Re:map of the world at night
onlyhalf of the world is in "night time" at once. if this is a composite map it totally isn't reliable because of the variation in time each bit of surface are was recorded. that and the angle at which the heat/light is being recorded from would completely throw off readings. unless the some sort of sattelite that ran half the circumfrence of the earth and orbited at a speed which would allow it to be at everywhere in the world at the exact same time (on the clock not in general, which BTW you couldn't anyway unless timezones were continuously variable) this is complete bullshit.
that being said, it's pretty cool to look at huh? can you imagine what the stars would look like from, say, mongolia? or somewhere real deep in africa? that'd be amazing.
