This picture shows the Earth’s city lights. The brighter the area is, it means the place should be urbanized – and if there’s no brightness at all, it either means that there’s no people living in that area at all or it’s not urbanized yet. It’s a quite beautiful shot taken from the space by NASA. Can you see lights in your country on the picture above? Click here for a much larger view ( 2400 x 1200 JPEG – 534.4KB).
