muskeget channel. Shifting sandbars show up clearly in this image.   An offshore wind farm of wind-driven electricity-producing windmills has been proposed for Horseshoe Shoals, the shallow (brown-white) area north of the Muskeget channel.   The landforms in this image show the effects of glaciation; a terminal moraine can be traced across both Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket Island.
