City Lights - Black Marble

NASA and NOAA jointly manage the Suomi satellite, which takes high resolution images.  The first video is about 2 minutes long and gives an explanation of what the satellite images show.   


The second video is about 30 seconds of Black Marble animated images. 


 I've already lost track of how many times I watched it!

I don't know how many years I've enjoyed the earth lights at night. These new ones just make it fresh all over again. Seeing the brightest areas then checking where the earth turns dark tells so many stories.
