I stared at this for about an hour last night. I was most fascinated by Appalachia, with the lights arranged down the folded valleys, and how griddy the Midwest is.
The closer I looked at it, especially east of the Rockies (i.e. away from where I live), the more I got lost, the less I could figure out where I was from the surrounding pattern.
California was easy, but then, I live here.
And the Gulf of Mexico outside the Mississippi River Delta, wow. Those are all lights from oil platforms, no?
Click through to Flickr to see this NASA image, and to find the giganto-version.
