This is a really cool pic of the Earth at Night.

Put your cursor over the picture and increase the size. You can see the "grids" of major roads in the Central U.S. and cities/towns along major roadways.

BMT I did the same thing. Africa and South America were not very well lit. I thought Australia was interesting, only a few lights on the coast and the outback was dark.

Thanks, Sdiver. For as dark as it gets out here at night, our little island sure does look bright. :cool:
